Go-Kashiwabara

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Emperor Go-Kashiwabara ( Japanese. 後 柏 原 天皇 , Go-Kashiwabara-tennō ; * November 19, 1464 ; † May 19, 1526 ) was the 104th Tennō of Japan (November 16, 1500-19 May 1526).

His proper name was Katsuhito ( 勝 仁 ). He was the first son of Emperor Go-Tsuchimikado . He made his second son Tomohito his crown prince, who called himself Emperor Go-Nara .

Due to the effects of the Ōnin War during the Sengoku period , the imperial family was so poor that the official coronation ceremony could not be carried out for financial reasons. On March 22, 1521, 21 years after taking office, he was formally crowned after donations from the Hongan Temple ( 本 願 寺 ) and the Muromachi Shogunate . Daijo-e or Oharae , he could not hold the religious coronation ceremony.

His reign falls into the Sengoku period , the time of the warring states. Neither the Tennō nor the Muromachi shogunate had any real power. Japan was fragmented into countless territories, the rulers of which waged wars against one another in frequently changing alliances.
