English: In 1333, after winning against the bakufu army at Mt. Senjo, Emperor Godaigo assembled pro-Imperialist warlords who were in the Chugoku region such as Nagatoshi NAWA, and before the Emperor's return to Kyoto, he sent an advanced army with Tono Chujo (the first secretary's captain) Tadaaki CHIGUSA as the supreme commander to join with Norimura AKAMATSU of the Harima Domain who was surrounding the capital and attacking the Rokuhara Tandai (the office of shogunal deputy in Kyoto placed by the Kamakura bakufu).
Japanese: 元弘3年（1333年）、先の船上山の戦いにおいて幕府軍に対し勝利を収めた後醍醐天皇は、名和長年ら中国地方周辺の勤皇派諸将を結集、京都への還幸の為の露払いとして頭中将・千種忠顕を総大将とした先発隊を送り込み、先に京を囲み六波羅探題を攻撃していた播磨国の赤松則村と合流させる。
English: Although Takanori KOJIMA was in the advanced army, he formed another corps and deployed it because of a conflict regarding their strategic plan with the supreme commander Tadaaki CHIGUSA.
Japanese: 児島高徳はこの先発隊に従軍していたものの、総大将・千種忠顕との作戦上での衝突が原因で別働隊を率い布陣を行う。
English: The commander Tadaaki CHIGUSA was soundly defeated due to his impatience, and Takanori could not finish deploying his corps before Takauji ASHIKAGA and some other commanders who had already joined Emperor Godaigo's side made an all-out attack on Kyoto, and accordingly, he returned to Kojima in Bizen Province without any distinguished service.
Japanese: この時大将・千種忠顕は功に逸り大敗、布陣途中であった高徳は先に後醍醐天皇方に回った足利尊氏勢らの京都総攻撃に遅れをとり、戦功を挙げることなく退却し、備前児島へ帰還した。
English: Taiheiki (The Record of the Great peace) described Takanori KOJIMA's rage against Tadaaki CHIGUSA at the attack of the Rokuhara.
Japanese: 太平記では、この六波羅攻めの際の千種忠顕に対する児島高徳の激怒の様子が記されている。
English: As a grant for honors after this war, Takanori KOJIMA was awarded Kyuryoando (recognition and guarantee, by the shogunate, of ownership of the inherited estate of a samurai who pledged allegiance to it) and a private estate called Tottorisho.
Japanese: 又、この戦いの後の論功行賞で、児島高徳は旧領安堵、及び荘園を賜った。
English: In 1335, in response to Takauji ASHIKAGA, a rebellion occurred in Bicchu Province and Takanori went there to suppress it, but he eventually lost his foothold, Mitsuishi-jo Castle in Bizen Province, as well as most of his family members due to betrayal of his vassals.
Japanese: 建武(日本)2年（1335年）、足利尊氏に呼応して備中国で反乱が起こり高徳が討伐に向かうが、却って拠点であった備前三石城を奪われた上に配下の内応によって一族の大半が討たれてしまう。
English: His foster father Norinaga was forced to kill himself by the Akamatsu clan, and also, Takanori fainted during a battle, but his nephew's quick thinking made it possible for him to get out of the battle.
Japanese: 養父・範長は赤松氏によって自害させられ、本人も戦闘中に気を失ってしまい、居合わせた甥の機転によって辛うじて逃げ延びた。
English: Later on, he attempted a comeback but failed it, and then he ran to Yoshino to meet Emperor Gomurakami (according to the theory of Takanori being the author of "Taiheiki," he was supposed to have written the original book of Taiheiki around this time).
Japanese: 後に故郷において再起を図るもこれにも失敗して吉野の後村上天皇のもとへ逃れる（高徳を『太平記』の著者とする説によれば、この時期に原本が書かれたとされている）。
English: In 1352, he was said to have tried to return to the capital by order of Emperor Gomurakami, but his whereabouts after that is unknown and there are various opinions about that.
Japanese: 正平(日本)7年/文和元年（1352年）に後村上天皇を奉じて上洛を試みたとされるが、以後の消息については諸説があって不明である。
English: Although he has been praised as a loyal subject of the Southern Court for a long time, as there is no other literature to show his actual involvement apart from the war chronicle "Taiheiki," some people still strongly believe that he was a fictional character.
