The shogun who implemented a policy of isolationism in Japan was Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate.

Tokugawa Ieyasu (with an I, not an L) was the first Shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate which ruled Japan from 1603 until 1868. The Tokugawa clan took control after a long period of civil war known as the Sengoku Jidai, the "warring states period".Shogun basically means "commander in chief". The Shogun was the overall commander of the Japanese military from the end of the 1100s until 1868. Although the Tenno (emperor) was technically the ruler of Japan, the Shoguns were the real rulers during this time.
The Edo Period lasted roughly from 1603 to 1868. It was the time of the Tokugawa Bakufu. This period was called the Edo Period because Tokugawa Ieyasu, the first Tokugawa shogun, established his capital in Edo (Present day Tokyo.)
