English: Bicchu no kami SUGI resigned himself to the reality that this day would be his last battle, and threw all his strength into an assault on the camp of Mitsuuji YAMANA, achieving a spectacular death in battle.
Japanese: 杉備中守は今日が最後の戦いになると覚悟し、山名満氏の陣に突撃して見事な討死を遂げた。
English: Yoshihiro, after seeing this, resolved that he would continue in the tradition of general Xiang Hu's glorious death, and make such an end for himself as would ensure his fame for posterity.
Japanese: これを見ていた義弘は項羽の討死の故事を引き、自分も後代に残るような最後を遂げると決意する。
English: Kanrei Motokuni HATAKEYAMA's legitimate son and heir Mitsuie took his force of 200 men and challenged Yoshihiro's advance, but Yoshihiro proved a worthy opponent indeed, fighting back ferociously even though he had a mere 30 men.
Japanese: 管領畠山基国の嫡子畠山満家の軍勢200騎がこれに挑むが、義弘はよき敵であると僅か30騎でさんざんに戦った。
English: Yoshihiro continued fighting, attempting to strike down Mitsuie, but the shogunal army surrounded him and launched an unrelenting assault.
Japanese: 義弘はなおも満家を討ち取ろうと戦い続け、幕府軍はこれを取り囲んで攻め立てた。
English: Alone now, Yoshihiro continued to fight on, trying to kill Mitsuie, but he was surrounded and in the end used up all his strength, letting out a great shout, saying 'Yoshihiro OUCHI, great military commander without peer, now enters the next life.
Japanese: 一人になった義弘は満家を目がけて戦い続けるが、取り囲まれ遂に力尽きて「天下無双の名将大内義弘入道である。
English: When Bungo no kami SUGI, who was reinforcing the south side of the city, was told of Yoshihiro's death, he cut his way into the enemy's formation and died in battle.
Japanese: 南側を固めていた杉豊後守は義弘の死を知らされて敵陣に切り込んで討死。
English: Hiroshige, who was reinforcing the east side of the city and fighting against the armies of the Imagawa and Isshiki clans, also found his own soldiers' numbers dwindling, and deciding that he had fought as long as he could, he tried to kill himself.
Japanese: 東側を固めていた弘茂は今川勢、一色勢を相手に戦っていたが、手勢も討ち減らされ、最早これまでと自害しようとした。
English: Mitsukane ASHIKAGA, the kubo of the Kanto, had taken his army and marched from Fuchu in Musashi Province as far as the Ashikaga family's private estates in Shimotsuke Province (modern-day Ashikaga City in Tochigi Pref.), but when news of Yoshihiro's defeat and death reached him, he turned back to Kamakura.
Japanese: 関東公方足利満兼は武蔵国府中から上野国足利荘(栃木県足利市)まで進軍するが、義弘敗死の報を聞いて鎌倉へ引き返した。
English: In April, 1400, the Kanto kubo Mitsukane ASHIKAGA presented a prayer-petition to the Grand Shrine at Mishima in Izu Province in which he apologized for double-crossing the shogunate 'in my narrow-mindedness.'
Japanese: 応永7年（1400年）3月、関東公方足利満兼は伊豆国三嶋大社に願文を奉献し、「小量をもって」幕府に二心を起こしたことを謝罪した。
English: Ryoshun IMAGAWA, the one who had urged Mitsukane to revolt against the shogunate, was made the target of a search and destroy order from the shogunate, and because of this proceeded to the capital and apologized, for which he was granted clemency.
Japanese: 足利満兼を謀叛に誘った今川了俊は幕府から討伐の命を受けたために上洛して謝罪し、助命された。
English: Hiroshige, together with shogunal reinforcements, attacked and drove Morimi away, but in 1401 Morimi raised a new army in Kyushu and made another attempt to win back the Ouchi lands, and after several battles between them, Morimi destroyed Hiroshige at Sakariyama Castle (in modern-day Chufu ward of the city of Shimonoseki).
