English: The fact that the black-inked impressions (used in official documents) of the seals used by generations of the head of the Takagi clan included the name 'Taneyoshi' has supported the historical fact that it was he who built the foundation for the Takagi clan to grow.
Japanese: 高城氏歴代当主の印が「胤吉」の名義が入った黒印であった事からも、胤吉が高城氏発展の基礎を築いたという事実が裏付けられる。

English: There was no direct relationship between Yoshiyasu and the Ichijo family that later rose as a line of regents and advisors (Sanetsune ICHIJO, who was the originator of the regent and advisor Ichijo family, was in the female line and was Yoshiyasu's great-great-grandson).
Japanese: 後の摂関家の一条家とは直接の関係はない（摂関家の一条家の祖である一条実経は女系で能保の親族呼称にあたる）。

English: His paternal grandmother was Ichijo, who was a nanny of Imperial Princess Muneko, an older sister of Emperor Goshirakawa who was born to the same mother; therefore, Yoshiyasu was close to Cloistered Emperor Goshirakawa and Josaimonin.
Japanese: 父方の祖母は後白河天皇の同母姉統子内親王乳母一条で能保は後白河法皇ー上西門院に近い立場にあった。
English: Also, his mother was from the Tokudaiji family which was in the line of the Kanin ryu that had power in the Imperial Court at that time.

Japanese: その後は母方の縁に連なる徳大寺家出身の太皇太后藤原多子に太皇太后権亮として仕え、その一方で父方の祖母が仕えている上西門院からも位階をさずかり、この時期徳大寺家、上西門院に近い存在であったが太皇太后職以外の官職には恵まれていなかった。

Japanese: 治承寿永の乱の初期の間の能保の動向は明らかではないが、都が木曽義仲の勢力下にあった1183年頃、その圧迫を逃れて東国に下ったとの記載が「愚管抄」にあり、また1184年には平頼盛などとともに鎌倉に滞在していることが「吾妻鏡」に記載されている。
English: When the Taira clan was destroyed and Yoritomo assumed power, Yoritomo fully trusted Yoshiyasu because of the family relationship.
Japanese: 平氏が滅び、頼朝が新たな権力者となると、この縁が極めて有効となり、頼朝からも全幅の信頼を寄せられるようになる。
English: To Yoritomo, the wife of Yoshiyasu was the only sibling still living and born to the same mother (MINAMOTO no Mareyoshi, Yoritomo's younger brother born to the same mother, died young in a war, and MINAMOTO no Yoshitsune was his younger brother but born to a different mother).
Japanese: 頼朝にとっては、存命の同母の兄弟姉妹は能保の妻だけだったのである（同母弟の源希義は早い段階で戦死、源義経などは異母弟に過ぎない）。
English: As a result, through the influence of Yoritomo, Yoshiyasu was promoted unusually fast from the Director of Sanuki Province to Samanokami (Military Administrator), Uhyoenokami (Captain of the Right Division of Middle Palace Guards), Sangi (Councilor), Sahyoenokami (Captain of the Left Division of Middle Palace Guards), Kebiishi no Betto, (the Superintendent of the Imperial Police), Gonchunagon (Provisional Middle Councilor), and Junii (Junior Second Rank).

Japanese: また、頼朝の父の菩提寺勝長寿院の造営に関しては頼朝とともに造営の下見をしたり、同寺院の落成式には頼朝の姉妹である妻とともに参列している。
English: When he went back to the capital, he somehow came to play a role in the local agency for the bakufu (Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun) and Kyoto, and he led a search for Yoshitsune and his family members who had conflicts with Yoritomo.
Japanese: またその後都に戻ると幕府の京都の出先機関のような存在になり、頼朝と対立した義経やその係累の捜索の指揮をとったりしている。

Japanese: 能保自身は後白河天皇（法皇）に仕えて重用され、妻や娘は後鳥羽天皇の乳母となった。
English: He was appointed to the Director of Kyoto by Yoritomo who fully trusted him, and also built a large network within the Imperial Court and the bakufu, coming to hold political power by marrying his daughters off to Yoshitsune KUJO (the son of Kanezane KUJO) and Kintsune SAIONJI, and also by becoming an in-law of Kanemasa KAZANIN and Michichika TSUCHIMIKADO.
Japanese: さらに頼朝から京都守護に任命されるなど、頼朝からの信任は厚く、九条良経（九条兼実の子）や西園寺公経を娘と娶わせ、花山院兼雅や土御門通親とも姻戚関係を結ぶなど、朝廷や幕府に広いネットワークを形成し、有力な実力者にのし上がった。

