Japanese: 一般に「試刀術」(試剣術)と呼ばれるこの刀剣性能測定法は、美意識・美的価値による芸術としての刀剣鑑定・ランク付けではなく、鎧や兜といった武具など、そして実際に人間（通常、死罪人か死体そのもの）を斬ることにより、実際の道具としての刀剣性能を品評するものである。

English: As the army of the Southern Court led by the Imperial Prince Kagenaga and Takemitsu KIKUCHI disposed of the Shoni clan and the Otomo clan and tried to go up to the east, he was appointed in 1361 by bakufu (Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun) to Kyushu Tandai (the post of the chiefs of the shogunate in Kyushu) and dispatched to Kyushu.

Japanese: また、武田氏の家紋と､彼女が皇室から使用を許された菊花紋と桐紋が彫られた愛用の鏡が円光院に所蔵されている。
English: In addition, according to "Enko-in Jiden" (history of Enko-in Temple), which is historical material kept by Enko-in Temple at that time, just before Shingen's death at Komaba in Shinano Province, he called Nobuharu BABA to his bedside and left his will to send to Sessan-osho (a priest), for dedication to Enko-in Temple, his Jinchu Mamorihonzon (guardian deity at the front), Tohachi-bishamon (a statue of Bishamoten) and Shogun-jizo (Jizo that brings victory), carved at Shingen's order by Kunaikyo hoin Yasukiyo ([宮内卿法印 定訳不明])(famous busshi (sculptor of Buddhist Statues) in the Azuchi-Momoyama period and worshipped very much).
Japanese: さらに、円光院に伝わる当時の史料・『円光院寺伝』によると、信玄が信濃国駒場で臨終間近の時、病の床に馬場信春を呼び寄せ、（安土桃山時代の高名な仏師）宮内卿法印康清に彫らせた、自分が日頃から信仰していた陣中守り本尊、刀八毘沙門・勝軍地蔵を託し、説三和尚に送り、円光院に納めてくれるように遺言したという。
English: Many believe that akagawa gusoku (armor made with red leather) dedicated to Ninomiya Miwa-jinja Shrine in Fuefuki City on January 15, 1567 (November 25, 1566 in old lunar calendar) belonged to Shingen.

Japanese: 義信の東光寺(山梨県)幽閉の時期である事などから、三条の方が義信の赤皮具足を奉納したとも考えられている。
English: Some believe that there was bad blood between Sanjo no kata and Shingen and that Sanjo no kata was a bad wife, because of the historical facts of a revolt by her son, Yoshinobu, and the inheritance of the position of family head by Katsuyori TAKEDA, who was a son of Suwa goryonin, a concubine from the Suwa family, as well as influences of works of fiction such as TV dramas and novels.
Japanese: 息子の義信の謀反、諏訪氏の出身の側室、諏訪御料人（諏訪御寮人）の子の武田勝頼が武田氏の家督を継いだ史実や、TVドラマや小説などの創作物の影響により信玄との不仲説や悪妻説などが流布。
English: She has been given the negative image of a bad wife who, in addition to being ill-favored and benighted, was proud of her noble blood and overproud and jealous.
Japanese: 不器量で暗愚な上に公家の家柄を鼻にかけ、高慢で嫉妬深い悪妻という否定的イメージを持たれていた。
English: Most such images arise from the novel "Takeda Shingen" (Shingen TAKEDA) by Jiro NITTA.
Japanese: これらのイメージはほぼ全て新田次郎原作の小説『武田信玄』によって作られたものである。
English: In the Japanese movie "Furin Kazan (movie) (1969)" (originally written by Yasushi INOUE), Yoshiko KUGA starred as Sanjo no kata.
Japanese: 邦画『風林火山(映画)（1969年）』（井上靖原作）では久我美子が演じている。
English: In the taiga drama series screened by NHK (Japan Broadcasting Corporation) in 1988, we felt that Sanjo fujin herself, performed by Misako KONNO, played the role of an enemy of a concubine (Suwa goryonin), because of her jealous love for Shingen.
Japanese: ただし、1988年に映像化された日本放送協会大河ドラマでは、紺野美沙子が演じる三条夫人自身は信玄を慕うあまりの側室（諏訪御寮人）への嫉妬心からの、敵としての役回りという感が強い。
English: As she gave birth to five children with Shingen, we cannot pronounce that Sanjo no kata's origin or personality caused a poor relation between them.
Japanese: 信玄との間に5人の子供をもうけていることから、出自や性格の理由で不仲であったとは言い切れない。
English: Recently, the view that the relation of married couple between Shingen and Sanjo no kata was not bad has been becoming more dominant.
Japanese: 最近では、彼女と信玄の夫婦仲は決して悪くはなかったとする見方が有力である。
English: This view surmises that because Suwa goryonin became the mother of Katsuyori, the last family head of the Takeda family, in order to romanticize and put emphasis on the relation between Shingen and Suwa goryonin, Sanjo fujin came to be described as a bad wife (rule of unfair diminishing).
Japanese: おそらく、諏訪御料人が武田家最後の当主勝頼の母になった事から、信玄と諏訪御料人との関係を美化し、強調するため、三条夫人が悪妻として描かれるようになったと考えられる（不当貶めの法則）。
English: In contrast to the prevailing view, in the taiga drama series of NHK for 2007 "Furin Kazan (NHK taiga drama)" (originally written by Yasushi INOUE), Sanjo no kata's image was changed to a pretty and fragile little girl, in a significant departure from the original.
Japanese: これを受けて、2007年NHK大河ドラマの『風林火山(NHK大河ドラマ)』（井上靖原作）では、原作とは違い、可憐で繊細な少女というイメージに転換。
English: Sanjo fujin, performed by Chizu IKEWAKI, was not overproud and acted as a lady who loved Harunobu and had a stalwart heart.
Japanese: 池脇千鶴が演じる三条夫人は全く高慢なところがなく、ひたすらに晴信を慕いながらも芯の強い女性を演じている。
English: There was only one scene in which she happened to see Harunobu's koiuta (love poem) to Suwa goryonin (Yuhime) and, because she had a woman's mind, said terrible things.
Japanese: 唯一、偶然に晴信からの諏訪御料人（由布姫）への恋歌を目にしてしまい、女心から嫌味を言うシーンがある。
English: Otherwise, she was consistently described as a pure-hearted young lady who made a misty gaze immediately after that.
Japanese: その直後に目に涙を浮かべるなど一貫して純情な乙女として描かれている。
English: On the other hand, as the image of Suwa goryonin was shifted 180 degrees from 'soft' to 'hard,' we can say that the producer intentionally challenged a popular historical belief that had penetrated widely.
Japanese: また一方では諏訪御料人のイメージも「軟」から「硬」へ180度転換していることから、一般的に浸透してしまった歴史通念に対する、制作側の意図的な挑戦であると言えよう。
English: Eikoin (1624 - November 20, 1711) was a woman in the Edo period who was a concubine of Iemitsu TOKUGAWA, the third seii taishogun (literally, "great general who subdues the barbarians") of the Edo bakufu (Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun).