Japanese: 弘茂は幕府の援軍とともに盛見を攻めてこれを追うが、応永8年（1401年）に九州で盛見は再挙し、数度の合戦の後、弘茂は佐加利山城（下関市長府）で滅ぼされた。
English: The shogunate, no longer able to avoid acknowledging Morimi's overlordship of these lands, officially granted him the title of shugo over Suo and Nagato Provinces in 1405, and when they added the provinces of Buzen and Chikuzen to his dominion as shugo, he finally swore allegiance to the Shogun again.
Japanese: 幕府もこれを認めざるえなくなり応永12年（1405年）頃に盛見に周防・長門の守護職を与え、更に豊前・筑前の守護まで加えてようやく帰順させた。
English: In this way, the Ouchi clan was able to recover their military strength and rally after being brought once to the brink of ruin.
Japanese: こうして、いったんは没落しかけた大内氏は再び勢力を盛り返すことになった。
English: "Ryoto tetsuritsu" refers to the situation where the family line of a country's monarchy is split into two and the monarch is alternately selected from these two family lines.
Japanese: 両統迭立（りょうとうてつりつ）とは、一国の君主の家系が2つに分裂し、それぞれの家系から交互に国王を即位させている状態をいう。
English: The Imperial family (at that time called 'Oke') during the Kamakura period was split into two family lines and was best known to be in the state of Ryoto tetsuritsu regarding the succession of Chiten (retired emperor who runs the cloistered government) and Emperor.
Japanese: 日本では、鎌倉時代に天皇家（当時の呼称では「王家」）が2つの家系に分裂し、治天と天皇の継承が両統迭立の状態にあったことが最も著名である。
English: The Ryoto tetsuritsu in this period was between the Jimyoin line, descendants of Emperor Gosaga's third son, Emperor Gofukakusa, and the Daikakuji line, descendants of fourth son Emperor Kameyama.
Japanese: この時代の両統迭立は、後嵯峨天皇の第3皇子後深草天皇の子孫である持明院統と、第4皇子亀山天皇の子孫である大覚寺統とのあいだで行われた。
English: In 1242, Gosaga became Emperor, abdicated the throne to Crown Prince Hisahito (Gofukakusa, aged 4) and started a cloister government in 1246, and then in 1258, without waiting for Gofukakusa to have a prince, installed Gofukakusa (aged 16)'s younger half brother, Tsunehito (Kameyama, aged 10), as Crown Prince and in 1259, he made Gofukakusa abdicate so Tsunehito could become Emperor.
Japanese: 仁治3年（1242年）に即位した後嵯峨は、寛元4年（1246年）に皇太子久仁（後深草、4歳）に譲位して院政を開始したあと、後深草に皇子が生まれるのを待たず、正嘉2年（1258年）に後深草（16歳）の同母弟恒仁（亀山、10歳）を皇太子とし、さらに翌正元(日本)元年（1259年）には後深草から恒仁に譲位させた。
English: Gofukakusa later had sons, and in 1268, Gosaga installed Kameyama's heir (second prince) Yohito (aged 2) as Crown Prince instead of Gofukakusa's heir (second son) Hirohito (aged 4).
Japanese: 後深草にはその後皇子が生まれたが、文永5年（1268年）、後嵯峨は、後深草の嫡男（第2皇子）煕仁（4歳）をさしおいて亀山の嫡男（第2皇子）世仁（2歳）を皇太子とした。
English: From this string of actions, it is easy to presume that Gosaga wanted Kameyama and his descendants as his successors, but Gosaga died in 1272 without clarifying his wishes (aged 53).
Japanese: この一連の措置から、後嵯峨が亀山を自らの後継者としその子孫に皇統を伝える意図を持っていたことは容易に推測できるが、後嵯峨はその意図を明確にせずに文永9年（1272年）に死去した（53歳）。
English: His will only specified the division of property without naming a successor, only indicating his wish that the naming the next Chiten should follow the wishes of the Kamakura bakufu (Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun).
Japanese: 遺言状も財産の分与をこまごまと定めるのみで後継者を指名する文言はなく、ただ次代の治天の指名は鎌倉幕府の意向に従うようにという遺志だけが示された。
English: Since both Gofukakusa and Kameyama wanted to be the next Chiten and a fight broke out, the bakufu was asked to make a ruling.