Japanese: 藤原師実（ふじわらのもろざね、長久3年（1042年）-康和3年2月13日(旧暦)（1101年3月14日））は院政期の公卿で藤氏長者。
English: Baby boys born to Gishi were all adopted by other families out of consideration to Yorimichi's legal wife, MINAMOTO no Takahime and the legitimate son FUJIWARA no Michifusa (the biological mother however was not MINAMOTO no Takahime); however, Michifusa, the older brother of Morozane born to a different mother, suddenly died after the birth of Morozane, and Morozane therefore was appointed to be the successor of the family headship.
Japanese: 祇子所生の男子は頼通の正室源隆姫と嫡男藤原通房（ただし、生母は別の女性である）への配慮から全員他家への養子に出されていたが、師実の誕生から程なく異母兄・通房が急死ししたため、師実が後継者に立てられた。
English: After the death of his uncle, FUJIWARA no Norimichi, Morozane and his cousin, FUJIWARA no Nobunaga, fought over the regent post, but because Morozane cooperated with the Emperor who loved Kenshi very much and who was hoping to let his direct family line take over the throne instead of his younger brothers (Imperial Prince Sanehito and Imperial Prince Sukehito) who were not of Fujiwara origin, Morozane successfully took over the family headship from Nobunaga who served as the regent, the head of the Fujiwara clan, and Dajodaijin (Grand Minister).
Japanese: 叔父藤原教通の死後は従兄の藤原信長と摂関の地位をめぐって対立するが、賢子を寵愛し、藤原氏の血を引かない弟達（実仁親王、輔仁親王）ではなく、自らの直系への皇位継承を望んでいた天皇と協調し、摂関・藤氏長者、さらに太政大臣となった信長を差し置いての一座獲得に成功した。
English: Although it was in a period of decline, the regent-and-advisor political administration still had some power during the time of Morozane.
Japanese: このように師実の時代は衰退したとはいえ、摂関政治はまだある程度の効力は持っていた。
English: However, the regent-and-advisor political administration finally collapsed for a number of reasons: Kenshi being married off to the Emperor meant strengthening the power of the Murakami-Genji (a branch of the Minamoto clan); Morozane's son, FUJIWARA no Moromichi, and Morozane himself died one after the other which led to fights over the family succession; and Morozane's official grandson, Emperor Horikawa, died young.
Japanese: しかし、賢子入内は村上源氏の勢力伸張をも意味し、また息子の藤原師通と彼のあいついでの薨去とその後継争い、さらに形式上の孫である堀河天皇の早世により崩壊する事となってしまった。

