Japanese History
The Muromachi period, which was a byword for a quiet period in Japanese history, is now attracting attention. However, in general, the Muromachi Shogunate has a strong impression of the war between the Northern and Southern Courts until the end of Japan's reign, and of the Warring States Period after the Onin War, but has a weak impression of the middle of the Muromachi period. However, the Muromachi Shogunate is at its peak, and it is essential to understand this period in order to understand the Muromachi Period. In this book, we focus on the era of the four shoguns (the third Yoshimitsu, the fourth Yoshimochi, the sixth Yoshinori, and the eighth Yoshimasa) who reigned during this period of stability. They are positioned as the "Muromachi-dono," a leader who transcends the Shogun, and who can govern not only samurai families but also court nobles as guardians of the of the Emperor, and who can govern not only samurai families but also court nobles. From the existence of Muromachi-dono, they examine the nature of the Muromachi Shogunate and its relationship with various institutions, and "what is the Muromachi Shogunate," including differences between the Kamakura and Edo shogunate, is clarified by introducing the latest research through 15 essays by up-and-coming researchers.
