History of Japan
Soshisha Publishing Library / General Tsunayoshi did not love animals - He thoroughly examined numerous laws and regulations, and it was too dark in Tsunayoshi's mind. The fifth Shogun Tsunayoshi kept issuing the Shorui Awaremi no mi no Rei for more than twenty years. He preached the love for all animals, from dogs and horses to birds, fish and shellfish to insects, and forced people to practice their principles and practices, but why did he go so far as to commit such excessive acts? There is only Tsunayoshi among the successive Shoguns who have continued to express their personal desires so openly and to force others to do so. He thoroughly examines all laws and regulations concerning Shorui Awaremi no Rei and approaches the darkness of Tsunayoshi's mind.