Japanese: 後深草と亀山はそれぞれ次代の治天となることを望んで争い、裁定は幕府に持ち込まれた。
English: The bakufu asked Omiyain, who was the first wife and biological mother of Gofukakusa and Kameyama, which of the sons was the deceased choice and Omiyain gave Kameyama's name, who was subsequently named as Chiten.
Japanese: 幕府は、後嵯峨の正妻であり後深草と亀山の生母でもある大宮院に故人の真意がどちらにあったかを照会し、大宮院が亀山の名を挙げたことから亀山を治天に指名した。
English: The reason why Gosaga took such an unclear stance was based on his own experience as being unexpectedly selected from a collateral family line to ascend to Emperor due to the bakufu's intervention, and knew well that if he named a successor that was not to the bakufu's liking, it would easily have been changed by the bakufu.
Japanese: 後嵯峨がこのような曖昧な態度をとったのは、自身が幕府の介入によって傍系から予想外の即位をした経験を踏まえ、後継者を指名しても幕府の意にかなわなければ簡単に覆されてしまうことをよく知っていたためである。
English: Kameyama attended to government affairs for a short period as Emperor and then abdicated the throne in 1274 to Crown Prince Yohito (aged 8, Emperor Gouda).
Japanese: 亀山はしばらく在位のまま政務を執り、文永11年（1274年）には皇太子世仁（8歳、後宇多天皇）に譲位した。
English: On the other hand, Gofukakusa, who lost the position of Chiten, even though he was the older brother, became frustrated and when Gouda became Emperor, he declined the position of Daijo Tenno (the retired emperor) and tried to become a priest as a sign of protest.
Japanese: 一方、兄でありながら治天の地位を逃した後深草は不満を募らせ、後宇多が即位すると抗議のため太上天皇の待遇を辞退して出家しようとした。
English: Amongst the extensive Imperial private estates, Gosaga had planned so that Gofukakusa could inherit the large Chokodo group of private estates consisting of over 100 estates around the country, but Gofukakusa was not satisfied.
Japanese: 後嵯峨は、膨大な王家領荘園群のうち、全国100ヶ所以上の荘園から構成される大荘園群長講堂領を後深草が相続できるようとりはからっていたが、それだけでは後深草の不満は収まらなかったのである。
English: Kameyama also inherited the large Hachijoin private estate group consisting of over 200 estates and this became the main financial foundation for the Daikakuji line.
Japanese: 亀山も対抗措置としてやはり200ヶ所にのぼる大荘園群八条院領をのちに手に入れ、こちらは大覚寺統の主要な財政基盤となった。
English: The two Imperial lines fought fiercely over not only the positions of Chiten, Emperor, and Crown Prince, but also the Imperial private estates separately managed by nyoin (title given to some high-ranking female Imperial family member who have been Empress, etc.) and other Imperial family members, leading to a division within the Imperial family, both financially as well as politically.
Japanese: 2つの皇統は、こののち、治天・天皇・皇太子の地位だけでなく、女院などの皇族たちが分散して管理する王家領荘園群の熾烈な争奪戦も演じることになり、王家は政治的にだけではなく経済的にも分裂状況に陥ることになる。
English: Due to Gofukakusa's dissatisfaction, the bakufu intervened and in 1275, named Hirohito (aged 11) as Crown Prince and guaranteed Gofukakusa would be Chiten in the future.
Japanese: 後深草の不満を受けて幕府が介入し、建治元年（1275年）に煕仁（11歳）を皇太子に指名、将来、後深草が治天となることを保証した。
English: Other than the explanation for this intervention that has been given since it happened that the Regent Tokimune HOJO sympathized with Gofukakusa's situation ("Masukagami" (The Clear Mirror)), it has been pointed out that the Kanto Moshitsugi, Sanekane SAIONJI, who was in the position to mediate between Tokimune and the Chiten, was more intimate with the Gofukakusa father and son than the Kameyama father and son and could have worked for a more advantageous solution for Gofukakusa.
Japanese: この介入は、執権北条時宗が後深草の立場に同情したためという説明が当時からなされている（『増鏡』）ほか、得宗と治天の交渉を仲介する立場にある関東申次西園寺実兼が亀山父子よりも後深草父子と親しかったため、後深草にとって有利な解決をはかったことも指摘されている。
English: At this point, the regent family had already split within the bakufu, and it is said that there were intentions to split the Imperial family in the same way (Kazuto HONGO), but there are no historical documents to prove this and the truth is unknown.
