Homonyms

Eishō may refer to:

Eishō (Heian period) (永承), Japanese era from 1046 to 1053
Eishō (Muromachi period) (永正), Japanese era from 1504 to 1521

This set of nengō used to be identified as

Eishō (first) (永承), Japanese era from 1046 to 1053
Eishō (永正), Japanese era from 1504 to 1521

It was suggested that the period designations were clearer; and the same pattern seemed useful in the cases of other homonym pairs in the list of Japanese era names:

   * 976_ 貞元 |Jōgen (976 - 978)
   * 1046 永承 |Eishō (1046 - 1053) ---> [Eishō (Heian period)]
   * 1099 康和 |Kōwa (1099 - 1104)
   * 1131 天承 |Tenshō (1131 - 1132)
   * 1142 康治 |Kōji (1142 - 1144)
   * 1207 承元 |Jōgen (1207 - 1211) 
   * 1222 貞応 |Jōō (1222 - 1224)
   * 1278 弘安 |Kōan (1278 - 1288)
   * 1312 正和 |Shōwa (1312 - 1317)
   * 1361 康安 |Kōan (1361 - 1362)
   * 1381 弘和 |Kōwa (1381 - 1383)  
   * 1504 永正 |Eishō (1504 - 1521) --> [Eishō (Muromachi period)]
   * 1555 弘治 |Kōji (1555 - 1558)
   * 1573 天正 |Tenshō (1573 - 1592)
   * 1652 承応 |Jōō (1652 - 1655)
   * 1926 昭和 |Shōwa (1926 - 1989)

Arguably useful addition

The following data was posted without verifying source citations. It has been moved here pending verfication ... but the more interesting question has to do with whether this kind of additional information would be potentially helpful in all the Nengō articles? Such a project would involve a lot of work for someone -- but it's not something I'm interested in developing. Presumably, the editor who added these two sections also felt unwilling to invest the level of work needed for full metastasis?

Births of the Eishō era

Eishō 7 (1510): Oda Nobuhide, general and father of Oda Nobunaga [died Tenbun 20 (1551)].
Eishō 7 (1510): Matsunaga Hisahide, general [died Tenshō 5 (1576)].
Eishō 8 (1511): Ashikaga Yoshiharu, 12th Shōgun of the Muromachi Bakufu [died Tenbun 19 (1550)].
Eishō 14, the 29th day of the 5th month (1517): Emperor Ōgimachi [died Bunroku 2 (1593)].

Deaths of the Eishō era

Eishō 8, on the 14th day of the 8th month (September 6, 1511): Ashikaga Yoshizumi, 11th Shōgun of the Muromachi Bakufu [born Bummei 12 (1480)].

In brief, the question becomes "Is this a good idea?" --Tenmei (talk) 20:09, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
