In this episode of The Story of Japan, we look at the strange and fascinating reign of Tokugawa Tsunayoshi, the fifth shogun of the Tokugawa dynasty. Known as the Dog Shogun, Tsunayoshi issued the Laws of Compassion which made killing stray dogs a capital offense, and his Edo castle housed tens of thousands of feral canines at public expense. But beyond the animal obsession, we explore his patronage of Confucian scholarship, his brutal suppression of vendettas like the Akō incident, and his role in sparking the Genroku cultural flowering—a golden age of kabuki, ukiyo-e, and merchant prosperity. We also examine the fiscal chaos left by his extravagance, and how his rigid moralism clashed with the realities of samurai governance. This is a portrait of a ruler often caricatured as mad, but whose policies shaped Japan's early modern state. #TokugawaTsunayoshi #DogShogun #EdoPeriod #Genroku #LawsOfCompassion #AkōIncident #47Ronin #Chushingura #Shogun #Bakufu #EdoCastle #Confucianism #Kabuki #UkiyoE #MatsudairaSadamasa #Japan #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
