Background
Kusunoki Masashige, a 14th-century samurai, is revered as the epitome of samurai loyalty. He fought for Emperor Go-Daigo during the Genkō War, an effort to usurp Japan’s sovereignty from the Kamakura shogunate. His origins are unknown, and the time between the beginning of his military expedition in 1331 and his death in 1336 was only six years. The Japanese Meiji government awarded him the highest accolade in 1880. According to legend, Emperor Go-Daigo dreamed that he was hiding behind a camphor tree (a “kusunoki” tree), and this dream led him to discover the warrior’s surname who would help him. A hero, Kusunoki Masashige “stands in the history of his country as the ideal figure of a warrior, compact of civil and military virtues in a high degree.”
