Japanese: 当時一般的にいわれていた、清順美学は『野獣の青春』で突然開花したという定説を自ら覆し、デビュー作の頃から意識していたと発言した。

English: Sadatsuna OUCHI (1545 - 1610) was a warlord of the Sengoku Period (Period of Warring States).
Japanese: 大内　定綱（おおうち　さだつな、天文(元号)14年（1545年）－慶長15年（1610年））は戦国時代(日本)の武将。
English: During the reign of his father, Yoshitsuna, Ouchi clan complied with the demand of the Tamura clan and banished their lord, Hisayoshi ISHIBASHI; and Yoshitsuna became the feudal lord of Shionomatsu (eastern part of Adachi District) and belonged under the command of the Tamura clan; however, Sadatsuna, who took over as head of the family, gradually planned to gain independence due to his frustration about decisions made over conflicts between vassals of the Tamura and Ouchi clans.
Japanese: 大内氏は、父・義綱の代に田村氏の内応工作に応じて主君・石橋尚義を追放し、塩松領主となって田村氏の旗下に属していたが、家督を継いだ定綱は、田村・大内両家の家臣同士の争いの裁決に対する不満から、次第に田村氏からの独立を目論むようになる。

Japanese: またこの頃、娘を二本松城主畠山義継の子・二本松義綱に嫁がせて足場を固めた。
English: In 1583 he attacked Mitsumasa ISHIKAWA, the castellan of the Domeki-jo Castle in Tamura territory (he banished Hisayoshi in conspiracy with the old retainer of the Ishibashi clan and Yoshitsuna), defeated Kiyoaki TAMURA with the support of Moritaka ASHINA, who was an enemy of the Tamura clan, and succeeded in gaining independence.
Japanese: こうして1583年、田村領の百目木城主石川光昌（石橋氏旧臣、義綱と組んで尚義を追放した）を攻撃、田村氏と対立していた蘆名盛隆の支援を受けて田村清顕を破り独立を果たす。
English: However, after Masamune DATE, the son of Terumune (his lawful wife was Princess Ai, the daughter of Kiyoaki TAMURA) took over as head of the family in 1584, Masamune sided with the Tamura clan and attacked Sadatsuna, one of such attacks being a clean sweep of opponents in Odemori-jo Castle; thus Sadatsuna abandoned Obama-jo Castle and escaped to Nihonmatsu (a town in Adachi District), and then relied upon the Ashina clan of Aizu Province.
Japanese: しかし、1584年に輝宗の子・伊達政宗（正室は田村清顕の娘・愛姫）が家督を継ぐと、政宗は田村氏に加担して定綱を攻撃し、小手森城で撫で斬りを行うなどしたため、定綱は小浜城を放棄して二本松へ逃れ、ついで会津の蘆名氏を頼った。
English: During the Battle of Koriyama in 1588, he captured the Nawashiroda-jo Castle as a Japanese military commander of the Ashina clan, but retuned to the Date clan with his younger brother, Chikatsuna KATAHIRA, at the invitation of Shigezane DATE.
Japanese: 1588年、郡山合戦の際には蘆名氏の部将として苗代田城を攻略するが、伊達成実の誘いに応じて弟の片平親綱と共に伊達氏に帰参した。

Japanese: 1591年、政宗が岩出山城に転封されると、胆沢郡に20邑余（およそ10000石）の所領を与えられ、前沢城主となった。
English: Sadatsuna was famous for being skilled at battle and stratagem, and is also said to have been an excellent spearman with a cross headed spear.
Japanese: 定綱自身は戦上手として名高く、調略にも長け、また槍術（十文字槍）にも優れていたという。
English: NAKAHARA no Chikayoshi (1143 - February 1, 1209) was a bunkan gokenin (civil officer vassal) who lived in the late Heian period and early Kamakura period.
Japanese: 中原親能（なかはらのちかよし、康治2年（1143年）-承元2年12月18日(旧暦)（1209年1月25日））は、平安時代末期、鎌倉時代初期の文官御家人。
English: There are two stories about his origin (roots): one is that he was a child of Myobo hakase (teacher of the law in the Ritsuryo system), NAKAHARA no Hirosue and a brother of OE no Hiromoto, and the other is that he was the third son of FUJIWARA no Mitsuyoshi and became an adopted son of NAKAHARA no Hirosue.
Japanese: 出自については、明法博士・中原広季の子で大江広元と兄弟であるとする説と、藤原光能の三男で中原広季の養子になったとする説がある。
English: The latter appears in a family tree of the Otomo family and seems to reflect that Chikayoshi later changed his family name from Nakahara to Fujiwara.