Japanese: 古くから南朝(日本)の忠臣として讃えられてきたが、具体的な活動を示す文献が軍記物語の『太平記』以外にはないために架空の人物とする説も根強い。
English: In addition, some people believe that he was the same person as Kojima Hoshi (priest), who edited the book, or that Takanori was from a local powerful yamabushi (mountain priest) family.
Japanese: また、同書の編者である小島法師と同一人物とする説や、高徳を地元の山伏勢力出身と見る説もある。
English: In 1914, a Monbusho Shoka (song authorized by the Ministry of Education) named 'Kojima Takanori' was released and it was published in "Jinjo Shogaku Shoka Dai Rokugakunen yo" (songs for school music classes, for sixth graders).
Japanese: 1914年には、文部省唱歌「児島高徳」が発表され、『尋常小学唱歌　第六学年用』に掲載された。
English: Verse 1: After Mt. Funasaka, Sugisaka and all the way to Innosho, he followed the Emperor to tell his wish, engraved a verse in ten characters.
Japanese: 1.船坂山や杉坂と、御あと慕ひて院の庄、微衷をいかで聞えんと、桜の幹に十字の詩。
English: Verse 2: Although it was against his wish wetting his sleeves with dews and tears, he was such a smart person that he could make the Emperor smile with this ten-character poem on the cherry tree.
Japanese: 2.御心ならぬいでましの、御袖露けき朝戸出に、誦（ずん）じて笑ますかしこさよ、桜の幹の十字の詩。
English: One theory says that he was from the Miyake clan who had been originally from China or Korea, and the other says that he was an Imperial descendant.
Japanese: すなわち渡来系の三宅氏の出であるという説と、皇胤であるという説である。
English: The latter theory consists of two different opinions: a descendant of Emperor Gotoba, and a descendant of Emperor Uda.
Japanese: 後者は、後鳥羽天皇の後であるという説と、宇多天皇の後であるという説に分かれる。
English: Among these theories, the one connecting him to the Miyake clan is older than the others which insist he was an Imperial descendant.
Japanese: このうち、三宅氏につなげる説は最も古く、皇胤であるという説はそれよりも新しい。
English: As it is impossible to change someone's Imperial linage to an immigrant, someone might have forged the story, considering that the loyal subject Takanori KOJIMA being a naturalized person was not good.
Japanese: もともと皇胤の血筋である系図を渡来系に変えることはまずありえないから、結局忠臣児島高徳が帰化系とあっては具合が悪いと感じた人々が、伝承を作り変えたものであろう。
English: That could be the reason why "Taiheiki" is the only material to prove this.
Japanese: その為に確実な資料と出来るものは『太平記』唯一つと言っても差し支えはあるまい。
English: This means that these theories cannot lead to anything that confirms the existence of Takanori KOJIMA who appears in "Taiheiki."
Japanese: つまり、これらの説は『太平記』に記述される児島高徳という人物自体の存在を裏付ける結論へはまだまだ至らないということである。
English: The theory insists that he was a child of the priest named Raien, a grandchild of the Imperial Prince Yorihito (the fourth son of Emperor Gotoba), who was exiled to Kojima, Bizen Province after the Jokyu War.
Japanese: 承久の乱の折、後鳥羽上皇の第四皇子・頼仁親王が備前国児島へと配流となり、その孫の僧・頼宴の子という説。
English: The Sonryu-in Temple is one of Shugendo (Japanese ascetic and shamanistic practice in mountainous sites) temples, and accordingly, this theory makes Takanori KOJIMA have something to do with yamabushi (mountain priests).
Japanese: 尊瀧院は修験道の一流を担っており、延いては児島高徳を山伏勢力と結びつける説でもある。
English: There is another version of this theory which says that Nobu, who was a daughter of Bongo no kami Norinaga, married to Raien and had Takanori KOJIMA, and according to this theory, Bizen no kami Norinaga was Takanori KOJIMA's maternal grandfather.
Japanese: この説には、備後守範長の娘が信夫であり、これが頼宴へ嫁いで出生したのが児島高徳という異説もあり、これを以って備後守範長は児島高徳の外祖父とすることができるという。
English: However, the theory of him being a descendant of the Retired Emperor Gotoba was created in the Meiji period, and there was no proof that such a legend existed before that.
