was the 22nd emperor of Japan,〔Imperial Household Agency (''Kunaichō''): ( 清寧天皇 (22) ); retrieved 2013-8-28.〕 according to the traditional order of succession.〔Titsingh, Isaac. (1834). (''Annales des empereurs du japon,'' pp. 28-29 ); Brown, Delmer M. (1979). ( ''Gukanshō,'' pp. 258-259 ); Varley, H. Paul. (1980). ''Jinnō Shōtōki'', pp. 115-116.〕 No firm dates can be assigned to this emperor's life or reign, but he is conventionally considered to have reigned from 480–484.〔Ponsonby-Fane, Richard. (1959). ''The Imperial House of Japan,'' p. 41.〕 ==Legendary narrative== Seinei was a 5th-century monarch.〔Kelly, Charles F. ( "Kofun Culture," ) ( Japanese Archaeology. ) 27 April 2009.〕 The reign of Emperor Kimmei (509?–571 AD), the 29th emperor,〔Titsingh, (pp. 34–36 ); Brown, ( pp. 261–262 ); Varley, pp. 123–124.〕 is the first for which contemporary historiography is able to assign verifiable dates;〔Hoye, Timothy. (1999). ''Japanese Politics: Fixed and Floating Worlds,'' p. 78; excerpt, "According to legend, the first Japanese emperor was Jimmu. Along with the next 13 emperors, Jimmu is not considered an actual, historical figure. Historically verifiable Emperors of Japan date from the early sixth century with Kimmei.〕 however, the conventionally accepted names and dates of the early emperors were not to be confirmed as "traditional" until the reign of Emperor Kammu (737–806), the 50th sovereign of the Yamato dynasty.〔Aston, William. (1896). ''Nihongi,'' pp. 109.〕 According to ''Kojiki'' and ''Nihonshoki'', he was a son of Emperor Yūryaku and his consort Katsuragi no Karahime. Seinei's full sister was Princess Takuhatahime. His name in birth was ''Shiraka''. It is said that the color of his hair was white since birth.〔Titsingh, p. 29; n.b., there is speculation that this unusual hair color suggests albinism.〕 After the death of his father, Seinei won the fight against Prince Hoshikawa, his brother, for the throne and so succeeded his father. (Prince Hoshikawa Rebellion) Seinei's contemporary title would not have been ''tennō'', as most historians believe this title was not introduced until the reigns of Emperor Tenmu and Empress Jitō. Rather, it was presumably ''Sumeramikoto'' or ''Amenoshita Shiroshimesu Ōkimi'' (治天下大王), meaning "the great king who rules all under heaven." Alternatively, Seinei might have been referred to as (ヤマト大王/大君) or the "Great King of Yamato." Seinei fathered no children; however, two grandsons of the 17th emperor, Emperor Richū, were found—later to ascend as Prince Oke and Prince Woke. Seinei adopted them as his heirs.〔Aston, William. (1998). ''Nihongi,'' Vol. 1, pp. 373–377.〕 The actual site of Seinei's grave is not known.〔 This emperor is traditionally venerated at a memorial Shinto shrine (''misasagi'') at Osaka. The Imperial Household Agency designates this location as Seinei's mausoleum. It is formally named ''Kawachi no Sakado no hara no misasagi ''.〔Ponsonby-Fane, p. 419.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Emperor Seinei」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
