AbstractJanet R. Goodwin considers the role of contributions to temples in medieval Japan. She examines documents pertaining to a kanjin (public subscription) campaign conducted by Kasagidera, a temple in Yamashiro Province and, because of the evidence they contain, raises questions about the role of established schools in the popularization of Japanese Buddhism. She finds that, although the change in character of medieval Buddhism is generally attributed to the rise of new pietistic movements, the established schools sought broad-based support among the populace by their subscription campaigns, in an effort to revitalize themselves both economically and spiritually.