Japanese: 後者は大友系図にあるものだが、親能は後に中原性から藤原性に改性していることの反映と思われる。
English: NAKAHARA no Chikayoshi ran away from the residence of Masayori in December, 1180, four months after MINAMOTO no Yoritomo took up arms in August.
Japanese: 治承4年（1180年）8月に源頼朝が挙兵し、その4か月後の12月に雅頼の家から逃亡する。
English: It was because NAKAHARA no Chikayoshi detected the movement of the Taira family when he pretended to visit and question them by the order of TAIRA no Tokitada who knew of the relationship between the Hatano clan and Yoritomo.
Japanese: 波多野氏と頼朝の関係を知る平時忠の命令で、親能を召し尋問しようとした平家の動向を察知し逃亡したのである。
English: He entered the capital on New Years, 1184 and was active in the negotiation with nobles, administrating everything as a magistrate of Yoritomo.
Japanese: 翌元暦元年（1184年）正月に入京、頼朝代官として万事を奉行し、貴族との交渉に活躍する。
English: NAKAHARA no Chikayoshi had a close relationship with many kuges (court nobles) including Kanezane KUJO who was a friend of Chikayoshi's father, NAKAHARA no Hirosue.
Japanese: 父・中原広季と親交があった九条兼実をはじめとして多くの公家との関係が深かった。
English: People in Kyoto had thought that Chikayoshi was the supreme commander because they didn't know the name of Yoshitsune when he went to the capital for the first time.
Japanese: 義経が初めて上洛した時には京都の人々は義経の名を知らず、親能が総大将だと思っていたという。
English: NAKAHARA no Chikayoshi went to Kamakura as a messenger of Emperor Goshirakawa in order to prompt Yoritomo to go to the capital after the Battle of Ichinotani, and went to the capital as a bugyo (magistrate) of the army for hunting down and killing the Taira family together with Kagetoki KAJIWARA and Sanehira DOI on April 29.
Japanese: 一ノ谷の戦い後に後白河天皇の使として頼朝の上洛を促すため鎌倉に下り、4月29日に梶原景時・土肥実平と共に平家追討軍の奉行として上洛。
English: He went to the capital for the appointment to Kyoto-shugo (military governor of Kyoto) in 1186 and was also appointed to Mandokoro kujibugyo in 1191.
Japanese: 文治2年（1186年）京都守護に任じられ上洛、建久2年（1191年）政所の公事奉行に任じられた。

English: TAKANO no Niigasa (? - January 21, 790) was the birth mother of Emperor Kanmu.
Japanese: 高野新笠（たかののにいがさ、生年不詳-延暦8年12月28日(旧暦)（790年1月21日））は桓武天皇の生母。
English: She became the concubine of Emperor Tenchi's grandson Shirakabe no Okimi (Prince Shirakabe, the future Emperor Konin, 709 - 782) with whom she gave birth to Imperial Princess Noto in 733, Yamabe no Okimi (Prince Yamabe, the future Emperor Kanmu) in 737, and later Imperial Prince Sawara.
Japanese: 天智天皇の孫にあたる白壁王（後の光仁天皇。生没年：709年-782年）の侍妾となり、733年に能登内親王、737年に山部王（後の桓武天皇）、その後早良親王を生んだ。
English: However, Shirakabe no Okimi married Emperor Shomu's daughter Imperial Princess Inoe in 744, and was backed to succeed the imperial throne, becoming Emperor Kojin in 770 at the age of 62 (he reigned from 770 to 781).
Japanese: だが白壁王は744年に聖武天皇皇女・井上内親王を妃とし、770年に擁立されて62歳で光仁天皇（在位：770年-781年）となった。
English: When considering the high status of Inoue and the low status of Niigasa, it was only natural that Imperial Princess Inoe would become empress, and that her son Imperial Prince Osabe would become crown prince.
Japanese: 皇后には井上内親王、皇太子にはその子、他戸親王が立てられたのは、井上の出自の高さと新笠の出自の低さのいずれから見ても至極当然であった。
English: Although it appeared as though Niigasa's children stood no chance of succeeding the imperial throne, Empress Inoe was suddenly dethroned in 722 for plotting to commit treason using a curse.
Japanese: 新笠の生んだ皇子たちに後継の目はないかに見えたが、772年に井上皇后は呪詛による大逆を図ったとして突如皇后を廃された。
English: Empress's child, Imperial Prince Osabe, was also deposed from his status as crown prince before being expelled from the capital, and two years later Imperial Princess Inoe and Imperial Prince Osabe passed away in succession at the place to which they were confined.
