藤原 為家
Tameie was the second son of poets Teika and Abutsuni. And he was the central figure in a circle of Japanese poets after the Jōkyū War in 1221.
They each established rival families of poets—the Nijō, the Koyōgoku and the Reizei. Starting in 1250, Tameie was among those who held the ritsuryō office of chief administrator of the Ministry of Taxation (民部卿, Minbu-kyō).
