Japanese: その翌年（康保2年、965年）には刑部省、続いて衛門府兼検非違使として官僚への道を歩み始める。
English: His smooth promotion is mainly attributed to his connection with FUJIWARA no Koretada, who assumed Sessho (Regent) who had a maternal relationship with the emperor, and the connection was brought by Korenaka's grandmother FUJIWARA no Genki (the daughter of FUIWARA no Sugane and the legal wife of TAIRA no Tokimochi), who worked in the Imperial Court as a court lady and served to foster both Emperor Rezei and Enyu in their childhood.
Japanese: 順調な出世の背景には祖母の藤原元姫（藤原菅根の娘・中納言平時望室）が、女官として宮中に出仕して冷泉天皇・円融天皇両天皇の養育係を務めていた経歴によって、外戚である時の摂政藤原伊尹との関係を持ったことが大きいとされている。
English: Afterwards he held Zuryo (the provincial governor) of Mimasaka Province, Chikugo Province, Sagami Province, and Higo Province in turn, and his diligent work bought the favor of Sessho FUJIWARA no Kaneie, the younger brother of Koretada, so he became the Keishi (household superintendent) in Kaneie's family.
Japanese: それから、美作・筑後国・相模国・肥後国の受領を歴任したが、その勤勉振りを伊尹の弟である摂政藤原兼家に気に入られたことから兼家の家司となる。
English: In 987, he was chosen as Ushoben (Minor Controller of the Right), and then Uchuben (Middle Controller of the Right), both the staff of Benkan (Oversight Department: division of the daijokan responsible for controlling central and provincial government offices), thereby working with his colleague FUJIWARA no Arikuni as Kaneie's eyes and ears.
Japanese: 永延元年（987年）には右少弁→右中弁と弁官の要員に抜擢され、同僚の藤原有国と共に兼家の耳目として活躍する。
English: Afterward, in 989, he was promoted from Sachuben (Middle Controller of the Left) to Udaiben (Major Controller of the Right), the high-ranking position in Benkan.
Japanese: その後、989年（永延3年、改元して永祚(日本)元年）には、左中弁から右大弁へと弁官の高位に昇進する。
English: In the next year, on Kaneie's death, Korenaka recommended FUJIWARA no Michitaka, the first son of Kaneie, for the heir, so Korenaka was kindly treated also by Michitaka, and in 992, Korenaka reached Sangi (Royal Adviser), a member of the cabinet.
Japanese: その翌年（永祚2年/、改元して正暦元年、990年）の兼家死去の際には長男の藤原道隆を後継に推挙して彼からも厚遇され、正暦3年（992年）には、閣僚の一員である参議にまで昇進する。
English: At that time, Korenaka married FUJIWARA no Shigeko (Kaneie's younger half sister and the ex-wife of Kaneie's second son FUJIWARA no Michikane) who served as a wet nurse of Emperor Ichijo,
Japanese: また、この時期に、一条天皇の乳母で、兼家の異母妹にして、彼の次男藤原道兼の前妻の藤原繁子と結婚した。
English: In 994, Korenaka additionally assumed Sadaiben (Major Controller of the Left), the top position of Benkan.
Japanese: 更に、正暦5年（994年）には、弁官の首座である左大弁も兼務するまでになる。
English: But after the death of Michitaka in 995, Korenaka, having smelled the signs of the Nakanokanpaku family's decline, approached FUJIWARA no Michinaga, Michitaka's youngest brother.
Japanese: しかし長徳元年（995年）の道隆死去の後には、中関白家衰退の予兆を嗅ぎ取り、道隆の末弟の藤原道長に接近する。
English: This enabled Korenaka to be promoted to Gon Chunagon (a provisional vice-councilor of state) in 996, and then in 998, he reached Chunagon, the height of his career.
Japanese: これにより長徳2年（996年）に道長の閣員として権中納言に昇格、その翌々年の長徳4年（998年）には、生涯の極官である中納言にまで到達した。
English: In the next year, he additionally assumed Chugu daibu (Master of the Consort's Household), and served FUJIWARA no Teishi, the Empress of Emperor Ichijo, but he resigned from it just a half year later, being reluctant to have a connection to the Nakanokanpaku family which was in decline.
Japanese: 翌年（長徳5年、改元して長保元年、999年）、一条天皇の中宮藤原定子の中宮職の長官である中宮大夫を兼務するも、落ち目の中関白家と関わる事を嫌って、わずか半年で辞任する。
English: (Afterward, in her "Makura no Soshi" (the Pillow Book), Seishonagon made a fool of Korenaka's brother Taira no Narimasa who was entrusted to take care of Teishi, which suggested that she was angry towards Korenaka for abandoning the Nakanokanpaku family.)
Japanese: （この後、定子の世話を任された弟の中宮大進平生昌が、清少納言に色々と物笑いの種にされているのが『枕草子』に記されているが、これには中関白家を見限った惟仲に対する清少納言の怒りも込められている。）
English: Nevertheless, "Gonki" (FUJIWARA no Yukinari's diary) proclaims that it was only Korenaka who handled verything at the funeral of Teishi following her death, so his intention was totally unclear.
