  • History You can't Edit

    Users Assigned: Shimizu77  
    Historically the Ashikaga family shoguns settled down in Kyoto’s Muromachi district, which gave its name to the new creative period that followed.

    The gruff, bluff warriors, taste for art – calligraphy, landscape painting, the, tea ceremony, music, dance, and theater- coincided with a renewed interest in thing Chinese, above all the teachings of Zen Buddhism.

    Although Zen had been present in Japan since the 12th century, its ascendancy began under the Kamakura regime, which found the mystic Chinese philosophy admirably suited to Japanese sensitivity, impressionism, and love of form and ritual.

    The Ashikaga shoguns and their samurai were greatly attracted by an essentially anti-intellectual doctrine that transmitted its truth from master to disciple by practical example rather that scholarly study of texts. Enlightenment (satori) was to be achieved through self-understanding and self-discipline, combining tranquillity and individualism.

    After their savage battles, the warriors recuperated through meditation in the peace of a Zen monastery rock garden.
