ASIKAGA SEGUS. Dynasty sunset. Prasol A.F.

The Assikaga Segun dynasty met the fifteenth century at the peak of the heyday, and ended it in a deep decline. The eleven -year -old civil war, the removal of Segun from power, the immersion of the country into the destructive internecine chaos became the main events of this period. The book of the famous Russian Japaneseist, Doctor of Historical Sciences Alexander Prasol reliably talks about how this happened. In the presentation of events, the author follows the personally-chronological principle, tracing the path of gradual degradation and the death of the second military dynasty in the history of Japan. Most of the information contained in the book is published in Russian literature for the first time. The book is written by a light language, which is understandable to any reader, contains many drawings, schemes and illustrations, therefore it can be not only useful for specialists, but also fascinating for everyone who is interested in the history of Japan.
