is a Japanese koryū sword-fighting martial art founded in the late Muromachi period by Katayama Hōki-no-kami Fujiwara Hisayasu (片山伯耆守藤原久安) (1575–1650). ==History== Although often stated to be a student of Hayashizaki Jinsuke (林崎甚助), the ryū itself states that Katayama Hisayasu inherited eighteen secret sword techniques from his uncle Katayama Shōan.〔Kayatama Busuke (1892)〕 Additionally Katayama Hisayasu was also said to have been the younger brother of Takenouchi Hisamori (竹内久盛）, founder of Takenouchi ryū （竹内流）.〔Watatani (1971), p.62〕 In 1596 he traveled to Atago Shrine in Kyoto and for seven days and seven nights trained and prayed continuously. In a divine dream, Hisayasu was supposedly given insight and was said to have attained enlightenment to the mysteries of the art of ''iai''.〔Kayatama Hisayuki (1756)〕 Using this insight and the teachings received from his uncle he formed his own tradition of swordsmanship. In 1610 he was called to the Royal Palace to demonstrate before the emperor. He demonstrated ''Iso-no-nami'', one of the teachings he received from his uncle, in front of the Emperor Go-Yōzei.〔Watatani and Yamada, (1978), p.186〕 For this he was given the court rank of''Jyu-Goi-Ge'' and made governor of Hōki province. In 1650, at the age of 76, Hisayasu died in Iwakuni, Yamaguchi Prefecture.〔 The original name for Hisayasu's tradition was said to be ''Ikkan-ryū'' (一貫流) for a time, but was known within the Katayama family as ''Katayama-ryū'' (片山流）. Katayama Hisayasu's teaching also became widely spread in Kumamoto and the name Hōki-ryū (伯耆流) and Katayama Hōki-ryū (片山伯耆流) became more widely known there and throughout the country. The present day the tradition is generally referred to as just ''Hōki-ryū''. The art had been handed down in the Katayama family (in Iwakuni)and the Hoshino family (in Kumamoto), however the family of the last Katayama head was wiped out in World War II and that direct line, known as Katayama-ryū, is no longer extant. The Hoshino family in Kumamoto regularly maintained contact with the Katayama family〔Niwata, (1994), p.134〕 and the majority of groups practicing Hōki-ryū today come from the Hoshino lineage. Today the Hōki-ryū tradition is today in its 12th or 13th generation. Using ''Iso-no-nami'' as a base, Hisayasu and later generations of the Katayama and Hoshino families developed and established over seventy sword forms〔 although many of these have been lost in most groups practicing Hōki-ryū today. Presently, fifteen basic forms form the basis of nearly all Hōki-ryū groups, with different groups having varying numbers of the remaining kata surviving . These fifteen forms are divided to two sets; six forms in ''Omote'' and nine forms in ''Chudan''. Most forms are started from the ''seiza'' posture. 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「Hōki-ryū」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
