Hosokawa Akimoto (細川 昭元, Hosokawa Akimoto, 1548 – 1592 or 1615) was a military commander and feudal lord from the Sengoku period to the Azuchi-Momoyama period. He was the guardian of Awa, Settsu, and Tanba provinces. He was Senior Fifth Rank and Ukyo-no-daibu (head of the western part of Kyoto's administration). He was the 19th head of the Hosokawa family. Born Sōmei-maru (聡明丸) to Hosokawa Harumoto and Rokkaku Sadayori, he came of age during a period of internal strife for the Hosokawa clan.
In 1575 he was appointed Ukyo-no-daibu on Oda Nobunaga's reccomendation. It is written in the Shinchō Kōki that, upon receiving this appointment, he was given a stipend along with two districts in Tanba province.[1][2]
His wife died in 1582 shortly following the Honnō-ji Incident. In the aftermath he resisted Toyotomi Hideyoshi's attacks on Shikoku, and (unsuccessfully) attempted to form an alliance between Chōsokabe Motochika and Oda Nobukatsu.[3]
Reports differ about the manner and date of his death, with the Hosokawa geneaology saying he died of illness in 1592 while the death register implies he died on 7 November 1615.