Japanese: 皇后が生んだ他戸親王も皇太子を廃されて都から追放され、二年後に井上内親王と他戸親王は幽閉先で相次いで死去した。
English: Niigasa didn't become an empress due to her low social status but her child, Imperial Prince Yamanobe, was installed as the Crown Prince and went on to become Emperor Kanmu (he reigned from 781 to 806).
Japanese: 出自の卑しい新笠自身が皇后になることはなかったが、新笠が生んだ山部親王が立太子し、桓武天皇（在位：781年-806年）となる。
English: However, Imperial Prince Sawara was implicated in the assassination of FUJIWARA no Tanetsugu, and exiled to Awaji but starved himself to death on the way.
Japanese: しかし、早良親王は785年、藤原種継事件に連座して淡路へ流され、その途次に絶食して自ら命を絶った。
English: After she passed away in 789, she was posthumously conferred the court rank of Empress Dowager in 790 and then Grand Empress Dowager in 806.
Japanese: 789年に死去すると790年に皇太后、806年に太皇太后を追贈された。
English: Her father, YAMATO no Ototsugu, was a descendant of clans that had migrated from Kudara (Baekje; an ancient kingdom located in southwest Korea), and his kabane (hereditary title) is assumed to have been YAMATO no Fubito but this is not certain.
Japanese: 父の和乙継は百済系渡来人の子孫で、カバネ（かばね）は和史（やまとのふびと）と推定されているが明らかではない。
English: According to the Empress Dowager, she is the descendant of the sun itself; for her distant Baekje ancestor King Tomo was the child born when the daughter of the Hebo river god felt the light of the sun against her.'
Japanese: 、、、、皇太后曰く、其れ百済の遠祖都慕王は河伯の女日精に感じて生めるところなり、皇太后は即ち其の後なり。」
English: According to Nihonshoki (Chronicles of Japan), Prince Junda of Baekje passed away in 513, and there are scholars who believe that Sunta and Junda were the same person.
Japanese: 日本書紀によれば継体天皇7年（西暦513年）百済太子淳陀死去とあり、純陁と淳陀が同一人物ではないかと考える学者も存在する。
English: However, Korean sources contain no references to an individual who was the son of King Muryeong and could be assumed to be Sunta or Junda.
Japanese: ただし、朝鮮側の資料には武寧王の子として純陁、もしくは淳陀に比定できる人物が存在していない。
English: In addition, there is a discrepancy of more than 200 years between the year in which Prince Junda died and the estimated year in which TAKANO no Niigasa was born (710 - 710).
Japanese: また、淳陀太子の没年と高野新笠の推定生年（710年-720年）には200年以上の開きがある。
English: Even if the Yamato clan were settlers from Baekje, they were not naturalized new arrivals like the descendants of the Baekje royal family, but arrived considerably further back in time.
Japanese: 和氏が百済系渡来人といっても百済王氏のような今来（いまき）の帰化人ではなく、相当な古来である。
English: When the characters used to write Yamato Province (大倭国) was changed to '大和' in 757, the characters in all azana (common names) such as 'YAMATO no Sukune' (大倭宿禰) also changed to 'YAMATO' (大和), and it is highly likely that the name of the Yamato clan was originally written using the characters 倭.
Japanese: なお、天平宝字元年(757)に「大倭国」が「大和｣に改められた際、「大倭宿禰」などの字（あざな）もすべて「大和｣に改められており、もとは倭氏と名乗っていた可能性が極めて高い。
English: The Makino grave of YAMATO no Ototsugu is assumed to be the Bakuya-zuka burial mound in Koryo-cho, Nara Prefecture, but this is a kofun (tumulus) of the Umami burial mounds, which were all constructed in different periods.
Japanese: 和乙継の牧野墓は奈良県広陵町にあるバクヤ塚が推定されているが、これは馬見古墳群に属する「古墳」であって築造年代が異なる。
English: Additionally, the azana 'Takano' is thought to correspond to present-day Takanohara in Nara City.
Japanese: また、「高野」の字（あざな）は、こんにちの奈良市高の原に比定される。
English: In "Manyoshu" (Collection of Ten Thousand Leaves) it was described as a bleak area, and the mausoleum of Empress Koken had recently been built there but it area had no significance as a honganchi (place written in a family register) or a residential area.
