Female Samurai in Sengoku Japan - Lady Nene in Assassin's Creed Shadows EXPLAINED

Описание: Lady Nene was the samurai wife of the great unifier Toyotomi Hideyoshi. She held arguably equal political power to her great husband. Practiced in samurai virtue, trained in combat and skilled in political strategy, where does she fall amongst famed female samurai? Matt Lewis is joined by historian Lesley Downer to discover the TRUE story of Lady Nene, one of Assassin’s Creed Shadows recurring characters and one of medieval Japan’s most remarkable women. Together, they explore what life was really like for a samurai’s wife in the age of warring states, and how women helped shape the politics and power of medieval Japan.