Japanese: ただし、後鳥羽上皇の後裔であるとする系図は明治時代に作られたものであり、それ以前からこのような伝承があったという証拠はない。
English: When the stone pagoda, which is thought to have been established during the time of the Imperial Prince Yorihito, at the Sonryu-in Temple was repaired and investigated in 1970, Shari (Buddhist relics) were found.
Japanese: 尚、尊瀧院内に現存する頼仁親王当時建立とされる石塔を昭和45年（1970年）に修繕・調査した際、舎利が発見された。
English: This fact strengthened a commonly accepted theory that Imperial Prince Yorihito and his younger brother the Imperial Prince Kakunin built a stone pagoda on the first anniversary of the Retired Emperor Gotoba's death and buried his ashes and bones in separate places.
Japanese: これを受け、頼仁親王と弟の覚仁親王が後鳥羽上皇一周忌の際に分骨を行い、これとともにこの石塔を建立したのではないか、という従来からの通説はより濃厚となった。
English: However, this cannot be connected to Takanori KOJIMA's origin to make him as a descendant of the Emperor.
Japanese: しかし、児島高徳の出自と関連付け、これの後裔であるとするには到らない。
English: According to this theory, the Imperial Prince Atsuyoshi, a son of Emperor Uda, was exiled to Kojima in Bizen Province, and Takanori KOJIMA was a biological son of the 14th descendant of the prince called Bingo no kami Norinaga.
Japanese: 宇多天皇皇子・敦慶親王が備前児島に配流されたのち、その十四代目・備後守範長の実子が児島高徳という説。
English: Another version has it that Takanori's ancestor was Shigenori (should be the same person as a grandfather of Norinaga WADA who appears in another theory called Amenohiboko theory) the second son of Morinori, who was the youngest son of Moritsuna SASAKI from the Uda-Genji, who worked for Yoritomo MINAMOTO, but the only proof of this theory is "Seishi Kakei Daijiten" (a large dictionary of Japanese surnames) published by Kadokawa Group Publishing Co., Ltd., and as the source of the dictionary was not clear, it is not highly credible.
Japanese: 異説として、源頼朝に従った宇多源氏・佐々木盛綱末子・盛則の次男・重範（天之日矛後裔説・和田範長祖父と同一か）を祖とする説もあるが、この説の場合は角川書店発刊『姓氏家系大辞典』のみが出典であり、同書の出典の不明瞭な点から説の根拠としてはやや信憑性に欠けることが言える。
English: Regarding this version, it is also said that it could have been a mix-up with the Kojima (written as 小島 in Japanese, not Takanori's 児島) clan of the Sasakikaji family.
Japanese: この異説には、佐々木加地氏一族の小島氏との混同ではないかとの指摘もある。
English: This theory has Takanori as a descendant of Amenohiboko, a son of the King of Shilla who appeared in Japanese mythology ("Nihon Shoki" [The Chronicles of Japan] and "Kojiki" [The Records of Ancient Matters]).
Japanese: 日本神話（『日本書紀』・『古事記』）に登場する新羅王の子・アメノヒボコの後裔という説。
English: Amenohiboko was said to have left for Japan and settled in Tajima Province, and then he naturalized during the reign of Emperor Suinin, and additionally, he was thought to have left some descendants in the course of that.
Japanese: 天之日矛は日本へ渡来し、但馬国へ土着し垂仁天皇の治世において帰化したと言われており、その途上において子孫を残したのではないかと思われる。
English: Since there was a document stating that places called Imaki, Wada, and Kojima of Misato, Kojima County were addressed as Kojima-Miyake, one of directly-controlled territories of the Imperial Court, the descendants of Amenohiboko chose Miyake as their family name.
Japanese: 又、児島郡三郷の今木・和田・児島はかつて朝廷直轄領である児島屯倉と呼称したという資料のあることから、天之日矛の後裔が三宅を本姓としたという。
English: There are many different versions of this Amenohiboko theory, and another says that Amenohiboko's descendant called the Miyake clan who was a local powerful clan in Shikama, Harima Province, was a clan which had been pressured by the Taira clan at the Jisho-Juei War and settled in Kojima, Bizen Province.
