Ashikaga Yoshimochi

Ashikaga Yoshimochi

was the 4th shogun of the Ashikaga shogunate who reigned from 1394 to 1423 during the Muromachi period of Japan. Yoshimochi was the son of the third shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu.Titsingh, Isaac. (1834). [http://books.google.com/books?id=18oNAAAAIAAJ&pg=PP9&dq=nipon+o+dai+itsi+ran#PRA1-PA321,M1 "Annales des empereurs du japon," p. 321.] ]

In 1394, Yoshimitsu gave up his title in favor of his young son, and Yoshimochi was formally confirmed in his office as "Seii Taishogun." [see above] ] Despite any appearance of retirement, the old shogun didn't abandon any of his powers, and Yoshimitsu continued to maintain authority over the shogunate until his death . Yoshimochi exercised unfettered power as shogun only after his father died in 1408. [Titsingh, [http://books.google.com/books?id=18oNAAAAIAAJ&pg=PP9&dq=nipon+o+dai+itsi+ran#PRA1-PA325,M1 p. 325.] ]

Significant events shape the period during which Yoshimochi was shogun:
* 1408 -- Yoshimochi comes into his own as a shogun.Ackroyd, Joyce. (1982) "Lessons from History: The "Tokushi Yoron," p. 330.]
* 1409 -- Ashikaga Mochiuji becomes Kantō Kubō. [see above] ]
* 1411 -- Yoshimochi breaks off relations with China.Sansom, George. (1961). [http://books.google.com/books?id=0syC6L77dpAC&pg=PA142&dq=ashikaga+yoshimochi&lr=&sig=u78OtPMl3rwNDkUdMKUQ8CATFYo "A History of Japan, 1334-1615," p. 142.] ]
* 1413 -- Emperor Go-Komatsu abdicates; Emperor Shōkō ascends throne in repudiation of agreement; renewed hostility between shogunate and supporters of Southern Court. [see above] ]
* 1415 -- Dissension between Mochiuji, the Kantō Kubō at Kamakura, and Uesugi Zenshū (Kanryō). [see above] ]
* 1416 -- Uesugi rebells. [see above] ]
* 1417 -- Uesugi's rebellion quelled by Mochiuji. [see above] ]
* 1419 -- Korean attack on Tsushima (Ōei Invasion). [see above] ]
* 1420 -- Serious famine with great loss of life. [see above] ]
* 1422 -- Resuragence of southern supporters. [see above] ]
* 1423 -- Yoshimochi cedes authority to his son. [see above] ]

Yoshimochi followed his father's example by formally ceding his powers to a young son, the fifth shogun Ashikaga Yoshikazu, who was age 18. [Titsingh, [http://books.google.com/books?id=18oNAAAAIAAJ&pg=PP9&dq=nipon+o+dai+itsi+ran#PRA1-PA329,M1 p. 329.] ]

Era of Yoshimochi's "bakufu"

The years in which Yoshimochi was shogan are more specifically identified by more than one era name or "nengō". [Titsingh, [http://books.google.com/books?id=18oNAAAAIAAJ&pg=PP9&dq=nipon+o+dai+itsi+ran#PRA1-PA321,M1 pp. 321] -329.]
* "Ōei" (1394-1428)
