	Bambooweb: Heian Period
		As early as 939, Taira no Masakado threatened the authority of the central government, leading an uprising in the eastern province of Hitachi, and almost simultaneously, Fujiwara no Sumitomo rebelled in the west.
		Rather than being banished, the Fujiwara were mostly retained in their old positions of civil dictator and minister of the center while being bypassed in decision making.
		In the end, the Fujiwara were destroyed, the old system of government supplanted, and the insei system left powerless as bushi took control of court affairs, marking a turning point in Japanese history.

	A Brief History of Time: Revisited
		I argue that Ben no Naishi’s memoir is highly organized toward the goal of emphasizing the sacred nature of her job as a naishi to accentuate the circular notion of sacred time even as she sought to add luster to the achievements of her literary family by recording her experiences at court in historical time.
		In Nakatomi no Yogoto (Congratulatory Words of the Nakatomi) performed at the enthronement ceremony of Konoe Tennô in 1142 and recorded in the Taiki, the diary of Fujiwara no Yorinaga (1120-1156), there is a mythological account of divine instructions for the Nakatomi to obtain sacred water for the sovereign’s meals at the Daijôsai.
		That Ben no Naishi chose the moon as the dominant imagery for her memoir was not only prophetic, it was also the perfect celestial image for the nocturnal aspects of her sacred duties and for suggesting the circular nature of sacred time the rituals enacted.

		Land was no longer hereditary but reverted to the state at the death of the owner.
		Yoritomo followed the Fujiwara form of house government and had an administrative board, a board of retainers, and a board of inquiry.
		There were no lands or other rewards to be given, however, and such disaffection, combined with overextension and the increasing defense costs, led to a decline of the Kamakura bakufu.

		With no willing successor among the genro, the Kenseito (Constitutional Party) was invited to form a cabinet under the leadership of Okuma and Itagaki, a major achievement in the opposition parties' competition with the genro.

		Fujiwara Tokihira was succeeded by Fujiwara Tadahira (880-949), who recovered the position of Kanpaku in 930.
		From 967 until the last decades of the Heianjidai, the Fujiwara dominated the Imperial Court, through the marriage of daughters to heirs to the throne and the monopolization of influential government posts.

		One of them, Otomo no Miyuki, in turn, is promoted from just some dainagon from court and a bit lazy at that to be made the instigator of the Genpei Wars (12th century civil wars between the Taira and Minamoto clans) because he possesses the Dragon Stone and it compels him to.

		For this major accomplishment he was accorded the special respects of the Minister of the Left, Fujiwara no Yorinaga (1120–56).
		Such was the quality of his work that when Sadanobu sent a poem to Saigyo (1118–90), the famous Buddhist priest 30 years his junior, Saigyo rewarded him with the unusual favour of a poem in return.

		In fact, arguably, it is the femme who has the greater possibility to receive the social advantage (if one argues that invisibility is a benefit), by replicating the performance of gender(ed) norms, thus not drawing attention or disdain to her outward appearance or behaviour.
		Japanese mothers are supposed to throw aside their careers, no matter how promising, as soon as they have children.

	artnet.com: Resource Library: Fujiwara (ii): (4) Fujiwara no Tadamichi (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		After a political and military conflict with his father, Tadazane (1078–1162), and his brother Yorinaga (1120–56), which also included the issue of succession to the throne, Tadamichi emerged triumphant and served as regent for 38 years near the end of the Heian era (794–1185).
		When he was taken by his father at the age of six for an audience with Emperor Horikawa (reg 1087–1107), he is said to have been given a calligraphy textbook by ONO NO MICHIKAZE, one of the Sanseki (‘three brush traces’; Three Masters) of calligraphy of the early Heian period.
		Tadamichi based his style on that of (2) Fujiwara no Kozei, another of the Sanseki, but developed a more deliberate, vigorous, stronger stroke, less elegant and smooth than the styles of the early Heian-period court calligraphers, and more appropriate to the tastes of the warrior classes, which were then in the ascendancy.
