AB - The process of the birth and development of Hiragaka, Katakana, and Manyogana (Magana, pseudonym) has never been fully clarified. For example, it is known that kunten-materials, senmyo, materials written in Japanese-Chinese mixed sentences, and kokirok were written in the mixed notation of hiragana, katakana and manyogana, rather than in a single notation of either katakana or hiragana. However, it has not yet been clarified why such a thing happened.
It has been pointed out in previous study that there is a common background between the mixed use of hiragana, katakana, and manyogana in kokiroku-materials and the mixing of hiragana in the katakana notation in kunten-materials of Chinesebooks in the Heian period. However, the inclusion of kana in the kokiroku-materials has various origins such as following the missionary writings, accurate recording of waka poems and conversational sentences, and the use of kana in places where kanji cannot be written. In this regard, the situation of the kokiroku-materials differs from that of kunten-materials of Chinesebooks. Nevertheless, both are common in that they were read and written in the case that had a strong affinity with the Japanese context, such as colloquialism, waka poems, political rituals and daily life. It is thus natural to assume that hiragana was used for both.
Looking at "Midokanpakuki", "Suisaki", "Gonijyo-moromichiki" and "Gumaiki", the kokiroku-materials of the Heian period, of which the autographs remain for today, the difference in the use of kana that reflects the above origins is found at an early stage. However, the differences in origin were mixed, and at the same time, the notation mixed with kana was used in descriptive parts. Then, kokiroku-materials written exclusively in katakana such as "Suisaki" was created, and at the same time, the mixture of hiragana, katakakan and manyogana remained even after the Middle Ages in the kokiroku-materials and materials written in Japanese-Chinese mixed sentences.
