Konoe Sakifusa (1536-1612) was heir to a family of imperial regents and at one time climbed to the highest administrative position of Chancellor. However, because of the unsettling times (an era of constant wars and upheavals), his fortune turned in strange ways. He once had to run away to Echigo and Settsu provinces. In 1575, receiving orders from General Oda Nobunaga, he went down to Satsuma Province (in today’s Kyushu) to advise Lord Shimazu Yoshihisa to surrender but was unsuccessful, so he returned to Kyoto after two years. In 1582, he shaved his head after Nobunaga was killed in the Revolt at Honnoji Temple and adopted the Buddhist name of Ryuzan. He was thoroughly familiar with the ways of waka composition, calligraphy, ancient practices of the court, calendar studies, and various other arts. He received oral instruction in the classics from Konoe Taneiye, which he later passed on to Shimazu Yoshihisa. He left many works, mostly waka and renga. By traveling widely, even to outlying areas, Sakifusa contributed to raising cultural standards in the countryside.
