English: The "Heiji monogatari" claims Yoshitomo had been unable to get and keep MINAMOTO no Yorimasa as an ally, but in fact Yorimasa was a retainer of Bifukumonin and had been from the start, meaning he had never truly been a follower of Yoshitomo.
Japanese: 『平治物語』は源頼政が味方につかなかったとするが、もともと頼政も美福門院の家人であり義朝に従属する立場ではなかった。
English: When Yoshitomo's army came under the joint attack of the Taira forces as well as Yorimasa's army, Toshimichi YAMANOUCHI-SUDO and Kageshige KATAGIRI, among others, fought a delaying action to the death, and taking full advantage of the time they had bought him, Yoshitomo slipped away from the battlefield.
Japanese: 義朝は平氏軍と頼政軍の攻撃を受け、山内首藤俊通・片桐景重らが必死の防戦をする間に戦場から脱出した。
English: When he was hauled before Kiyomori, Nobuyori did try to justify his actions, but given that he was the ringleader in the death of Shinzei and the assault on Sanjo Palace, and had taken up arms and fought in the battle right up until the very moment of defeat, he was judged an enemy of war and executed.

Japanese: 頼朝も2月9日平頼盛の郎等・平宗清に捕まりやはり処刑されるところを、清盛の継母・池禅尼の嘆願で助命された。
English: As a tentative explanation for why she intervened, Yoritomo had served Empress Dowager Josaimonin as a Kurodo (Chamberlain), and it is considered possible that he worked directly for Ike no zenni, who belonged a family of Atsuta Daiguji, that was a vassal of Empress Dowager Taikenmonin (the mother of both retired emperor Goshirakawa and Josaimonin, meaning her family had also served their lady's daughter, Josaimonin), while serving there.
Japanese: この背景には頼朝が上西門院の蔵人をつとめていたため、上西門院とその近臣・熱田大宮司家が待賢門院（後白河上皇・上西門院の母）近臣家出身の池禅尼に働きかけた可能性が考えられる。

English: On February 21, Goshirakawa went on an imperial visit to FUJIWARA no Akinaga's residence in the Horikawa area of Hachijo (Eighth Avenue), but as he was sightseeing from a box set up alongside the Hachijo thoroughfare, he suffered harassment in the form of some trees that were sent crashing down from outside the box to obstruct his view.

Japanese: 上皇は激怒して清盛に経宗・惟方の逮捕を命じ、2月20日清盛の郎等・源為長が二人の身柄を拘束、上皇の眼前に引き据て拷問にかけた。
English: There was an established precedent exempting members of the nobility from torture, so their fate helps to show just how deeply Goshirakawa must have hated them.
Japanese: 貴族への拷問は免除されるのが慣例であり、上皇の二人に対する憎しみの深さを現わしている。
English: The reason for Tsunemune and Korekata's downfall is thought to be the fruits of the investigation into their guilt for colluding in the death of Shinzei.
Japanese: 経宗・惟方の失脚の理由としては、信西殺害の共犯者としての責任を追及されたことによるものと見られる。

Japanese: 信西打倒に関わった者は、後白河院政派・二条親政派を問わず政界から一掃された。
English: The conflict between Retired Emperor Goshirakawa and Emperor Nijo, which had resulted in the mutual destruction of many of their most capable courtiers, now entered a lull, and indeed, the government became something of a duumvirate between the two of them (as written in the "Gukansho," 'Now the Retired Emperor and the Emperor spoke in harmony, and were of one mind'), but as for Kiyomori, who had made the single greatest contribution to the current half-victory for each of them, he continued to act prudently, not joining either faction.
Japanese: 後白河上皇と二条天皇の対立は双方の有力な廷臣が共倒れになったため小康状態となり、「院・内、申シ合ツツ同ジ御心ニテ」（『愚管抄』）とあるように二頭政治が行われたが、乱勝利の最大の貢献者である清盛はどちらの派にも組することなく慎重に行動した。
English: The Taira family took charge of several important offices, including the posts of Innocho Betto (chief administrator of the Retired Emperor's Office), Samaryo (Left Division of Bureau of Horses), and Kuraryo (Bureau of Palace Storehouses), thereby greatly increasing their political influence over the government.