Japanese: この時点ですでに幕府は摂関家が分裂したのと同様に王家をも分裂させる意図を持っていたとも言われる（本郷和人）が、史料がなく真相は不明である。
English: It is also necessary to note that in the Kamakura period, the Imperial court society in general had a tendency to produce branch families.
Japanese: 鎌倉時代には、公家社会一般で分家を次々に創出させる傾向が見られたことにも留意する必要がある。
English: In any case, due to the intervention of the bakufu in 1275, it was determined that both Gofukakusa and Kameyama had equal right to have their descendants as Emperor and both had eligibility to become Chiten themselves, and this was the beginning of the division of the Imperial family which lasted for two hundred years.
Japanese: いずれにしても、建治元年の幕府の介入によって、後深草と亀山の両人が等しく皇位を子孫に伝え自らは治天となる資格を有することが確定し、これが以後200年に及ぶ王家分裂の端緒となった。
English: Kameyama worked extensively to arrange a court management system within the Imperial court, and established "Koanreisetsu" (Koan Shosatsurei) to maintain class order within the Imperial Court society.
Japanese: 亀山は、朝廷の訴訟処理機構の整備を進め、また公家社会の身分秩序を律する「弘安礼節（弘安書札礼）」を制定するなど、意欲的に政務に取り組んだ。
English: At the same time, the bakufu had political reforms led by Yasumori ADACHI, it is thought that there was a close relationship between virtuous governments in both Imperial and Military courts due to the fact that there were cultural exchanges at the individual level between Kameyama and Yasumori.
Japanese: 同じころ幕府でも安達泰盛が主導する徳政が行われており、亀山と泰盛とのあいだには文化交流など個人的なつながりもあることから、公武両徳政には密接な連関があるものと考えられている。
English: However, in 1285, Yasumori and his group members were killed and exiled in a coup d'etat by TAIRA no Yoritsuna (Shimotsuki Incident) leading to a change in direction of bakufu measures that affected the Imperial Court, stunning the Kameyama Cloistered Government.
Japanese: しかし、弘安8年（1285年）に泰盛とその与党が平頼綱らのクーデタ（霜月騒動）により殺害・追放されて幕府の政策が転換すると、その影響が朝廷にも及び、亀山院政は動揺した。
English: Around this time, Gofukakusa schemed, lodging a complaint to the bakufu that Gosaga did not name Kameyama as his heir.
Japanese: このころ後深草も後嵯峨は亀山を後継者に指名してはいない旨を幕府に申し入れるなどの工作を行っている。
English: In the midst of political unrest, when Kameyama was rumored to be thinking of overthrowing the Shogunate, the bakufu ordered a change in Chiten and Emperor in 1287, with the Crown Prince Hirohito (aged 23, Emperor Fushimi) ascending the throne and Gofukakusa starting a cloistered government.
Japanese: 亀山が倒幕を考えている、という噂が立つなどの政情不安のなか、結局、弘安10年（1287年）になって幕府は治天・天皇の交替を要求し、皇太子煕仁（23歳、伏見天皇）が践祚して後深草による院政が開始された。
English: In 1289, also by designation of the bakufu, Fushimi's first son, Tanehito (aged 2) was installed as Crown Prince and during the same year, Gofukakusa's son Imperial Prince Hisaaki was greeted as the head of the Kamakura Shogunate.
Japanese: 正応2年（1289年）にはこれも幕府の指名により伏見の第1皇子胤仁（2歳）が皇太子に立てられ、さらに同年後深草の皇子久明親王が鎌倉殿として幕府に迎えられた。
English: After witnessing this, Gofukakusa retired and became a priest in 1290 (aged 48), also yielding the job of Chiten to Fushimi.
Japanese: 後深草はこれを見届けると正応3年（1290年）に出家（48歳）し、治天の政務も伏見に譲って引退した。
English: At this point, Ryoto tetsuritsu had not yet completely embedded itself, and the aristocracy did not yet create factions so the aristocrats who served the Daikakuji line Chiten worked for the subsequent Jimyoin line Chiten, leading to the sudden decline of the Daikakuji line.
