Bambayashi Mitsuhira (1813-1864) was a Japanology scholar and a proponent of the restoration of imperial authority. (The group’s slogan was “Revere the emperor; Expel foreign barbarians”.) Although Mitsuhira was sent to a Buddhist temple at a young age, he later studied Japanese classical thoughts under Kano Morohira (1806-1857) and Ban Nobutomo (1773-1846), the known Japanologists. He held a strong conviction for the restoration of the administration to the emperor, which prompted him to explore the hilly mausauleums in the Yamato region. In 1857, the nunnery of the Chuguji affiliated with the Horyuji Temple invited Mitsuhira to lecture on the ancient history of early emperors and the history of waka. When a radical group of assassins, Tenchu-Gumi, was formed in 1863 in a violent attempt to end military rule, Mitsuhira also joined the group. However, after the political upheaval on August 18, 1863, it was his group of “Expel the Barbarians” that was expelled from Kyoto. Mitsuhira was arrested and imprisoned in Rokkaku in Kyoto, where he died in disgrace at age 52. The exhibit is an excerpt from Kanke Ikai (2-volume, 33 articles, published in Muromachi Period; lit. “Morals Left by Sugawara”), a book of morals and teachings written under the pretext of imaginary oracles appearing to have been uttered by Sugawara-no-Michizane (845-903). The book admonishes bureaucrats by emulating what this deified ancient statesman and scholar would have said. For a proponent of “Japanese spirit with Chinese learning” and the raucous “revere-the-emperor-and-expel-barbarians” campaigns toward the last years of the Tokugawa military government, one can well understand Mitsuhira’s sympathy for this popular book of morals. Witness the unique brushwork.
凡歌什詠吟之弄者、鬼神交遊之梯階。夫婦偶和之基也。鬼神交遊万品生育之則。挙国純一千物繁栄焉夫婦偶和者、則民生淳質旱水各趣也。故伴黄門者、述鵲霜之情。柿三品者、賦諸山之霊、挙一之麗趣也。録菅家遺誡語伴林光平（印）
