Hosokawa Fujitaka

Hosokawa Fujitaka

nihongo|Hosokawa Fujitaka|細川藤孝| (June 3, 1534-October 6, 1610) was a Japanese daimyo of the Sengoku period. Also known as nihongo|Hosokawa Yūsai|細川幽斎. Fujitaka was a prominent retainer of the last Ashikaga shoguns. His son, Hosokawa Tadaoki, went on to become one of the Oda clan's senior generals.

After the Incident at Honnō-ji (1582), Fujitaka took the Buddhist tonsure and changed his name to the priestly "Yūsai." However, he remained an active force in politics, under both Toyotomi Hideyoshi and later, Tokugawa Ieyasu. Hideyoshi granted Fujitaka a retirement estate worth 3,000 koku in Yamashiro Province.

Fujitaka was buried in Kyoto, but has a second grave in Kumamoto, which his grandson Tadatoshi ruled.
