Daidōji Yūzan (大道寺 友山, 1639 – December 11, 1730) was a samurai and military strategist of Edo period Japan. He was born in Fushimi in Yamashiro Province (present-day Fushimi-ku, Kyoto). Among the works he wrote in his late years was the widely circulated Budō Shoshin-shū (武道初心集), an introduction to warrior ethics that was influential among middle- and lower-class samurai. It has been translated into English by Arthur Lindsay Sadler as The Code of the Samurai (1941; 1988), William Scott Wilson as Budoshoshinshu: The Warrior's Primer and by Thomas Cleary.