English: And the power of the Taira clan was even greater still when one factors in the economic base they had to draw upon over and above the ample resources of the immediate family, the chigyo-koku (provincial fiefdom) they controlled indirectly through their retainers, including TAIRA no Iesada's appointment as governor of Chikugo Province, FUJIWARA no Yoshimori as governor of both Iki and Aki, and MINAMOTO no Tamenaga as governor of Iyo Province.
Japanese: 平氏の知行国も平家貞が筑後守、藤原能盛が壱岐守・安芸守、源為長が紀伊守となるなど、一門だけでなく郎等にも及びその経済基盤も他から抜きん出たものとなった。
English: Moreover, the ranks of the nobility involved in military affairs had been greatly thinned by the recent wars and rebellions, which allowed the Taira clan to achieve a monopoly over the vital roles of preserving the peace in Kyoto, suppressing revolts in the provinces, and protecting and managing the shoen (private estates), and they also held de facto power as the sole police authorities throughout the country.
Japanese: さらに多くの軍事貴族が戦乱で淘汰されたため、京都の治安維持・地方反乱の鎮圧・荘園の管理の役割も平氏の独占するところとなり、国家的な軍事・警察権も事実上掌握した。
English: With the weight of the Taira's great economic and military might behind him, Kiyomori firmly established the (high) position of the warrior clans at court; in 1160 he was named Sangi (councillor), marking the first time a warrior had been raised to such a high and lordly (Giseikan) rank at court.

English: Tokusei' (acts of Virtuous Government), also called 'Shinsei' (new system), are social policies that the Emperor initiated upon ascending to the throne or when the name of the era was changed because of natural disasters, etc. and were based on the theory of correlation between heaven and man and entailed activities to save the poor, "Shinryo-kogyo" (conducting ceremonies and securing property for revenue) and court case processing.
Japanese: 「徳政（とくせい）」とは天人相関思想に基づき、代替わり或いは災害などに伴い改元が行われた際に天皇が行う貧民救済活動や神領興行（儀式遂行とその財源たる所領等の保障）、訴訟処理などの社会政策のことであり、「新制」とも呼ばれる。

Japanese: こうした中で、朝廷内では現実的な政治に目を向ける事で求心力を回復させて昔の権威を取り戻そうとする動きが盛んになった。
English: The 'Tokusei' (acts of Virtuous Government) was one of the policies that was promoted as part of this movement and it is necessary to understand that 'Tokusei' is not equivalent to the 'Tokuseirei' (ordering return of land sold and dissolution of debts).
Japanese: 「徳政」はその路線の上に推進された政策であり、徳政令はそうした政策の一つである（徳政≠徳政令）という事を留意する必要がある。
English: From the stance of being critical of the Imperial Court's situation, the Kamakura bakufu requested the promotion of the 'Tokusei.'
Japanese: 鎌倉幕府も朝廷政治の現状を状況を批判的に見る立場から朝廷に対して「徳政」推進を求めた。
English: The Retired Emperor Gosaga re-established Kirokusho and in 1286, the Retired Emperor Kameyama cloistered government promoted reforms ('Koan-Tokusei,' political reforms in the Koan era) such as dividing In-hyojo into Tokusei-sata (governmental issues related to personnel and temples/shrines) and Zasso-sata (ordinary court cases related to property, money, etc.) and in 1293, Emperor Fushimi (later the Retired Emperor) enhanced Kirokusho as the organization for promoting tokusei ('Enin-Tokusei,' political reforms in the Enin era).
Japanese: 後嵯峨上皇の下で記録所が再建され、続く亀山上皇院政下の1286年（弘安9年）には、院評定を徳政沙汰（人事・寺社などの行政問題）と雑訴沙汰（所領・金銭などの一般的な訴訟）に分割するなどの改革を行い（「弘安徳政」）、1293年(正応6年・永仁元年)には伏見天皇（のち上皇）が記録所を徳政推進の機関として充実を図った（「永仁徳政」）。

Japanese: 正長の土一揆では室町幕府から正式な徳政令は出なかったものの、嘉吉の徳政一揆に際しては幕府から正式にな徳政令（嘉吉の徳政令）の発布が行われる。
English: Initially, the Muromachi bakufu was cautious about issuing Tokuseirei, but in 1454, the bakufu issued "Buichi-sen," "Buichi Tokuseirei," "Tokusei-buichi-sen," which ordered 10% of debt repayments to be paid to the government as a type of handling fee, and since this 10% of debt became income for the bakufu, it was later frequently used to unlawfully renew the bakufu finances.
Japanese: 当初は徳政令に慎重だった室町幕府は、1454年の土一揆を機に分一銭（ぶいちせん・分一徳政令（ぶいちとくせいれい）・徳政分一銭（とくせいぶいちせん）とも）を発布して、債権債務額の1割を一種の手数料として幕府に納めた紛争当事者に当該債権債務の権利を許す命令を出したが、これは債務の1割が幕府の収入となったため、後に幕府財政再建のために濫用されることとなった。
English: During the Sengoku period (period of warring states), there was a case where the lord of Sagami Province (western Kanagawa), Ujiyasu HOJO, passed the position of family head to Ujimasa HOJO and started 'Tokusei upon family head change' when there was a great famine, suggesting that 'Tokusei upon family head change' was an established practice.