Japanese: この天之日矛後裔説については異説が多く、播磨国飾磨の土着勢力であった天之日矛後裔三宅氏が、治承・寿永の乱の際に平氏に圧迫されて備前児島へ土着したというものもある。
English: Seigeninbon Taiheiki (The Record of the Great Peace, the Seigen-in Temple Version) says that a biological son of Saburo IMAKI Bingo no kami Norinaga, a descendant of Amenohiboko, was Takanori KOJIMA.
Japanese: 『西源院本太平記』では、この天之日矛の後裔・今木三郎備後守範長の実子が児島高徳であるとしている。
English: Some of family trees made according to this theory have a description which says that Norinaga's grandfather Shigenori served Yoritomo MINAMOTO, and because of his great achievement, he was appointed Jito shiki (manager and lord of a private estate) in Kojima, Bizen Province.
Japanese: この説の流れを汲んだ系図には、範長の祖父・重範は源頼朝に従い、功があって備前国児島の地頭職に就いたと記述されたものもある。
English: The reason was that there was no other literature to show Takanori's activities in detail apart from "Taiheiki," and this evoked disputes whether he existed or not.
Japanese: 論点としては、具体的な活動を示す文献が『太平記』以外に無い事等が挙げられ、実在の有無をめぐり論争となった。
English: After World War II, Takanori KOJIMA rapidly became less popular due to the disapproval of the Kokoku Shikan (emperor-centered historiography), and consequently, disputes came to the end virtually as people no longer talked about this theory.
Japanese: 第二次世界大戦後、皇国史観が否定されると児島高徳の知名度も著しく低下する事となり、これと同時に実在否定説が主張されることもなくなり、事実上この論争は終息したと言ってよい。
English: The theory says that one of the authors of the book was Kojima Hoshi and this person was someone close to the family of Takanori KOJIMA or Takanori KOJIMA himself and Takanori wrote "Taiheiki."
Japanese: 一説に、著者の一人が小島法師という人物であり、児島高徳の一族に近しい者か、或いは小島法師は児島高徳自身であり、児島高徳が『太平記』を著したのではないかとする説。
English: The theory was suggested because it was strange that contents relating to Takanori KOJIMA were too detailed and too many, even though he was just a samurai.
Japanese: 一武士である児島高徳に関連する記述の内容が余りにも詳細、且つ広範囲に亘っている事から疑問視され、提唱された説である。
English: According to "The Biography of the Miyake Clan" owned by descendants of Takanori KOJIMA, Takanori was born in 1312 and died in Kokai Village, Oura County, Kozuke Province on January 6, 1383.
Japanese: 児島高徳の子孫の所蔵する『三宅氏正伝記』には、正和元年（1312年）生誕、弘和二年（1382年）十一月二十四日、上野国邑楽郡古海村に於いて没したと記されている。
English: This "The Biography of the Miyake Clan" is an important and rare family book to studies of Takanori KOJIMA, but whether it is accurate or not is still questionable from the point of the rightness of this material itself; therefore the dates of his birth and death should remain as unknown.
Japanese: この『三宅氏正伝記』は、児島高徳の研究に於いて重要、且つ貴重な資料とされる家伝書であるが、これらが正確かといえば、資料自体の正当性の点から疑問符が残るため、やはり生没年は不詳とせざるを得ない。
English: In the Tomo region of Gunma Prefecture where the Nittanosho (Nitta estate) was, it has been said that Takanori moved to this area in his last years counting on a samurai named Tarohirofusa KOKAI, and he entered priesthood with the name of Bingosaburo-Nyudo-Yoshiharu SHIZUMI and lived there from 1371 until his death in 1838.
Japanese: 新田庄がある群馬県東毛地方では、高徳が晩年に古海太郎広房という武将を頼ってこの地に移り住み、出家して備後三郎入道志純義晴と名乗り、建徳二年（1371年）から弘和二年（1382年）に没するまでを過ごしたと伝えられている。
English: Additionally, in Kokai, Oizumi Town, Gunma Prefecture, there are a tomb believed to be of Takanori, a temple (Kotoku-ji Temple) where is believed that Takanori lived at, and a Shinto shrine (Kojima-jinja Shrine) raised to Takanori.