Japanese: もっとも、藤原行成の『権記』には、定子の死後にその葬儀を仕切ったのは専ら惟仲であったと記されており、その意図は不明であるとしか言いようが無い。
English: In 1001, he succeeded the job of his former colleague FUJIWARA no Arikuni, the then Dazai no daini (Senior Assistant Governor-General of the Dazai-fu offices), and Korenaka was transferred to Dazai-fu (the local government office in Kyushu region) as Dazai no gon no sochi while holding Chunagon, though in reality Nobuo KUROITA said Korenaka was appointed to Dazai no sochi (Governor-General of the Dazai-fu offices).
Japanese: 長保3年（1001年）、かつての同僚で、大宰大弐を勤めていた藤原有国の後を受けて、中納言兼務の大宰権帥として大宰府に赴任する（ただし黒板伸夫の研究によれば、実際に任じられたのは大宰帥であったとされる）。
English: A prime example of Korenaka's ability can be seen in his obtaining support for himself from jinin (associates of Shinto shrines) of Usa-jingu Shrine and other people, whom past Dazai no gon no sochi and Dazai no daini had great difficulty to deal with.
Japanese: そして歴代の権帥や大弐が手を焼いた宇佐神宮の神人達の支持も取り付けるなどの手腕を発揮した。
English: Two years later in 1003, Korenaka was honored with Junii.
Japanese: その翌々年の長保5年（1003年）には従二位を叙される栄冠に浴する。
English: However, he collided with opposing forces within Usa-jingu Shrine, and he was dismissed between January and February of 1005 from Dazai no gon no sochi due to their accusations.
Japanese: しかし、宇佐神宮内の反惟仲派との衝突で訴えられたのが元で、寛弘元年（1004年）の12月に大宰権帥を解任される。
English: After that, he lay on his sickbed, and on May 1, 1005, he passed away in Dazai-fu.
Japanese: その後彼は病に伏し、翌寛弘2年3月14日(旧暦)（1005年4月25日）に大宰府で逝去した。
English: He died at the age of 61; incidentally, "Mido Kanpakuki" (Diary of FUJIWARA no Michinaga) and "Shoyuki" (Diary of FUJIWARA no Sanesuke) says that Korenaka was cremated in Dazai-fu and that his ashes were brought back from there to Kyoto by his brother Narimasa.
Japanese: 享年61（この後、荼毘に付された惟仲の遺骨を弟の生昌が大宰府から都に持ち帰った事が、『御堂関白記』や『小右記』に記されている）。
English: Korenaka went up to Kyoto from a local province carrying nothing wth him, and he switched over from one place to another in the central political community having only his own wits which had been polished through study, and so he was promoted to high posts by influential persons such as Kaneie, Michitaka and Michinaga, until he finally reached the post of Junii Chunagon.
Japanese: 地方出身でありながら、惟仲はその身一つで都に上り、勉学で磨いた才覚を武器に中央政界を渡り歩き、兼家、道隆、そして道長と言った実力者達に重用され、遂には従二位中納言にまで上り詰めた。
English: This was an exception during this time, which may be proof that his outstanding talent attracted people's attention in those days.
Japanese: その姿は当時としては正に異例とも言うべきもので、それだけ惟仲の異才ぶりが、当時の世論の耳目を集めていたとも言えよう。
English: Yoshisato ROKKAKU was a busho (Japanese military commander) from the Sengoku period (period of warring states) (Japan) to the Azuchi-Momoyama period.
Japanese: 六角義郷（ろっかくよしさと）は戦国時代_(日本)、安土桃山時代の武将。

English: According to the "Shuinjo (Shogunate license to trade) of Nobunaga ODA to Genbanosuke SAITO as of January 11, 1575," his mother was 'a daughter of Inuyama no Ise no kami (Governor of Inuyama, Ise Province)' and there is a possibility that she was from the Oda clan of Shugodai (deputy of Shugo, provincial constable).
Japanese: 『天正三年正月十一日付斎藤玄蕃助宛織田信長朱印状』によると、母は「犬山之伊勢守息女」とされており、守護代織田家の出身である可能性もある。
English: According to general historical science, it is thought that Sadayori ROKKAKU, a brother of Ujitsuna, succeeded the family estate and that his descendants later succeeded the estate in later times.
Japanese: 歴史学の一般的な通説においては、氏綱の弟の六角定頼が家督を継承し、以降定頼の子孫が六角氏の家督を継いだと考えられている。
English: The following description is based on the hearsay that the family estate of the Rokkaku clan was succeeded by the descendants of Ujitsuna.
Japanese: 以下の記述は六角氏の家督は氏綱の子孫に受け継がれたとする異説を前提とした上のものになっている。
English: It is said that Nobunaga ODA thought to make him or a son of Yoshiaki become Ashikaga Shogun at one time.
