in 1935 , tatsukichi minobe emphasized the theory of the emperor as an organ of government , which was the mainstream in the learned society , and was denounced in the house of peers , his books became prohibited , he was prosecuted for lese majesty , and he resigned from the members of the house of peers . 昭和10年（1935年）、美濃部達吉はそれまで学会で主流だった天皇機関説を主張したことで貴族院で排撃され、著書は発禁処分となり不敬罪で告訴され、貴族院議員の職を辞した。
however in the latter half of the eighteenth century , a theory called taisei inin ron , that says people must obey the shogun since the power of seii taishogun is entrusted by the emperor , was proposed in the learned society , and the nature of the authorities of both shogun and the emperor had begun to be reconsidered . しかし18世紀後半から、征夷大将軍の権力は天皇から委任されたものであるから、将軍に従わなければならないとする大政委任論が学界で提唱されるようになり、将軍の権威付けとともに天皇の権威性も見直されていくようになっていった。
especially with the emperors of kesshi-hachidai (eight undocumented sovereigns ), a negative theory stating that the history of the imperial family was padded out following the revolutionary idea (shinisetsu , or theory of predicting future with magic ) in ancient china is the main stream in learned society after the war (there are also theories that support the existence ). 特に欠史八代の天皇については、古代中国の革命思想（讖緯説）に則って天皇家の歴史を水増したのではないかと指摘する否定説が戦後学会では主流である（実在説もある）。
particularly in recent times , origuchi explained that makurakotoba had derived from the proverb , had common characteristics with the words of norito (shinto prayer ), were special words which had magically signified power , had become a mere shell or dead letter in the later generations , and had changed into something like rhetorical games , and this explanation has been widely supported by the learned society . とくに近代になって、折口が諺を由来に持ち、祝詞の言葉などと共通性を持つ、呪力を持った特別な言葉(らいふ・いんできす)であり、それが後世になって形骸化していき、だんだんと言語遊戯的なものとなっていったと説明しており、学会では広く支持されている（）。