Japanese: また、群馬県大泉町古海には、高徳のものとされる墓や住んでいたとされる寺（高徳寺）、高徳を祀る神社（児島神社）などがある。
English: His wife was Sadako, the third daughter of Kazumichi KONO from the Kono clan of the Iyo Province, and they had three sons and one daughter.
Japanese: 妻は、伊予国の河野氏一族、河野和道の三女の貞子で、夫婦の間には3男1女が生まれた。
English: Although it is said that a Sengoku daimyo (Japanese territorial lord in the Sengoku period) called the Ukita clan was derived from him, as there was another theory in regard to the origin of the Ukita clan, it is impossible to decide that the clan was descent from him with absolute certainty.
Japanese: ここから後の戦国大名・宇喜多氏が出たとされるが、宇喜多氏の出自については別の説もある為、一概に子孫であるとは言えない。
English: One of his descendants is the Sawada family who produced the ninth Mihogasaki Oyakata (stablemaster), who had been an Ozeki (Sumo wrestler in the second highest rank) Daishiro MASUIYAMA, in Grand Sumo.
Japanese: 子孫に、大相撲の第9代三保ヶ関親方（大関・増位山大志郎）を輩出した澤田家がある。
English: According to one theory, her name was Tokuko (written as 徳子 in Japanese), but it is also possible that she was named Tokuko in later ages, using one character from Takanori (高徳).
Japanese: 名は一説に徳子とされるが、後世になって高徳から1字をとってつけられた可能性もある。
English: There are some family trees showing that she became the wife of Yoshiharu WAKIYA and had Yoshifuyu (however, some other family trees show Yoshifuyu as Yoshiharu's younger brother), or she married a man from the Miyashita clan in Kozuke Province, but what happened to her exactly is unknown.
Japanese: 脇屋義治の妻になり義冬を生んだとか（ただし、義冬を義治の弟とする系図もある）、上野国の宮下氏に嫁いだなどの系図が残るが正確なところは不明。
English: It was originally a large shrine in the middle of Mt. Sou, but it was moved to a small shrine built in the grounds of the Tamaigu-Toshogu Shrine in 1953 due to severe dilapidation after World War II.
Japanese: 元々は操山の中腹にあった大きな神社であったが、第二次世界大戦後、荒廃著しく、昭和28年（1953年）に玉井宮東照宮境内に作られた小さな祠へ遷された。
English: It is at the keep of Taha-jo Castle, the government building of the Tahara Domain, (Mikawa Province), where descendants of Takanori KOJIMA were the lords.
Japanese: 児島高徳の後裔が藩主となった田原藩の藩庁、田原城(三河国)本丸にある神社。
English: In the precincts of the shrine, there are two rocks named as 'Koshikake Iwa' (Rock for sitting) and 'Hatatate Iwa' (Rock where Takanori put his flag up) in relation to his raising an army in 1336.
Japanese: 境内には、1336年の挙兵に関連する「腰掛け岩」「旗立岩」と名づけられた岩がある。
English: The temple is in the place used as his father Norinaga WADA's base, and it has a memorial tower for Takanori KOJIMA and his family.
Japanese: 父、和田範長の本拠だった地にある寺で、児島高徳と一族の供養塔がある。
English: The front of two-yen notes issued by the National Bank in August 1873 had an image of Yoshisada NITTA presenting a sword at Inamuragasaki on the right-hand side and an image of Takanori KOJIMA writing the verse on the cherry tree with Indian ink on the left-hand side.
Japanese: 明治6年（1873年）8月発行の国立銀行(日本)紙幣2円券の表面には、右側に稲村ヶ崎で太刀を奉じる新田義貞が、左側に桜の木に詩を墨書する児島高徳が描かれている。
English: These were famous stories printed in school textbooks used until the end of World War II.
Japanese: いずれも、第二次世界大戦終結までの学校で使われた教科書で取り上げられた有名なエピソードである。
English: It is said that his mother is Onabe no kata (Kyounin), a daughter of Genjuro TAKAHATA, but there are different opinions (refer to 'About His Birth Mother').
Japanese: 母は高畑源十郎の娘・お鍋の方（興雲院）と言われるが異説もある（生母について）。
English: In 1582, when his father, Nobunaga, died in the Honnoji Incident, as he was still a young child, he was placed with Yukihiro UJIIE to be brought up.
