Product description ※Please note that product information is not in full comprehensive meaning because of the machine translation.

Biography Ashikaga Yoshimasa (1436 - 1490) : The 8th Shogun of the Muromachi Shogunate.
While the Higashiyama culture is highly valued, the Ashikaga Yoshimasa has a strong image of being incompetent from a political point of view.
This book objectively tracks his life from a political point of view, which has been neglected so far.
From a political point of view, we look at what Yoshimasa aimed at as a statesman, who was constantly troubled by growing social unrest and discord within the family.
