Emperor Junna (淳和天皇, Junna-tennō, c. 785 – 11 June 840) was the 53rd emperor of Japan,[1] according to the traditional order of succession.[2] Junna reigned from 823 to 833.[3]
Junna had six Empresses and Imperial consorts and 13 Imperial sons and daughters.[4] His personal name (imina) was Ōtomo ().[5]
Junna is traditionally venerated at his tomb; the Imperial Household Agency designates Ōharano no Nishi no Minenoe no Misasagi (大原野西嶺上陵, Ōharano no Nishi no Minenoe Imperial Mausoleum), in Nishikyō-ku, Kyoto, as the location of Junna's mausoleum.[1]
The years of Junna's reign are more specifically identified by more than one era name (nengō).[13]
Kugyō (公卿) is a collective term for the very few most powerful men attached to the court of the Emperor of Japan in pre-Meiji eras.[14]
In general, this elite group included only three to four men at a time. These were hereditary courtiers whose experience and background would have brought them to the pinnacle of a life's career. During Junna's reign, this apex of the Daijō-kan included:
Empress: Imperial Princess Shōshi/Masako (正子内親王) (810–879), daughter of Emperor Saga
Hi(Empress as posthumous honors): Imperial Princess Koshi (高志内親王) (789–809), daughter of Emperor Kammu
Nyogō: Nagahara no Motohime (永原原姫)
Nyogō: Tachibana no Ujiko (橘氏子), daughter of Tachibana no Nagana
Koui: Fujiwara no Kiyoko (藤原潔子), daughter of Fujiwara no Nagaoka
Court lady: Princess Otsugu (緒継女王) (787–847)
Court lady: Ōnakatomi no Yasuko (大中臣安子), daughter of Ōnakatomi no Fuchiio
