Japanese: 藤原道長が権勢を振るった時代に筋を通した態度を貫き、権貴に阿らぬ人との評価を受けた。
English: Sanesuke's grandfather, Saneyori, was the eldest son of FUJIWARA no Tadahira, who served as Sadaijin (Minister of the Left) during Emperor Murakami's reign, as Kanpaku (Chief Adviser to the Emperor) during Emperor Reizei's reign, and as Sessho (Regent) during Emperor Enyu's reign.
Japanese: 祖父の実頼は摂政関白を歴任した藤原忠平の長男で、村上天皇のときに左大臣、冷泉天皇のときに関白、円融天皇のときに摂政を歴任した。
English: While Saneyori's second son, FUJIWARA no Yoritada, also served as Kanpaku to Emperor Enyu and Emperor Kazan, leading the Imperial Court, the house of Ononomiya was unable to develop a marriage relationship with the Imperial family.
Japanese: 実頼の二男の藤原頼忠も円融天皇、花山天皇の関白を務め朝政を指導したが、小野宮流は天皇との外戚関係を結べなかった。
English: Meanwhile, Saneyori's younger brother, FUJIWARA no Morosuke (house of Kujo), was cunning enough to marry his daughters into the Imperial family, and his sons, FUJIWARA no Koretada, FUJIWARA no Kanemichi, and FUJIWARA no Kaneie rose to power, successively assuming the positions of Sessho and Kanpaku.
Japanese: 一方、天皇との外戚関係を巧みにつくった実頼の弟の藤原師輔（九条流）の子の藤原伊尹、藤原兼通、藤原兼家が台頭して摂関を歴任した。
English: When Emperor Ichijo succeeded to the throne, Kaneie, who had great influence over the Imperial family as its maternal relative, was appointed as Sessho, with his lineage members taking the leading part in the Imperial government.
Japanese: 一条天皇が即位すると強い外戚関係を持つ兼家が摂政に任じられ、彼の系統が政治の主導権を握るようになった。
English: Born the fourth son of Tadatoshi, who served as Sangi (Councilor) of the Imperial government, FUJIWARA no Sanesuke was later adopted by his grandfather, Saneyori, as his son; and adored by Saneyori, he inherited the bulk of Saneyori's family territory, succeeding Saneyori as the head of the house of Ononomiya.
Japanese: 実資は参議斉敏の四男に生まれ、後に祖父の実頼の養子となり、非常に愛されて家領の多くを相続し、小野宮流を継承する。
English: Although the house of Ononomiya was a major branch of the Northern House of the Fujiwara clan, it lagged behind the house of Kujo, a minor Fujiwara branch, in the struggle for leadership between the two Sekke regent families.
Japanese: 小野宮流は藤原北家嫡流でありながら、分派であるはずの九条流に摂家の主導権を奪われた。
English: Nevertheless, the house of Ononomiya, which was more skilled in collecting records and documents and was celebrated as a house well versed in traditional court customs, is believed to have inherited an enormous number of old records and documents from Saneyori.
Japanese: しかしながら、九条流に対して記録資料の面で優れ、故実に通じる家として著名であり、実資は膨大な記録資料を実頼より継承したといわれる。
English: While little is known about its vast family territory, it is clear from various historical materials of the period that it had considerable wealth.
Japanese: その膨大な家領については未だ不明な部分も多いが、相当な財力を有していたことは、当該期史料から判明する。
English: Sanesuke was known as a scholar with an intimate knowledge of traditional court customs and a man of wealth, but he was also a person with common sense, who was able to capture the essence of things and never concealed the truth to protect his personal interests or reputation.
Japanese: 実資は故実家・資産家としても知られたが、物事の要点を押さえ、個人の利得や名声のために真実を覆さないという良識人でもあった。
English: In 989, he was appointed during the Emperor Ichijo's reign and assumed a high court official position.
Japanese: 一条天皇のときの永祚(日本)元年（989年）に参議となり公卿に列した。
English: After the death of FUJIWARA no Kaneie in 990, his son, FUJIWARA no Michitaka, became Kanpaku, while FUJIWARA no Michinaga succeeded FUJIWARA no Michikane as Sadaijin (Minister of the Left) and was allowed to audit documents submitted to the emperor; Michinaga established his control of the Imperial government after a political struggle with FUJIWARA no Korechika (Michitaka's legitimate son) and rose to power.