Japanese: この時点では、まだ両統迭立が完全には定着しておらず、貴族たちもいずれか一方の皇統にのみ仕えて派閥を形成するということはなかったため、それまで大覚寺統の治天に仕えていた貴族たちはそのまま持明院統の治天に仕えることになり、大覚寺統は一気に勢力を失った。
English: Kameyama was disappointed and became a priest in 1289 (aged 41), and was accused of being involved in an incident where bushi Tameyori ASAHARA and others who lost their territory during the Shimotsuki Incident, invaded the Imperial Palace and tried to assassinate Fushimi, and had to submit an appeal to the bakufu to clear his name in 1290.
Japanese: 亀山は失意のうちに正応2年に出家（41歳）し、翌正応3年に霜月騒動で所領を失った武士浅原為頼らが内裏に乱入し伏見を殺害しようとする事件が起きると関与を疑われ、起請文を幕府に提出して身の潔白を主張しなければならなかった。
English: When Fushimi became Chiten, he worked diligently for advancement and continued to expand the court management system and actively recruited without bias towards family lineage.
Japanese: 治天となった伏見は、亀山の時代に整備された訴訟処理機構をさらに拡充し、家柄にとらわれない人材登用を積極的にめざすなど、政務の振興に努力した。
English: Tamekane was trusted by Fushimi and was the leader of the leading tanka (short poem) circle other than the Nijo school, and was also heavily involved in government affairs.
Japanese: 為兼は伏見の信任を背景に二条派と並ぶ歌壇の一方の指導者となっただけでなく、政務にも深く関与した。
English: However, Tamekane's individualistic character made many enemies and together with Fushimi's progressive governing stance, it led to confrontation with Sanekane SAIONJI and called attention from the bakufu.
Japanese: ただ、為兼の強烈な個性は多くの敵をつくり、伏見の積極的な政治姿勢とも相まって、西園寺実兼との対立や幕府の警戒を呼ぶ結果となった。
English: In 1298, Fushimi abdicated in favor of the Crown Prince Tanehito (aged 10, Emperor Gofushimi), but a comeback by the Daikakuji line that Sanekane also participated in was staged regarding the nomination of the next Crown Prince.
Japanese: 伏見は永仁6年（1298年）に皇太子胤仁（10歳、後伏見天皇）に譲位したが、次の皇太子の人選をめぐって大覚寺統の巻き返しが起こり、実兼もこれに加担した。
English: Fushimi continued to attend to government affairs, but the government did not stabilize and the bakufu ordered a change in Chiten and Emperor in 1301, with the Crown Prince Kuniharu (aged 17, Emperor Gonijo) ascending the throne and Gouda starting a cloistered government.
Japanese: 伏見は引き続き政務を執ったが政権は安定せず、正安3年（1301年）、幕府は治天・天皇の交替を要求し、皇太子邦治（17歳、後二条天皇）が践祚して後宇多による院政が開始された。
English: This change is the first time when Ryoto tetsuritsu was announced as being the official policy of the Kamakura Shogunate (when its supreme leader was Tokuso Sadatoki HOJO).
Japanese: 両統迭立が鎌倉幕府（最高権力者は得宗北条貞時）の公式な方針として表明されたのは、この交替のときが最初である。
English: There are two opposing theories, one that this was done to establish a division in the Imperial family, and the other is that it was done to avoid direct intervention and leave the Imperial succession to the autonomy of the Imperial family.
Japanese: 王家の分裂を固定化する意図によるものとする説と、皇位継承を王家の自律に任せ直接的な関与を避ける意図によるものとする説とが対立している。
English: As Ryoto tetsuritsu became established, aristocrats that served only one of the Imperial lines started to appear, and the Chiten side also asked that of its aristocrats.
Japanese: 両統迭立の定着にともない、一方の皇統に専属的に仕える貴族が出現しはじめ、また治天の側も貴族たちにそれを求めた。
English: While the division of the Imperial family led to the division of Imperial Court society in general, the subordination of the aristocrats to the Chiten side also progressed.