Japanese: 徳川将軍家では三代家光以降慣例となった五摂家または宮家出身の御台所（将軍正室）で次期将軍生母となった人物は存在していない。
English: Other than that, also, ooku exerted control so that no shogun having any member of the Imperial family or noble family as a maternal relative would appear.

Japanese: 春日局の死後は家光より「春日同様」に奥向きを取り締まることを命じられ、春日局の後任として大奥の支配者となった。
English: Although it is told that, after Iemitsu died on June 8, 1651, different from other concubines, she did no tonsure and changed her name to 'Oume no tsubone' and worked again as Ojoro, little is known about her actual career after that.
Japanese: 慶安4年4月20日（1651年6月8日）に家光が死去した後は、他の側室達とは違い落飾せず、「お梅の局」と名を変え、大上臈として再び大奥勤めを始めたといわれているが、実際の彼女のそれ以後の経歴はほとんど伝わっていない。

Japanese: しかし、明暦3年1月18日（1657年3月2日）に起きた振袖火事（明暦の大火）で江戸城の本丸が焼け落ちてしまい、家光の正室の中の丸（鷹司孝子）と共に小石川の無量院に避難したとされているので、少なくともこの頃までは大奥に居たと思われる。
English: Iemitsu called her younger brother, Uemon Ujitoyo ROKUJO, and appointed him to a koke (privileged family under Tokugawa Shogunate) and ranked at Jushiinoge (Junior Fourth Rank, Lower Grade) Jiju (chamberlain) Tosa no kami (Provincial Governor of Tosa), and gave him the name of maternal family, Toda and chigyo (enfiefment) of one thousand koku.
Japanese: 家光は彼女の弟の六条右衛門氏豊を召し出し、高家に任じた他、従四位下侍従土佐守に叙し、母家である戸田の姓と千石の知行を与えた。
English: Because of the influences of TV dramas and novels, we have an image of her as a lady having both wit and beauty as well as good nature.
Japanese: 永光院はテレビドラマや小説の影響で才色兼備で性格の良い女性だというイメージがある。
English: In reality, she was the ruler of ooku in the latter half of Iemitsu's era and, reportedly, she reported to the shogun failure of officials when building a new palace in all particular and she held a sarugaku (Noh) performance in ooku over opposition of officers of the bakufu.
Japanese: 実際には家光時代後期の大奥の支配者であり、新御殿造営時の役人の不手際を将軍に逐一報告したり、幕閣の反対を押し切って大奥にて猿楽（能）を催したりしたとされる。
