2. Azuma KagamiThe Azuma Kagami, or "mirror of the east", is a Japanese medieval text that chronicles events of the Kamakura Shogunate from Minamoto no Yoritomo's rebellion against the Taira clan in Izokuni of 1180 to Munetaka Shinnō (the 6th shogun) and his return to Kyoto in 1266. The work is also called Hōjōbon after the Late Hōjō family of Odawara, in whose possession it used to be before it was donated to Tokugawa Ieyasu.
