Who was Fujiwara no Tameie?
Fujiwara no Tameie was a Japanese poet and compiler of Imperial anthologies of poems.
Tameie was the second son of poets Teika and Abutsuni; and he was the central figure in a circle of Japanese poets after the Jōkyū War in 1221. His three sons were Nijō Tameuji, Kyōgoku Tamenori and Reizei Tamesuke. They each established rival families of poets—the Nijō, the Koyōgoku and the Reizei.
Starting in 1250, Tameie was among those who held the ritsuryō office of chief administrator of the Ministry of Taxation. In 1256, he abandoned public life to become a Buddhist monk, taking the name Minbukyō-nyūdō.