Japanese: また、持明院統もまた、邦良親王の即位後に光厳天皇を皇太子にする事を条件にこの動きを支持した。

English: It is thought that the movement tried to take advantage of political unrest such as the akuto (people who rebelled against shoen owners and the government) that were active in the Kinki area, and the conflict between the Ando family and Ezo in Oshu around the middle of the 13th century.
Japanese: 13世紀中ごろから畿内などでの活動が活発であった悪党や、奥州での安東氏と蝦夷の対立など、政情不安に乗じてのものだとも考えられている。

Japanese: 俊基らは赦免されたが資朝は鎌倉へ連行され佐渡島へ流刑となり、側近の万里小路宣房らが鎌倉へ赴いて釈明を行い、後醍醐天皇は幕府に釈明して赦されるが、7年後の1331年（元弘元年）に2度目の討幕計画である元弘の乱を起こす。
English: The first scroll of the classic, "Taiheiki" (Records of Great Peace), includes an account of the Shochu no Hen (Shochu Incident), depicting it as an overthrow plan disguised as "bureikou" (do as you please), and a story about Yorikazu TOKI, who was participating in the plan, leaking the rebellion plan to his wife who then betrayed them to the Rokuhara Tandai.
Japanese: 古典『太平記』で巻一に正中の変の顛末が記されており、無礼講と称して討幕計画や、計画に参加していた土岐頼員が妻に謀反の計画を漏らし、六波羅探題に事情を密告する話などが記されている。

Japanese: 相前後して、高松院（しゅ子内親王）・六条天皇・九条院（藤原呈子）が亡くなり、政界はにわかに動揺する。
English: There were signs of confrontation between Emperor Takakura, who had started to take part in political matters after reaching adulthood, and Goshirakawa, who wanted to continue his cloistered governance, but upon the position assignment on January 13, 1177, FUJIWARA no Nobuyoshi and FUJIWARA no Mitsuyoshi, who were close aides of Goshirakawa, were promoted to Kurodo no to (Head Chamberlain), passing over TAIRA no Tomomori and others.
Japanese: 成人して政務に関与するようになった高倉天皇と、院政継続を望む後白河の間には対立の兆しがあったが、12月5日の除目において後白河近臣の藤原定能・藤原光能が、平知盛らを超えて蔵人頭に任じられた。

Japanese: ところが、後白河が帰京した3月22日、山門（比叡山延暦寺）の大衆(仏教)が加賀国守・藤原師高の配流を求めて強訴を起こした（白山事件）。
English: The cause was that monks at Hakusan appealed to the Sanmon because Morotaka, Saiko's child, became governor of Kaga Province and the Mokudai (substitute for the governor who lives in the province and performs actual duties) Morotsune burned down Ukawa-ji Temple, a branch temple of Hakusan,
Japanese: 発端は西光の子・師高が加賀守となり、目代・師経が白山の末寺・宇河寺を焼いたことに激怒した白山の僧侶が山門に訴えたことだった。
English: It was common for the Mokudai of the governor's office and temples/shrines at the province to fight over various aspects regarding shoen (private estates) owned by temples, but this incident sent ripples into the central government and caused a full confrontation between the Sanmon and the cloistered government group because Hakusan was a branch temple of the Sanmon and the governor was a child of Saiko, a close aide of the cloistered government.
Japanese: 国衙の目代と現地の寺社が、寺領荘園の所務を巡り紛争を起こすことは各地で頻発していたが、この事件では白山が山門の末寺で、国司が院近臣・西光の子であることから、中央に波及して山門と院勢力の全面衝突に発展した。
English: Goshirakawa tried to settle the situation by exiling the Mokudai, Morotsune, to Bingo Province (present eastern half of Hiroshima prefecture), but the monks were not satisfied and brought out a mikoshi (portable shrine) and headed towards the inner Imperial Court on May 18.
Japanese: 後白河は目代・師経を備後国に流罪にすることで事態を収拾しようとしたが、大衆は納得せず4月12日に神輿を持ち出して内裏に向かう。

English: In this situation, Goshirakawa suddenly brought up the former incident and dismissed Myoun of Tendai-zasu (head priest of the Tendai sect), took away his property, and exiled him to Izu Province on June 27.
Japanese: このような中で、後白河は突如として先の事件を蒸し返し、天台座主・明雲を解任、所領を没官すると5月22日に伊豆国へ配流した。
English: It is said that this was caused by Saiko, who saddened by the exile of Morotaka, blamed Myoun as the leader of the demonstrations and demanded punishment.
Japanese: 西光が師高の流罪を嘆き、強訴の張本人が明雲であるとして処罰を訴えたことが原因であったという。

Japanese: 清盛は攻撃に消極的だったが後白河に押し切られる形となり、近江国・美濃国・越前国の武士も動員されて攻撃開始は目前に迫った。