Japanese: 正暦元年（990年）に兼家が没すると、子の藤原道隆が関白となり、次いで藤原道兼を経て、道長が左大臣となり内覧を許され、藤原伊周（道隆の嫡子）との政争の末に主導権を握り、権勢を振るうようになる。
English: When Michinaga's daughter, FUJIWARA no Akiko, was wedded to the emperor in 999, Michinaga had a folding screen of four shaku (approximately 120 cm) wide created as a bridal gift, which was designed in such a way that Japanese waka poems, collected from well-known high court officials at the time and selected by FUJIWARA no Kinto, would be written onto it by a famous calligrapher, FUJIWARA no Yukinari.
Japanese: 長保元年（999年）道長の娘の藤原彰子が入内することになり、その調度品のひとつとして四尺の屏風をつくらせ、それは当時の公卿名士たちから和歌を募り、藤原公任が選首となり、書家の藤原行成に筆を入れさせる趣向であった。
English: However, Sanesuke, who served as Chunagon (vice-councilor of state), alone refused to write a poem despite repeated requests by Michinaga, claiming that it was unheard-of for a court official to be ordered by a minister to write a poem for a folding screen.
Japanese: このとき、中納言であった実資だけは「大臣の命を受けて、その屏風に歌をつくるなぞ、未だに前聞なし」と言って、道長から何度催促されても歌を献じるのを拒んだ。
English: However, most of the court retainers sided with Michinaga, who wielded great political power, isolating the emperor from politics and disrupting the official disciple of the Imperial Court.
Japanese: ところが朝臣の多くは権勢家の道長に阿り、天皇は孤立し、朝廷の綱紀は日々弛緩するようになった。
English: On these occasions also, Sanesuke steadfastly maintained an impartial attitude, causing the emperor to secretly depend on his support in consequence.
Japanese: この時も実資は敢然として公平な立場に努め、天皇も密かに実資に頼るようになった。
English: Among the court ladies Emperor Sanjo had frequented since he was the Crown Prince, there were Michinaga's daughter, FUJIWARA no Kenshi, and FUJIWARA no Naritoki's daughter, FUJIWARA no Seishi.
Japanese: 三条天皇には東宮（皇太子）時代からの女御に道長の娘の藤原妍子と藤原済時の娘の藤原せい子がいた。
English: When Emperor Sanjo succeeded to the throne, Kenshi was made his Chugu (empress), but had no child, while Seishi had borne Imperial Prince Atsuakira.
Japanese: 即位とともに妍子は中宮とされたが子はなく、一方、娍子は敦明親王を生んでいた。
English: In 1012, wishing to make Seishi his empress, the emperor was still unable to make up his mind, worried about what Michinaga would think about his decision, whereupon Michinaga suggested that Seishi be officially invested as the Empress.
Japanese: 長和元年（1012年）、天皇は娍子を皇后に立てるよう欲するが、道長に憚って決しかねていたところ、道長から立后の提案があった。
English: However, on the day of the investiture of the empress, Michinaga refused to attend the ceremony in order to offend the emperor, on the pretext that it was the day to visit the Chugu Kenshi, and went off to Hisashisanjo-tei (the palace of the Chugu), accompanied by other high court officials, who all agreed with him.
Japanese: ところが立后の儀式の日になると道長は嫌がらせを行い、同日を中宮妍子の参内の日として出席せず、諸公卿もこれに同調して皆中宮の東三条第へ行ってしまった。
English: The emperor sent an imperial messenger to Hisashisanjo-tei and ordered all court officials to attend the investiture ceremony, but officials jeered at the messenger, and FUJIWARA no Masamitsu, one of the Sangi of the Imperial government, even went so far as to throw stones at him.
Japanese: 天皇は勅使を東三条第へ送って出席を命じるが、諸公卿には勅使を嘲り、参議藤原正光に至っては瓦礫を投げつける始末だった。
English: Although Sanesuke was sick on that day, he visited the Imperial Palace together with Chunagon (vice-councilor of state) FUJIWARA no Takaie, saying that there were no two lords in a country just as there were no two suns in heaven.