Japanese: 織田信長は一時彼か義昭の息子を足利将軍にすることを考えていたともいう。
English: When Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI called hatagashira (head of armed groups) of the Omi Province on September 1, 1584, he was called from the Minoura-jo Castle and served Hideyoshi (according to another theory, it was Hidetsugu TOYOTOMI who called him).
Japanese: 天正12年（1584年）9月1日、豊臣秀吉が近江国の旗頭を召し出した折、箕浦城から呼び出されて秀吉に仕える（召し出したのは豊臣秀次であるとの説もある）。
English: Since his father Yoshihide was Sangi (councilor), he was assigned to be jiju and shosho (major general) and also was given the surname of Toyotomi in 1586 by Hideyoshi's effort ("Ryakumyo Dodai" (the Appointment List of Bureaucrats Ranked Fourth and Fifth)).
Japanese: 14年には父義秀が参議であったことから秀吉のはからいで侍従・少将に任じられ、豊臣姓の称号をも授かる（『歴名土代』）。
English: After that, he joined an army as junichimon (associate family) of the Toyotomi clan in the Kyushu Conquest by leading 400 troops with Nobuhide ODA (jiju) and others, and also joined an army in the Odawara Conquest, where he was invited to a tea ceremony ("The Tennojiya Kaiki" (Record of chanoyu gatherings compiled by three generations of the Tennojiya mercantile house)).
Japanese: 以後豊臣の準一門として九州征伐にも兵四百を率いて織田信秀(侍従)らとともに参陣、小田原征伐にも従軍し、陣中で茶会に招かれている（『天王寺屋会記』）。
English: In the Bunroku War, he also joined the first army under the direct control of Hideyoshi and stayed at the Hizen-Nagoya-jo Castle as 'orusuzaijinshu' (troops staying in Japan) with Hidetsuna HACHIMANYAMA, his brother who had become his adopted son ("Taikoki" (Chronicle of Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI)).
Japanese: 文禄の役でも秀吉直属軍の第一陣として出陣、弟で養子の八幡山秀綱とともに肥前名護屋城に「御留守在陣衆」として在番している（『太閤記』）。
English: He was rapidly promoted to Daimyo (Japanese feudal lord) of the Yawata-jo Castle with 120,000 koku and was given preferential treatment, which might have been affected by his connection with Hideyoshi and Hidetsugu and the fact that his mother was a daughter of Nobuhiro ODA.
Japanese: 秀吉・秀次との縁故や母が織田信広の娘であったことが影響してか、早々に累進を重ねて八幡城12万石の大名となり、極めて優遇された。
English: He received treatment almost equal to that of the Oda clan, such as being assigned to jiju and promoted in the official rank at the same time as Nobuhide and Hidenobu ODA, and being placed on a higher seat at the time of a visit to Jurakudai (Hideyoshi's residence and office in Kyoto) by the Emperor Goyozei on April 1588.
Japanese: 信秀や織田秀信と同時に侍従任官・官位昇進し、天正16年（1588年）4月の後陽成天皇聚楽第行幸などにおける殿中席次では近い席次に置かれるなど織田氏と近しい待遇を受けている。
English: He was treated as a person who was close to or a vassal (Yoriki, lower-ranked Samurai) of Hidetsugu, which might be caused from the common point of 'the Omi Province,' a territory of Hidetsugu.
Japanese: 秀次の領国「近江」という共通関係もあってか、秀次と近しい、もしくは配下（寄騎）の待遇であった。
English: It could be said that by achieving a stable position for the next generation of government, the revival of the Rokkaku clan was well on its way.

English: In the Hidetsugu Incident of 1595, he was implicated and punished, deprived of his fief because he fathered a daughter of Gon no suke NAMAZUE, his vassal, Hidetsugu's concubine on the advice of a vassal who had served Hidetsugu as kinju (attendant).
Japanese: 文禄4年（1595年）、秀次事件に際しては秀次近習となっていた家臣の勧めで家臣鯰江権佐の娘を秀次の側室に献上したことから連座して改易された。
English: Since he was young, he was not captured and instead permitted to live anywhere he wished by Hideyoshi.
Japanese: しかし、若年であったため身柄は捕縛されることはなく、秀吉から諸国居住勝手を許された。
English: Many vassals of the Rokkaku clan who were promoted with him were direct attendants of Hidetsugu, among whom Daizen KUMAGAI and Hitachi no suke KIMURA who committed Seppuku (suicide by disembowelment) in the Hidetsugu incident were most well-known.
Japanese: 彼と共に取り立てられた六角系家臣（元来は彼の家臣）の多くが秀次の直臣となっており、秀次事件で切腹した熊谷大膳、木村常陸介らはその代表格である。
English: When Hideyoshi died, he was given Daikanemitsu no tachi (a name of long sword) as a memento, which originally his grandfather Yoshihide had given to Hideyoshi with imina ji (a word of posthumous name), and the aristocrats of that time wondered the rum coincidence.
