Fujiwara no Tadataka (藤原 隆忠, 1163 - 1245), first son of regentMatsudono Motofusa, was aKugyō (high-ranking Japanese official) of the lateHeian andKamakura periods.
Despite being first-born, he was treated as if he were not, while his stepbrotherMoroie inherited the male-line. Hence, he called himselfDaikakuji Sadaijin (大覚寺左大臣), avoiding the use of the name Matsudono. In 1220, just before theJōkyū War, he retired from politics, becoming a Buddhist monk.
In recent years scholars have suspected that he is actually the author ofRokudai Shōjiki (六代勝事記).[1]