Japanese: 実資はこの日は病身であったが「天に二日なし、土に両主なし」と言うや中納言藤原隆家とともに参内して、儀式を取り仕切った。
English: Feeling grateful for Sanesuke's virtuous behavior, Emperor Sanjo told Sukehira, Sanesuke's son, that he grew up as the Crown Prince without understanding worldly affairs and that although he had thought he would be able to control everything as he wished once he succeeded to the throne, he found himself powerless before his men, who did not obey his order to attend the investiture ceremony in fear of Sadaijin (Michinaga).
Japanese: 三条天皇は実資の態度を徳として感謝し、実資の子の資平に「朕は長く東宮にあって物情を知らず、一旦登極すれば全て意のままになると思っていたのに、后を立てるにも皆左大臣（道長）を憚り、勅命に応じようともしない。
English: Sanesuke rejoiced to hear the emperor's words that he wished to consult him about all matters from then onward.
Japanese: これからは諸事、大将と議したい」と伝え、これを聞いた実資は歓喜した。
English: However, Sanesuke was wise enough not to directly confront Michinaga and simply maintained principled behavior, while Emperor Sanjo himself was also not very trustworthy, breaking his promise to appoint Sanesuke Kurodo no to in fear of Michinaga.
Japanese: もっとも、賢明な実資は道長と正面から対決するようなことはせず、あくまで筋を通す態度を貫き、また、三条天皇も資平を蔵人頭に任じると約束しながら、道長を憚って止み沙汰にしてしまうなど、あまり頼りにはならなかった。
English: Although Emperor Sanjo continued to confront Michinaga, he later contracted an eye disease that nearly made him lose his eyesight; he was repeatedly urged by Michinaga to resign from his office, and he finally agreed to hand over the throne to Emperor Goichijo in 1016, on condition that his son, Imperial Prince Atsuakira, be made the Crown Prince.
Japanese: 道長と対立を続けた三条天皇だが、やがて失明寸前の眼病となり、道長から強く退位を迫られ、結局、長和5年（1016年）に皇子の敦明親王を東宮とすることを条件に後一条天皇に譲位した。
English: Although recommended as Shungu no daibu (Chief Officer of the Crown Prince's palace), Sanesuke declined the offer for the reason that he was getting too old for the job.
Japanese: 春宮大夫には実資が推薦されたが、実資は老衰の身であるとして固辞した。
English: When Emperor Sanjo died in 1017, Michinaga broke his promise and plotted a scheme to make Imperial Prince Atsuakira decline the offer to be appointed the Crown Prince.
Japanese: 翌寛仁元年（1017年）に三条上皇が崩御すると、約束は反故とされ、道長の画策で敦明親王は東宮を辞退している。
English: In 1019, FUJIWARA no Takaie, who served as Dazai gon no sochi (Provisional Governor-General of the Dazai-fu office in Kyushu) and fought off the attack of foreign pirates in Toi invasion, requested that his men be given rewards for their military contributions, and in response to his request, rules regarding local governments were discussed among high court officials.
Japanese: 寛仁3年（1019年）、刀伊の入寇を撃退した大宰権帥藤原隆家が部下らに対する恩賞を懇請し、これに対して諸国申請雑事定が公卿らによって行われた。
English: Dainagon (chief councilor of state) FUJIWARA no Kinto, and Chunagon FUJIWARA no Yukinari argued that Takaie's army fought before receiving the imperial charter to fight off the pirates.
Japanese: 大納言藤原公任と中納言藤原行成は、「彼らは追討の勅符が到達する以前に戦った。
English: Court nobles, who represented civilian rule, were likely to underestimate the importance of military affairs and they also tried to flatter Michinaga by downgrading Takaie, who was a younger brother of Korechika, Michinaga's political enemy.
Japanese: 貴族らは文官統治を維持するために軍事を軽く見る傾向にあり、また、隆家は道長の政敵であった伊周の弟でもあり、道長に追従したためでもある。
English: Meanwhile, Sanesuke, admitting that there were issues to be discussed about fighting the battle before receiving the imperial charter, argued that the question was not whether they received the charter.
Japanese: これに対し実資は勅符が到達する以前に戦った点には問題があることを認めつつも、「勅符が到達したかどうかは問題ではない。
English: For example, when the barbarians of Shiragi attacked Tsushima in 894, BUNYA no Yoshitomo, the governor of Tsushima, was highly rewarded for fighting off those barbarians.
