Biography
Chuko Shinsho / Up until Emperor Meiji, many concubines were allowed in the Imperial Family, but now it has changed greatly to a modern family with monogamy and raising children at home. It is said that this is due to Crown Prince Akihito and Princess Michiko who made a family out of love after World War II. However, even before that time, many members of the Imperial Family, including three generations of Empresses, aimed to become a modern family and fell in love with the times. This book describes the history of the Imperial Family spanning the 150 years from the Meiji period to the Emperor Emeritus and his wife and Her Imperial Highness Princess Mako of Akishino, through a number of romantic relationships.
