Story
【内容紹介】日本人であるならば、知っておきたい。「古事記」について。戦後になって皇国史観が廃れるとともに「古事記」などに書かれた日本神話も捨てられ、現在それを知らない日本人はたくさんいる。今、日本神話を見直すということは、決して戦前の思想に戻ることではなく、わが国の成り立ちを見つめるという大切な作業なのだ。「古事記」を読むのは難解であるが、本作品では阿刀田高氏によって平易に語られている。 【講師紹介】作家 阿刀田高- 1935年、東京都生まれ。世界各国の古典を読み解いた『ギリシア神話を知っていますか』などがベストセラーとなった。日本ペンクラブ会長。

Story
Most remote islands of the imagination conjure up paradise. Japan is an archipelago of puzzlement. From the sands that forged their swords and serenity, they traveled a Samurai Road of temples and shrines, feudal fortresses, and flowing mountain streams of wasabi. On sashimi and soy sauce, and green tea over rice, they lived a thousand years of pathos, under cherry blossoms and ephemeral moonlight, in Zen gardens and futon dreams. It was all so perfect.

Story
なぜ明智光秀は謀反を起こしたのか。日本史上、最大のミステリーと言われ、既に語られつくした感のあるテーマですが、人事制度という観点から紐といていくと、意外な側面が見えてきます。 そもそも、明智光秀という人はどのような人物だったのだろうか。実は前半生については記録があまり残っていないが、成年期以降に越前・朝倉氏、その後は流浪の将軍・足利義昭に仕え、やがて織田家に仕官したことだけははっきりしている。 この点からわかるのは、光秀は“忠誠心”とか“一所懸命”をアピールするタイプではなく、きわめて打算的かつ合理的な人物だということだ。キャリアデザインの大基本は「常に選択肢が増えるように行動する」ことだが、田舎大名→将軍家→いけいけどんどんの織田家という転職は、見事にその後の彼のキャリアの選択肢を広げているのがわかる。 城繁幸『サラリーマン・キャリアナビ』★出世と喧嘩の正しい作法はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/joe.html