Japanese: 玉藻前（たまものまえ。玉藻の前・玉藻御前と紹介されることもある）は平安時代末期、鳥羽天皇に仕えた白面金毛九尾の狐が化けた架空の絶世の美女。
English: Tamamo no Mae supposedly played an important role during the cloistered rule of the Retired Emperor Toba, which was from 1129 to 1156, and she was supposed to be a young woman of about 20 years old (or some say a young girl) with extensive knowledge and great beauty, and she was said to be the most beautiful and smartest woman in the country.
Japanese: 鳥羽上皇が院政を行った1129年から1156年の間に活躍したといわれ、20歳前後の若い女性（少女とも）でありながら、大変な博識と美貌の持ち主であり、天下一の美女とも、国一番の賢女とも謳われた。
English: She is also known as Kesho no mae and some believe that her real identity was a fox with two tails instead of a white-faced, golden-haired, and nine-tailed fox.
Japanese: また、化生の前（けしょうのまえ）とも云われ、その正体は白面金毛九尾の狐ではなく、2つの尻尾を持った狐であったとも云われている。
English: She was first called Mizukume and raised with much love by a husband and wife who could not have children of their own, and Mizukume grew to be a beautiful girl.
Japanese: 最初は藻女（みずくめ）と言われ、子に恵まれない夫婦の手で大切に育てられ、美しく成長した。
English: She started to work at the Imperial Palace at the age of 18 and became a court lady who served the Retired Emperor Toba, and as he came to love her very much, they exchanged marriage vows.
Japanese: 18歳で宮中で仕え、のちに鳥羽上皇に仕える女官となったが、次第に鳥羽上皇に寵愛され、契りを結ぶこととなった。
English: After exchanging marriage vows, however, the Retired Emperor Toba gradually became ill.
Japanese: しかし玉藻前と契りを結んだ後、鳥羽上皇は次第に病に伏せるようになった。
English: The Imperial Family's doctor could not find the cause of his illness, but the sorcerer ABE no Yasunari (or ABE no Yasuchika or ABE no Seimei) found that Tamamo no Mae was causing his illness, and Tamamo no Mae, having her real self as a nine-tailed fox revealed by the sorcerer, ran from the Imperial Court in the form of the white-faced, golden-haired, and nine-tailed fox, and hid herself.
Japanese: 天皇家お抱えの医者が診断しても、その原因が何なのかが分からなかったが、陰陽師・安倍泰成（安倍泰親、安倍晴明とも）によって病の原因が玉藻前であることが分かり、その正体が九尾の狐であることを暴露された玉藻前は、白面金毛九尾の狐の姿で宮中を脱走し、行方を暗ましていた。
English: Later, there was a report to the Imperial Court that the fox had been kidnapping women and girls in the Nasuno district (currently the Nasu district in Tochigi Prefecture), and this led the Retired Emperor Toba to organize a force to subdue the nine-tailed fox, responding to the request of SUDO gon no kami Sadanobu, who was the lord of the Nasuno district, to kill the nine-tailed fox.
Japanese: その後、那須野（現在の栃木県那須郡周辺）で婦女子をさらうなどの行為が宮中へ伝わり、鳥羽上皇はかねてから九尾の狐退治を要請していた那須野領主須藤権守貞信の要請に応え、九尾の狐討伐軍を編成。
English: The Retired Emperor Toba then appointed two bushi (warriors), Yoshiaki MIURA and Hirotsune KAZUSA, to shogun (generals), and also appointed the sorcerer ABE no Yasunari to the strategist, and dispatched a force with over 80,000 soldiers to the Nasuno district.
Japanese: 三浦義明と上総広常という武士を将軍に、陰陽師・安部泰成を軍師に任命し、8万余りの軍勢を那須野へと派遣した。
English: Finding Tamamo no Mae in the shape of the white-faced, golden-haired, and nine-tailed fox in the Nasuno district, the force immediately attacked her, but mysterious spells cast by the nine-tailed fox killed many soldiers; therefore, the initial attack failed.
Japanese: 那須野にて既に白面金毛九尾の狐と化した玉藻前を発見した討伐軍はすぐさま攻撃を仕掛けたが、九尾の狐の怪しげな術などによって多くの戦力を失い、最初の攻撃は失敗に終わった。
English: In order to successfully hunt the nine-tailed fox, Miuranosuke and Kazusanosuke (warriors) as well as many officers and soldiers trained their horseback shooting skill by chasing and hunting dogs imagining their tails were the fox and then started the attack again.
Japanese: 三浦介と上総介ら多くの将兵は九尾の狐を確実に狩るために犬の尾を狐に見立てた犬追物で騎射を訓練し、再び攻撃を開始する。
English: Because it was the second attack, the force had carefully planned the hunt and they slowly drove the nine-tailed fox into a corner.
Japanese: 2度目とあって九尾の狐対策を十分に練ったため、討伐軍は次第に九尾の狐を追い込んでいった。
