Bushi to Ha Nanika Chusei No Oken Wo (Kadokawa Sofuia Bunko SP I - 112 - 1)

[Machine Translation] The Middle Ages was the "Age of the Samurai"! What were the struggles of the samurai for supremacy, and what was the reality of the Shogun's power as a samurai government? From the Genpei War through the Warring States Period to the completion of the Tokugawa Shogunate. This book traces the process by which the samurai became "kings as rulers from warriors" from such stimulating perspectives as the penetration of a monetary economy, the activities of the seafaring people, the impact of monotheism, and the clash between East and West. This is a new history of the medieval period in Japan that eliminates preconceptions and conventional textbook historical perspectives, and vividly deciphers the transition of power from the "realities" of the period.