Japanese: 寛平6年（894年）に新羅の凶賊が対馬を襲撃したとき、島司文室善友は直ちにこれを撃退し、賞を賜った。
English: As he pointed out in his argument, during the attack, pirates came close to the guard station, abducting more than 1,000 residents of the island and killing several hundred of them.
Japanese: 特に今回の事件は、外敵が警固所に肉薄し、各島人が一千人余りも誘拐され、数百人が殺された。
English: If their behavior were not rewarded, there would be no brave soldiers left in the imperial army - Sanesuke argued.
Japanese: もし賞さないならば、今後進んで事に当たる勇士はいなくなってしまうであろう」と弁じ立てる。
English: Sanesuke's argument was supported first by Dainagon FUJIWARA no Tadanobu, after whom Kinto and Yukinari also changed their decision, with all high court officials finally agreeing on giving reward to the soldiers.
Japanese: まず、大納言藤原斉信がこれに同意し、続いて公任・行成も翻意、ついに公卿ら皆意見を同じくして褒賞は決議された。
English: At that time, Sanesuke, who was about to be appointed the next Udaijin, was faced with the need to curry favor with his colleagues, but he made his statements to reach an impartial decision without siding with or flattering other people.
Japanese: このとき実資は右大臣に任ぜられるか否かで同僚らの歓心を買わなければいけない時期だったが、それでも付和雷同・阿諛追従することなく、ものごとの道理を滔々と陳述している。
English: While Sanesuke always acted as the head of a family opposed to the house of Kujo, he also exhibited flexible behavior toward the Kujo family, especially in his later years, requesting Michinaga and his son, FUJIWARA no Yorimichi, to help his adopted son, Sukehira, to succeed him as the head of the family and to inherit the family property intact.
Japanese: 常に九条流に対抗する家の当主として活躍したが、晩年は子の資平への家督継承と家領温存のため、道長・藤原頼通親子に口入を申し出るなど、九条流への柔軟な行動も見られる。
English: Sanesuke fell passionately in love with Princess Enshi, who was Emperor Kazan's court lady, but had no child of his own born by Enshi, and in his later years, suffering from Alzheimer's disease, he had relationships with women at random, making his political disciple, Uji Kanpaku Yorimichi (who had a very small number of wives) lament about his love affairs.
Japanese: 花山天皇の女御・婉子女王と大恋愛して結婚したが子供に恵まれず、晩年アルツハイマー型認知症が進行してからは焦りのために手当たり次第に手を出し、政治上の弟子である宇治関白頼通（彼は妻が非常に少ない）を嘆かせている。
English: He adopted Sukehira, a son of his younger brother, FUJIWARA no Kanehira, who served as Gon Chunagon, as his son, but his dearest child was his real daughter, FUJIWARA no Chifuru (Chiko).
Japanese: 弟・権中納言藤原懐平の子である資平を養子としたが、最愛の子は実女・藤原千古（ちこ、ちふる）であった。
English: While he was a devout Buddhist, he preferred to be active in the secular world until his death, refusing to become a priest even on the verge of death.
Japanese: 信仰厚い仏教であったが、今はの際まで現実社会で活躍することを好み、その死に臨んでも出家することはなかった。
English: People from all walks of life are believed to have attended his funeral held in Ononomiyadai and cried over his death out loud.
Japanese: 天寿を全うするとき、彼の小野宮第には朝野上下の人々が参集し、声を放って慟哭したという。
English: Sanesuke bequeathed the bulk of the Ononomiya family's property to his daughters, leaving only a small part to his son, Sukehira.
Japanese: 実資は小野宮家の財産を多く、息女に継承させ、一子資平には一部しか継承させなかった。
English: It is perhaps for this reason that family property estimated to have been inherited from Sanesuke was dispersed among a number of families and was dissolved into pieces during the reign of retired emperors.
Japanese: このためか、実頼から継承したと思われる家領は分散継承され、院政期には空中分解を遂げることとなる。
English: It is also believed that Sanesuke caused the economic decline of his family by not leaving property to descendants in the male line, which eventually led to the downfall of the Ononomiya family.