Japanese: 王家の分裂が公家社会全体の分裂へと発展してゆくことになった一方、貴族たちの治天への従属は深まった。
English: Since the high officials and important positions were all changed when the heads were changed, confusion such as the judgment of a court cases during a Chiten in one line being easily upturned by the other line's Chiten occurred and this led to a decline in the Imperial Court's authority.
Japanese: また、政務の交替とともに朝廷の高官・要職が一斉に入れ換えられ、一方の皇統の治天が下した訴訟の判決が他方の皇統の治天によって安易に覆されるなどの混乱も生じ、朝廷の権威の低下を招いた。
English: The 13 year old Gofushimi had no princes and therefore Fushimi's fourth son, Tomihito (aged 5) became Crown Prince.
Japanese: 13歳の後伏見にはまだ皇子がなく、伏見の第4皇子富仁（5歳）が皇太子となった。
English: The possibility of further division threatened and Fushimi took measures to make Tomihito as Gofushimi's adopted heir.
Japanese: 2つに分裂した王家がさらに分裂する可能性が生じ、伏見は持明院統の分裂を防止するため富仁を後伏見の猶子とする措置をとっている。
English: Although the Daikakuji line already had its future heir apparent for the throne because Gonijo's first son, Imperial Prince Kuniyoshi was born in 1300, Kameyama was partial to his son Imperial Prince Tsuneaki who was born in 1303, and had made Gouda and Fushimi promise to place Tsuneaki instead of Kuniyoshi on the throne, which led to further seeds of Imperial lineage division.
Japanese: 大覚寺統では、すでに後二条には正安2年（1300年）に第1皇子邦良親王が生まれて将来の皇位継承が予定されていたにもかかわらず、亀山が乾元(日本)2年（1303年）に生まれた自分の皇子恒明親王を偏愛するあまり、邦良に代えて恒明を皇位につけることを後宇多と伏見に約束させて、さらなる皇統分裂の種を蒔いた。
English: In 1304, Gofukakusa died at 62, and in 1305, Kameyama died at 57, and Ryoto tetsuritsu entered its second generation.
Japanese: 嘉元2年（1304年）に後深草が62歳で死去、翌嘉元3年（1305年）には亀山が57歳で死去し、両統迭立は第2世代の時代に入った。
English: Gouda also attended to government affairs diligently to strengthen the claims of his Imperial line.
Japanese: 後宇多もやはり政務に精励することで自己の皇統の正統性を補強しようと努力している。
English: He was also a devout follower of Shingon Esoteric Buddhism and became a monk in 1307 (aged 41).
Japanese: また、真言密教に傾倒して、徳治2年（1307年）には出家している（41歳）。
English: This was not only meant as a personal religion, but intended to strengthen the legitimacy of the royal line by religious authority.
Japanese: これも個人的な信仰だけでなく、宗教的権威により皇統の正統性を強化する意図を含むものである。
English: However, in 1308, Gonijo (aged 24) died suddenly and the Crown Prince Tomihito (aged 12, Emperor Hanazono) ascended the throne and Fushimi started a cloistered government.
Japanese: しかし、徳治3年（1308年）に後二条（24歳）が急死して皇太子富仁（12歳、花園天皇）が践祚し、伏見による院政が再開された。
English: The Crown Prince was to come from the Daikakuji line, but Gouda chose not his direct grandson Kuniyoshi (aged 9), but his second Prince Takaharu (aged 21).
Japanese: 大覚寺統から皇太子が選ばれることになったが、後宇多は、皇太子として嫡孫邦良（9歳）ではなく第2皇子尊治（21歳）を選んだ。
English: This choice took into account the youth and poor health of Kuniyoshi and was a measure to suppress the force that was demanding Tsuneaki as Crown Prince, but in conclusion this only led to make the problem even more complex.
Japanese: 邦良の幼少と病弱を考慮し、また恒明を皇太子とすることを要求する勢力を抑えるための措置だったが、結局これも問題をさらに複雑なものにした。
English: In 1313, Fushimi became a priest and yielded the government affairs as Chiten to Gofushimi.
Japanese: なお、伏見も正和2年（1313年）に出家し、治天の政務を後伏見に譲っている。
English: As Ryoto tetsuritsu became established and both lines were able to govern as long as they could wait, the next thing that happened was that they tried to move that event forward.
