Shōgen (承元?) was a Japanese era name (年号, nengō,?, lit. "year name") after Shōka and before Bun'ō. This period spanned the years from March 1259 through April 1260.[1] The reigning emperors were Go-Fukakusa-tennō (後深草天皇?) and Kameyama-tennō (亀山天皇?).[2]

- 1259 Shōgen gannen (承元元年?): The new era name was created to mark an event or a number of events. The years of the Shōgen era was in a period marked by famine and epidemics; and the era name was changed in quick succession in the hope that this might bring them to a close.[3] The previous era ended and a new one commenced in Shōka 3.
