Kujō Masamoto

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kujō Masamoto (九条 政基, 1445–1516), son of regent Mitsuie, was a kugyō or Japanese court noble of the Muromachi period (1336–1573). He held a regent position kampaku from 1476 to 1479. Kujō Hisatsune was his son.

Masamoto-kō Tabihikitsuke

[edit]

In 1501, Kujō Masamoto left Kyoto for an extended stay at the family's Hine Estate to manage the shōen directly in a time when courtier control of estates was increasingly disrupted by the military conflicts and social transformations of the Sengoku period. Masamoto kept a diary, Tabihikitsuke (published as Masamoto-kō Tabihikitsuke 政基公旅引付), which offers a view of estate management and rural life and livelihoods.[1]