Japanese: 天正10年（1582年）、本能寺の変において父・信長が死去したときはまだ幼年であったため、氏家行広に預けられて養育を受けた。
English: Later, he became a vassal of Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI, and he was given the territory of 1060 koku in Yamagami, Kanzaki County, Omi Province (current Shiga Prefecture) and selected as Kihoroshu (selected bodyguards of Hideyoshi TOYOTOMI) in 1591.
Japanese: その後、豊臣秀吉の家臣となり、1591年には近江国神崎郡(滋賀県)山上内で1060石の所領を与えられ、黄母衣衆に列せられる。
English: In 1595, he was awarded an increase of 1000 koku of Hidemochi AWANO's former territory in Aichi County (current Shiga Prefecture) and then, his territory amounted to 2060 koku.
Japanese: 1595年に愛知郡(滋賀県)にて粟野秀用の旧領1000石を加増され2060石となった。
English: Generally, he is considered the first son between Nobunaga and Onabe no kata, but there is few evidence to support this such as being given the territory in Yamagami which is the former territory of the Ogura clan.
Japanese: 一般的には信長とお鍋の方の間の長子とされているが、これを裏付ける証拠は小倉氏の旧領である山上に所領を与えられたことなど少ない。
English: Who accompanied Onabe no kata on living in the seclusion of her home in Omi was her younger maternal half-brother, Nobuyoshi ODA, and also Nobuyoshi was given the territory in Aichi County of Sanezumi OGURA, the husband of Onabe no kata, while the association between Onabe no kata and Nobutaka cannot be confirmed by historical materials at the time.
Japanese: お鍋の方が近江の実家に隠棲した際伴ったのは同母弟とされる織田信吉であり、お鍋の方の夫小倉実澄の愛知郡の所領も信吉に与えられていて、お鍋の方と信高の繋がりは、当時の史料からは確認できない。
English: Furthermore, the data that his position among the Oda family is higher than Nobuyoshi although he was born after Nobuyoshi suggests the possibility that his birth mother is a concubine of higher rank rather than Onabe no kata.
Japanese: また信吉よりも出生が後でありながら織田家中においては席次が上にきており、お鍋の方とは別の上位の側室が生母の可能性も示唆されている。
English: The things about this concubine, including her existence, is not clear at all, but it is highly possible that she is a daughter of the Ujiie clan or a powerful local lord of West Mino associated with the Ujiie clan because of the following data: Nobutaka was placed with Yukihiro UJIIE, the second son of Naomoto UJIIE of the Three of West Mino; when Naoshige UJIIE, the first son of Naomoto, supported Nobutaka (信孝) at the battle of Nobutaka ODA (織田信孝) versus Hideyoshi, Nobutaka (信高) was also placed in confinement at home in Utsunomiya with Yukihiro (being placed in confinement at home can be interpreted as having been implicated as a relative).
Japanese: この側室については存在を含め一切不明であるが、後に信高が西美濃三人衆の氏家直元の次子である氏家行広に預けられていること、直元長男の氏家直重が織田信孝と秀吉の戦いに際して信孝についた折、行広と共に信高も宇都宮で蟄居していることから、氏家氏か氏家氏ゆかりの西美濃の有力国人の娘である可能性が高い（蟄居するということは、縁者として連座したと解釈できる）。
English: The Sassa clan, which is the birthplace of the lawful wife of Nobutaka himself, is also in Kasugai County in northwestern Owari Province, and it is not so far from Nishi Mino.
Japanese: 信高自身の正室の生家である佐々氏も尾張国北西部の春日井郡であり、西美濃とはそれほど離れていない。
English: It is quite natural to think that before the downfall of Narimasa SASSA (and thus, before the seppuku of Nobutaka), the Sassa clan, whose original fief was close to that of Nobutaka's mother's family, tried to become maternal relatives of the Oda clan, in opposition to Hideyoshi, by form a marriage bond with Nobutaka, with whom the Sassa clan had a territorial relationship and whose mother's social status was also high.
