Yoshimitsu was the son of the second shogun Ashikaga Yoshiakira.[1][2]In the year after the death of his father Yoshiakira in 1367, Yoshimitsu became Seii Taishogun at age 11.[3]"The principal beneficiary of these achievements [the solid political and economic standing of the Muromachi Bakufu] was the adult Yoshimitsu, who assumed power in his own right upon the forced resignation of Hosokawa Yoriyuki in 1379" - The Ōnin War - H. Paul Varley: Page 58. "The adult Yoshimitsu dominated Bakufu politics for nearly 30 years, from 1379 until his death in 1408." - The Ōnin War - H.

As a result, in Japanese, the Ashikaga shogunate and the corresponding time period are often referred to as the Muromachi shogunate and Muromachi period.[8]Yoshimitsu resolved the rift between the Northern and Southern Courts in 1392, when he persuaded Go-Kameyama of the Southern Court to hand over the Imperial Regalia to Emperor Go-Komatsu of the Northern Court. Yoshimitsu's greatest political achievement was that he managed to bring about the end to Nanboku-cho fighting. This event had the effect of firmly establishing the authority of the Muromachi shogunate and suppressing the power of the regional age daimyo who might challenge that central authority.[9]Although Yoshimitsu retired in 1394 and his son was confirmed as the fourth shogun Ashikaga Yoshimochi, the old shogun did not abandon any of his powers. Yoshimitsu continued to maintain authority over the shogunate until his death.[10]Yoshimitsu also played a major role in the genesis of Noh theatre, as the patron of Zeami Motokiyo, the actor considered to be Noh's founder. His close relationship with Zeami was not only based on his appreciation of Zeami's aesthetic sensibilities but also on the fact that Yoshimitu, known as an enthusiastic practitioner of Shudo, or Samurai pederasty, was infatuated with the young Zeami and took the young man as his lover.Yoshimitsu died suddenly in 1408[10] at age 50.[11] After his death, his retirement villa (near Kyoto) became Rokuon-ji, which today is famous for its three-storied, gold-leaf covered reliquary known as "Kinkaku." So famous is this single structure, in fact, that the entire temple itself is often identified as the Kinkaku-ji, the Temple of the Golden Pavilion. A statue of Yoshimitsu is found there today.[12]Eras of Yoshimitsu's bakufu[edit]The years in which Yoshimitsu was shogun are more specifically identified by more than one era name or nengō.[13] Nanboku-chō southern courtEras as reckoned by legitimate Court (as determined by Meiji rescript):Shōhei (1346–1370)Kentoku (1370–1372)Bunchū (1372–1375)Tenju (1375–1381)Kōwa (1381–1384)Genchū (1384–1393)Nanboku-chō northern courtEras as reckoned by pretender Court (as determined by Meiji rescript):Ōan (1368–1375)Eiwa (1375–1379)Kōryaku (1379–1381)Eitoku (1381–1384)Shitoku (1384–1387)Kakei (1387–1389)Kōō (1389–1390)Meitoku (1390–1393)‡Post-Nanboku-chō reunified courtEras merged as Meitoku 3 replaced Genchū 9 as Go-Kameyama abdicated.Meitoku (1393–1384)‡Ōei (1394–1428)
