AbstractKuroda Toshio’s revisionist history of medieval Japan is well known, but the
historiography behind the revisions is not fully understood. This article first
places Kuroda among other post-war Japanese intellectuals and then examines
the particular significance of his work. Kuroda’s contribution is not limited to
medieval history, but has much broader implications for comparative studies
in areas such as the relationship between religion and politics or religion and
the modernization process. Because Kuroda viewed the Pure Land Buddhist
Sect, Jōdo Shinshū, as the most progressive and politically independent sect in
the medieval period, Shinshū plays a particularly important role in Kuroda’s
history of Japanese Buddhism.