Japanese: 当時は佐々成政の没落前（ことによると、信孝の切腹前）でもあることから、信高生母の一族と本領が近い佐々氏が秀吉との対抗上地縁があり、生母の身分も高い信高と縁組して織田家の外戚となろうとしたと考えると自然であろう。
English: If he were a son of a concubine related deeply to Nobutaka(信孝) and Narimasa, it would be explained why he had suffered an indignity in the Toyotomi government period and he had been treated very well as Koke (master of ceremony in Edo bukufu) after the foundation of the Edo bakufu (Narimasa SASSA was approaching Ieyasu in ways such as Sarasara Toge Goe (over the Sarasara Pass) in the period of hegemonic establishment of Hideyoshi).
Japanese: 信孝、成政と縁故が深い側室の子とすると、豊臣政権時代の冷遇、江戸開幕後に高家に取り立てられ厚遇されたことの説明がつく（佐々成政は秀吉の覇権確立期にはさらさら峠越えなど、家康に接近する姿勢を取っていた）。
English: Because both Obora and Kobora/Gobo are place-name of Mino, It would appear that they came from the origin of each birth mother.
Japanese: 大洞、小洞ともに、美濃の地名であることから、それぞれの生母の出身に由来したとも考えられる。
English: According to "Kansei Choshu Shokafu" (genealogies of vassals in Edo Bakufu), at the battle of Sekigahara in 1600, although he supported Eastern Camp with his younger brother Nobutada ODA, he failed to arrive at the main battle and had an audience with Ieyasu TOKUGAWA who was returning home with glory.
Japanese: 『寛政重修諸家譜』によれば、1600年の関ヶ原の戦いに際し、弟織田信貞と共に東軍を支持したものの、本戦に間に合わず、凱旋中の徳川家康に拝謁したという。
English: However "Sekigahara Gunki Taise" (the grand collection of the war chronicles of Sekigahara) said that he belonged to Western Camp with his younger brothers, Nobuyoshi and Nobusada ODA, and he apologized and obtained absolution after the war.
Japanese: しかし、『関原軍記大成』などでは、弟の織田信吉・信貞らとともに西軍に属し、戦後に謝罪、赦免されたという。
English: The latter is probably correct, and it seems that he belonged to Western Camp same as his younger brother Nobuyoshi and he lost his territory.
Japanese: おそらくは後者が正しく、弟信吉と同様に西軍に所属し、失領したものと思われる。
English: In January 1616, Nobutaka's first son, Takashige ODA, newly served as a vassal of the shogun and he was given 2000 koku in Omi Province and Awa Province.
Japanese: 1616年1月、信高の長男織田高重は新たに幕臣として召し出されて、近江国・安房国に2000石を与えられた。
English: In addition, Nobunari ODA (figure skater), who won the world junior figure skating championships in March 2005, is a descendant of the Hatamoto Oda family of Nobutaka's line, and he is regarded as a 17th-generation descendant of Nobunaga (actually, because the family had adoptees, genetically he is not direct line of Nobutaka but a descendant of Nobukatsu).
Japanese: また、2005年3月に行われたフィギュアスケート世界ジュニア選手権で優勝した織田信成(フィギュアスケート選手)は、信高系の旗本織田家の末裔で、信長から数えて17代目の子孫とされている（ただし、途中で養子が入っているため、血筋の上では信高の直系ではなく信雄の子孫となる）。
English: Hisataka KUKI (1617 - March 6, 1649) is the second lord of Toba Domain in the Province of Shima and the first load of Sanda Domain in the Province of Settsu.
Japanese: 九鬼久隆（くきひさたか、元和(日本)3年（1617年）-慶安2年1月23日(旧暦)（1649年3月6日））は、志摩国鳥羽藩の第2代藩主、摂津国三田藩の初代藩主。
English: It is said that his birth year is 1617 or 1618.
Japanese: 生年は元和3年（1617年）、もしくは元和4年（1618年）と言われている。
English: He became an adopted child of Sakon, a son of his father's older brother by a concubine Naritaka KUKI, and he was fostered out to Kongosho-ji Temple at the age of eight and took the name of Hisayoshi.
Japanese: 父の庶兄九鬼成隆の子左近の養子となり、8歳の時金剛証寺に預けられ、寿良と名乗る。
English: After his eldest brother and legitimate son Yoshitaka KUKI was disinherited because of poor health, Hisataka became adopted heir of Yoshitaka.
Japanese: 長兄で嫡子だった九鬼良隆が病弱のため廃嫡された後、久隆は良隆の養嗣子となる。