Japanese: また、男系子孫に財産が渡らなかったことによって同家の経済的な衰微を招き、小野宮家没落の原因を作ったと言われている。
English: Sanesuke left his diary, "Shoyuki" (Family Record of Udaijin Ononomiya), which provides indispensable material for understanding ancient court customs.
Japanese: 実資は日記史料として後年、故実に必携の書となる『小右記』（小野宮右大臣家記の略）を残す。
English: His diary covers the period from the time when he became Kurodo no to until the time when he was appointed Udaijin and Kone no Sadaisho (Major Captain of the Left Division of Inner Palace Guards), providing descriptions of an enormous number of court rituals.
Japanese: ここで実資は、現存する限り蔵人頭から右大臣近衛左大将を兼任するまで日記を残し、膨大な儀礼の記述を残した。
English: He was also well known for his personal comments on other people, and FUJIWARA no Michinaga's famous waka poem, 'Kono yo o ba… (I have always been able to control this world as I wished)' was made known to the later periods through his "Shoyuki."
Japanese: また、個人的見解を記したことでも著名で、有名な藤原道長の「この世をば…」の和歌は実資の『小右記』から現代に伝えられた。
English: MINAMOTO no Toshikata (959 - July 25, 1027) was a retainer of the Imperial Court during the mid-Heian period.
Japanese: 源俊賢（みなもとのとしかた、天徳(日本)3年（959年）-万寿4年6月13日(旧暦)（1027年7月19日））は平安中期の廷臣。
English: He was called one of the Shinagon (the four councilors) of the court of Emperor Ichijo, along with FUJIWARA no Kinto, FUJIWARA no Tadanobu, and FUJIWARA no Yukinari, and was known as a skilled administrator who supported a part of the Sekkan regent government.
Japanese: 藤原公任、同藤原斉信、同藤原行成と並んで一条朝の四納言と呼ばれ、摂関政治の一角を担う能吏として知られた。
English: He was born the third son of MINAMOTO no Takaakira, who had the title of Nishi no miya no Sadaijin (Minister of the Left for Nishinomiya), and his mother was the former wife of Takaakira and the third daughter of FUJIWARA no Morosuke, who had the title of Udaijin (Minister of the Right).
Japanese: 西宮左大臣源高明の三男として生まれ、母は高明の先妻である右大臣藤原師輔三女。
English: He had paternal siblings, including Minamoto no Akiko, who had the title of Takamatsuden and became the legal wife of FUJIWARA no Michinaga, and MINAMOTO no Tsunefusa (969-1023), who had the title of Shonii rank and Gon Chunagon (a provisional vice-councilor of state), who were borne by Ai no miya, the fifth daughter of Morosuke, who entered as the second wife for Takaakira after the death of Toshikata's mother.
Japanese: 生母の死後、高明の継室として入った師輔五女・愛宮を母とする異腹の弟妹に、藤原道長の本妻となった高松殿源明子・正二位権中納言源経房（969年-1023年）らがいる。
English: He invited the daughter (Chunagon no kimi) of FUJIWARA no Tadakimi (the son of Morosuke), who had the title of Chunagon (vice-councilor of state) and Uemon no kami (Captain of the Right Gate Guards), as his legal wife, and she served as joro (the court lady) of FUJIWARA no Teishi, who had the title of Chugu (Empress).
Japanese: 中宮藤原定子に上臈として仕えた中納言右衛門督藤原忠君（師輔男）の娘（中納言の君）を正室に迎えた。

Japanese: 後一条天皇の近臣で帝の崩後に出家した権中納言源顕基、関白藤原頼通に信任された才人・宇治大納言源隆国、子を思う家集で有名な成尋阿闍梨母らを儲けた。
English: His father, Takaakira, who was at the high rank of Sadaijin (Minister of Left), experienced a bitter moment when he was demoted to the rank of Dazai gonno sochi (Viceroy of Dazai-fu (the government of Kyushu)) due to the conspiracy of the Northern House of the FUJIWARA clan (Anna no Hen (Conspiracy of Anna)) in March 969, when Toshikata was eleven years old.
Japanese: 冷泉天皇の安和2年（969年）3月、11歳の時、左大臣の高位にあった父高明が藤原北家の陰謀によって大宰権帥に落とされる憂き目に見舞われる（安和の変）。