English: In a last-ditch attempt, the nine-tailed fox appeared in Sadanobu's dream as a young woman and asked forgiveness, but Sadanobu thought it was a sign that the nine-tailed fox had grown weak and thus initiated the final attack.
Japanese: 最後の抵抗として九尾の狐は貞信の夢の中に現れ若い女性に化けて許しを願ったが、貞信はこれを九尾の狐が弱まっていると読み、最後の攻勢に出た。
English: Then, two arrows shot by Miuranosuke penetrated the belly and neck of the nine-tailed fox, and Kazusanosuke then attacked it with his long sword, and finally, the fox was killed.
Japanese: そして三浦介が放った二つの矢が九尾の狐の脇腹と首筋を貫き、上総介の長刀が斬りつけたことで、九尾の狐は息絶えた。
English: Immediately after the death, the nine-tailed fox transformed herself into a huge poisonous rock to kill humans and animals that came nearby.
Japanese: だが九尾の狐はその直後、巨大な毒石に変化し、近づく人間や動物等の命を奪った。
English: It is said that even high priests who came to Sesshoseki to offer prayers of repose for the fox were killed one-by-one from the poison of the rock.
Japanese: 鎮魂のためにやって来た多くの高僧ですら、殺生石の毒気で次々と倒されていったと言われている。
English: It is said that in the Muromachi period, Genno osho who opened Gengen-ji Temple in the Aizu district destroyed Sesshoseki, and pieces of the destroyed Sesshoseki flew to various parts of Japan.
Japanese: 室町時代、会津・元現寺を開いた玄翁和尚が、殺生石を破壊し、破壊された殺生石は各地へと飛散したと伝われている。
English: Tamamo no Mae is said to be modeled after Empress Bifukumonin (FUJIWARA no Nariko) that the Retired Emperor Toba loved very much, and her story is considered to be based on the historical fact that: although Empress Bifukumonin was not from a noble family such as a regent-and-advisor family, she used her political power to plan to have her children or nephews ascend to the crown; this caused conflict with the Retired Emperor Sutoku, FUJIWARA no Tadazane, and FUJIWARA no Yorinaga; she initiated the Hogen Disturbance; and finally she established the foundation for political administration by warriors (note, however, there have been multiple theories regarding the level of Empress Bikufumonin's involvement in Imperial succession).
Japanese: 玉藻前のモデルは、鳥羽上皇に寵愛された皇后美福門院（藤原得子）であり、摂関家などの名門出身でもない彼女が権勢をふるって自分の子や猶子を帝位につけるよう画策して、崇徳上皇や藤原忠実・藤原頼長親子と対立して、保元の乱を引き起こし、更には武家政権樹立のきっかけを作った史実が下敷きになっているとも言われる（ただし、美福門院がどのくらい皇位継承に関与していたかについては諸説ある）。
English: In the Edo period, Tamamo no Mae was included as one of the three worst Japanese monsters along with Shutendoji (boy-faced giant) and the retired Emperor Sutoku (long-nosed goblin king of Sutoku), and she was featured in many kabuki performances, novels, comics, magazines, and paperbacks usually as an evil character.
Japanese: 江戸時代に入ると、玉藻前は酒呑童子、崇徳上皇（崇徳の大天狗）と並んで日本三大悪妖怪と言われ、歌舞伎や多くの小説・漫画・雑誌・文庫などに、主に悪役として多く登場することとなった。
English: By being associated with the Chinese evil women, Dakki and Hoji, the monster Tamamo no Mae became a white-faced, gold-haired, and nine-tailed fox whose story originated in India and was transmitted to China and finally to Japan; therefore, the impression was established that she was an evil monster known around the world.
Japanese: そして中国の悪女、妲己と褒ジを結びつけることで、妖怪玉藻前は三国伝来白面金毛九尾の狐として昇華され、世界的な大妖怪というイメージが定着した。
English: Therefore, for accurate interpretation, Tamamo no Mae should be considered as separate from the white-faced, gold-haired, and nine-tailed fox whose story originated in India and was transmitted to China and finally to Japan.
Japanese: よって、玉藻前と三国伝来白面金毛九尾は別の存在としたほうが正確である。
English: Note, however, some see Tamamo no Mae, or the nine-tailed fox, as a heroine of a tragedy who was afraid of being alone, addicted to love, and a puppet of fate, instead of an evil character who tried to destroy the nation or dynasty.
Japanese: しかしごく一部ではあるが、玉藻前、九尾の狐を単なる国家や王朝を破壊しようとした悪役ではなく、孤独を恐れ、愛情に溺れ、運命に弄ばれた悲劇のヒロインとする見方もある。
English: MINAMOTO no Yorinaka (? - August 24, 1156) was a military commander of the Kawachi-Genji branch of the Minamoto clan who lived at the end of the Heian period.
Japanese: 源頼仲（みなもとのよりなか、生年未詳-保元元年7月30日(旧暦)（1156年8月17日））は平安時代末期の河内源氏の武将。
