EspañolHōREKI
(Redirected from Horeki)
'''Hōreki''' () was a Japanese era name (年号, ''nengō'', lit. year name) after ''Kan'en'' and before ''Meiwa.'' The period spanned the years from 1751 through 1764. The reigning emperor and emperess were Momozono''-tennō'' (桃園天皇) and Go-Sakuramachi''-tennō'' (後桜町天皇).
★ '''Hōreki 1''' (宝暦元年; October 27, 1751): The new era of ''Hōreki'' (meaning "Valuable Calendar" or "Valuable Almanac") was said to have been created to mark the death of the retired Emperor Sakuramachi and the death of the former Shogun Tokugawa Yoshimune.
::The previous era could be said to have ended and the new era is understood to have commenced in ''Kan'en'' 4, on the 27th day of the 10th month; however, this nengō was promulgated retroactively. The ''Keikō Kimon'' records that the calendar was amended by Imperial command, and the era was re-named Hōreki on December 2, 1754, which then would have become 19th day of the 10th month of the 4th year of Hōreki.[1]
