Hitomi Chikudô was a prominent [[Edo period]] [[Neo-Confucianism|Confucian]] scholar, also known for his [[Chinese poetry]] (''kanshi'').
Born and raised in [[Kyoto]] the son of an Imperial court physician, and nephew of [[Hitomi Bokuyuken|Hitomi Bokuyûken]]<!--人見卜幽軒-->, he studied under [[Hayashi Razan]] and [[Hayashi Gaho|Hayashi Gahô]], and became an official Confucian teacher for the young [[Tokugawa Ietsuna]]. He later became a Confucian scholar in service to the shogunate more centrally, and became a lay monk, accepting the rank/title of ''[[Hogan|Hôgan]]''. He inherited headship of his family in [[1674]], with lands worth 700 ''[[koku]]''.
As part of his official duties for the shogunate, Hitomi played a role in the reception of [[Korean embassies to Edo|Korean]] and [[Ryukyuan embassies to Edo]] in [[1682]], writing about both in volumes entitled ''Kanshi shukôroku''<!--韓使手口録--> and ''Jinjutsu Ryûkyû haichô ki''<!--壬戌琉球拝朝記-->. He also set his red seal to the re-issued ''[[Buke shohatto]]'' in [[1683]], and to the ''shoke shoji'' ("Various Houses, Various Temples").
His other writings included large sections of the ''Honchô tsugan''<!--本朝通鑑-->, a record of travel to [[Nikko|Nikkô]] called ''Nikkô sankei ki'', and involvement in the compilation of the ''Butoku taiseiki'' alongside [[Kinoshita Jun'an]] and others. Through his work as a clerk and secretary for the shogunate, and his resulting contact with various ''daimyô'' and ''[[hatamoto]]'' families, as well as through the [[Hayashi clan]], Hitomi became rather prominent in intellectual, literary, and political circles of his time.
