	Kokei - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kokei (also Kogei; 皇慶: 977?-1049), the author of the Enoshima Engi, was an eminent Japanese Buddhist monk.
		He is said to have commenced his career as a monk at the age of seven, when he climbed Mt.
		Kokei is credited with the building of the Enryuji (円隆寺) Temple in Tango (丹後; ancient name for region to the north of Kyoto on Japan Sea) during the period 995-998.

		Kokei was frustrated, but he was a brave trooper.
		The concept of limited editions was unknown to the classical Ukiyo-e and to 99 percent of the prints produced until the 60s and 70s of the 20th century.
		Prints by Kokei have the advantage of being truly limited and numbered and the blocks were destroyed.

	Limited Edition Woodblock by Tsuruya Kokei
		Tsuruya Kokei was the official portrait artist at the Kabuki-za Theater, Ginza, Tokyo, until his retirement last year.
		Originally, his prints were sold to theater patrons in the lobby, and later were also available by subscription through the Kokei Kai, a membership-only subscription society formed to make his prints available to those living too far away to visit the Kabuki-za.
		According to the Kokei catalogue referred to above, this design is printed on tosa ganpi paper, made in Kochi Prefecture, and printed from blocks made of magnolia obovata wood.

		However Kokei's prints are self-carved and self-printed, limited editions, signed and numbered.

	GoddessIndex-1.html
		Written in Chinese by the learned Buddhist monk Kokei (皇慶) in 1047 AD, this segment of the Enoshima Engi relates an apparently fabulous story of a destructive five-headed dragon that lived in a large, swampy lake along the course of a local river in the period prior to the sixth century AD.
		However, many details related in the history are accurate for the time frame covered by the story (a period of 1,000-some years ending in 552 AD according to traditional, unconfirmed dates used by Kokei), when much of the area was still emerging from under the water of Sagami Bay.
		The extensive correspondence between the details of this segment of Kokei's history and the supporting evidence and documentation suggests that Kokei had access to fairly accurate information on the "proto-history" of this region of Japan.

	SummaryConclusions
		Lastly, we have looked into the physical conditions conditions prevailing in the vicinity prior to late May 552 AD (when the goddess Benzaiten is said to have descended upon Enoshima).
		In view of these findings, there is a reasonable probability that Kokei's description was based on accurate materials and that he followed his materials faithfully, at least as regards this segment of the Enoshima Engi.
		Assuming that the identification and interpretation of the dragon in this study is correct, the Enoshima Engi says that the devastation caused by floods and flash floods increased in the fifth and sixth centuries AD, to the point that floodwaters entered villages, carrying away children and forcing the villagers to move to higher ground.

		Kokei’s name appears in the inscription on the wooden statue of the Dainichi nyorai (Skt Mahavairocana tathagata; the Buddha who expounded Esoteric Buddhism) carved in 1176 by his son UNKEI for the temple of Enjoji in Nara (in situ), thus suggesting that Kokei supervised this work.
		It is conjectured that Kokei was the disciple of the Nara busshi Kocho (fl early 12th century).
		For creating the statuary in the five-storey pagoda at the temple of Rengeoin in Kyoto in 1177, he was invested by the government with the honorary ecclesiastical title of hokkyo (Bridge of the Law), a rank accorded to monks and Buddhist masters and of higher status than had been bestowed on his predecessors.