Japanese: 両統迭立の定着により、両統とも時期を待てばいずれ政務を執ることができるようになると、今度は両統ともその時期をなるべく早めようとする。
English: This was specifically accomplished by sending special envoys to the Kamakura Shogunate to appeal for the abdication of the current Emperor.
Japanese: それは、具体的にはもっぱら鎌倉幕府へ特使を派遣して現在の天皇を譲位させるように請願するかたちで行われた。
English: Especially around this time, Fushimi was held in suspicion from the bakufu continuing on from his first cloistered government, and there were even rumors that he was thinking of going against the bakufu and he submitted a official document appealing to the bakufu about his innocence in 1316.
Japanese: 特にこのころ、伏見は第1次の院政期から引き続いて幕府から警戒されており、かつての亀山のように倒幕を考えているという噂も立つほどで、正和5年（1316年）には、伏見は幕府に告文を提出して潔白を訴えている。
English: The bakufu struggled to handle the issue and in 1317, it indicated that the next succession was to be decided by discussion between the two lines and prohibited the sending of special envoys.
Japanese: 対応に苦しんだ幕府は、文保元年（1317年）、次回の皇位継承については両統の協議により決定し、特使の派遣はやめるように指示した。
English: At the discussion, Gouda demanded that Hanazono abdicate in favor of the Crown Prince Takaharu, and place Kuniyoshi as the next Crown Prince.
Japanese: 協議の場で後宇多は花園が皇太子尊治に譲位すること、次の皇太子には邦良を立てることを求めた。
English: Fushimi accepted the abdication of Hanazono, but wanted Gofushimi's first son Kazuhito (aged 5) as the next Crown Prince.
Japanese: 伏見は花園の譲位は受け入れたが、皇太子には後伏見の第1皇子量仁（5歳）を立てることを求めた。
English: The discussions broke up, but the power balance between the two lines changed when Fushimi died at 53 in the same year.
Japanese: 協議はいったん決裂したが、同年伏見が53歳で死去すると両統の力関係が変わる。
English: Gouda demanded Hanazono's abdication again, and Gofushimi could not go against this, so in 1318, the Takaharu (aged 31, Emperor Godaigo) ascended the throne and Kuniyoshi (aged 19) became the Crown Prince.
Japanese: 後宇多は再び花園の譲位を要求し、後伏見はこれを拒むことができず、翌文保2年（1318年）には尊治（31歳、後醍醐天皇）が践祚し、邦良（19歳）が皇太子となった。
English: As an exchange condition, Gouda promised Gofushimi that Kazuhito would become the next Crown Prince after Kuniyoshi.
Japanese: 交換条件として、後宇多は邦良の次の皇太子には量仁を立てることを後伏見に約束している。
English: With Godaigo's accession, Gouda's cloistered government was reinstated, but Gouda himself became further devout in esoteric Buddhism and became the chief priest himself by establishing Daikakuji Temple Monseki and he started to let the reins go with government affairs as his health declined along the years, relinquishing the duties as Chiten to Godaigo in 1321 and he died at the age of 58 in 1324.
Japanese: 後醍醐の践祚とともに後宇多の院政が再開されたが、後宇多は大覚寺門跡を創設して自ら門主となるなど密教への傾倒をさらに深め、また年齢とともに体調を崩してしだいに政務に倦み、元亨元年（1321年）には治天の政務を後醍醐に譲り、元亨4年（1324年）には58歳で死去した。
English: Gouda considered Kuniyoshi as his genuine successor and the accession of Godaigo was only an "interim" measure until Kuniyoshi came to age.
Japanese: 後宇多は、あくまでも邦良を自分の正統な後継者と考えており、後醍醐の即位は邦良が成人するまでの“中継ぎ”でしかなかった。
English: In the property allocation list for the Daikakuji line written by Gouda, he wrote that Godaigo's descendants had no right to succession and Godaigo should consider Kuniyoshi as his own son and this was also known to those concerned.
Japanese: 後宇多が記した大覚寺統の所領処分目録には、後醍醐の子孫は皇位継承権を持たないこと、後醍醐は邦良を自分の実子と思って待遇することなどが記され、そのことは関係者にも周知された。