Japanese: 『万葉集』では鹿の音もわびしい山野と詠まれ、当時、孝謙天皇の陵がおかれたばかりであって、本貫地・居住地としての実体はまったくない。
English: Nearby were the Haji clan bases of Sugawarafushimi and Akishino in which temples including Sugawara-ji Temple stood.
Japanese: 近傍には土師氏の根拠地である菅原伏見、また秋篠があり、菅原寺などが営まれている。
English: Even considering that Nagaoka-kyo (the ancient capital of Nagaoka) was located in Oe, it is clear that the Haji clan of her mother's side were revered as nobles, which was a marked contrast to the status of her father's side commoners.
Japanese: また長岡京が大枝におかれなどしているところからみても、母方の土師氏一族が貴族として重んじられていったことはあきらかで、百姓であった父方とは好対照を示す。
English: Little is known of what happened to the Yamato clan after their name was revised to TAKANO no Asomi.
Japanese: 高野朝臣と改姓されたのちの和氏一族のその後は、ほとんどわかっていない。
English: The Engishiki myojin taisha (shrine listed in Engishiki (codes and procedures on national rites and prayers)), Hirano-jinja Shrine located in present-day Hiranomiyamoto-cho, Kita Ward, Kyoto City, had a deep connection to TAKANO no Niigasa.
Japanese: 現・京都市北区(京都市)平野宮本町に鎮座する延喜式名神大社平野神社は高野新笠と縁の深い神社である。
English: The four enshrined deities of Hirano-jinja Shrine; Imaki-no-kami, Kudo-no-kami, Fukuraki-no-kami and Hime-no-kami, were transferred to Kyoto due to the transfer of the national capital to Heian-kyo (the ancient capital of Japan in current Kyoto).
Japanese: 平野神社の祭神は今木神、久度神、古開神、比咩神の四座で、平安京遷都によって京都に遷座した。
English: It has been determined that Imakino-Okami of Tamurakokyu during the period of Heijo-kyo (the ancient capital of Japan in current Nara) was enshrined by TAKANO no Niigasa and Imperial Prince Yamanobe.
Japanese: 平城京時代に田村後宮にあった今木大神は高野新笠と山部親王が祭祀していたことが判明している。
English: Moreover, Kudono-kami was regarded as Kamadogami (the god of kitchen stoves), and Kundo-kami was enshrined in the Engishikinaisha (a shrine listed in the Engishiki laws) Kudo-jinja Shrine in modern-day Oji-cho, Kitakatsuragi-gun County, Nara Prefecture.
Japanese: また久度神は竃神とされ、この神を祭るのは現・奈良県北葛城郡王寺町の延喜式内社・久度神社だけである。
English: Because the tomb of YAMATO no Ototsugu is located nearby, it is thought that Kundo-no-kami was enshrined by the Yamato clan which came to Japan from Baekje.
Japanese: その近くには和乙継の墓もあることから、百済系渡来人和氏が祭祀していた神とされる。
English: However because Kundo-no-kami of Hirano-jinja Shrine had been enshrined in the Naizenshi (Imperial Table Office) of Heijo-kyo, it is thought that Kundo-no-kami was transferred from Kudo-jinja Shrine in Oji-cho to Heijo-kyu Palace before being subsequently transferred to Hirano-jinja Shrine.
Japanese: 平野神社の久度神は平城京の内膳司に祭られていたというから、王寺町の久度神社から平城宮に移り、さらに平野神社に移ったと考えられている。
English: As the relationship with Silla became strained during the Nara period, Hachimanshin (God of War) was transferred from Usa to Kyoto and, as demonstrated by the case in which the deity appeared to WAKE no Kiyomaro as an oracle, belief in Hachiman suddenly increased.
Japanese: 奈良時代、新羅との関係が緊張すると、宇佐から八幡神が上京し、和気清麻呂の託宣でも知られるように、にわかにその信仰が高まった。
English: It was thought that Hachimanshin was enshrined by Empress Jingu and Emperor Ojin, and the association of the deity with tales of the subjugation of the three Korean kingdoms meant that it was believed to purify enemies of the Imperial Court and plagues which arrived in Japan that were considered to be caused by 'poisonous air from foreign lands.'
Japanese: 八幡神は神功皇后、応神天皇を祭ったものとされ、三韓平定の説話をともなうことから朝敵や「異境の毒気」とされた渡来の悪疫を払うものと考えられた。
English: It was therefore natural that emperors including Emperor Kanmu who grew up during this period would emphasize the ambiguous lineage of their mother in order to gain control of Silla if they believed that they had the right to conquer the Korean Peninsula.
Japanese: それゆえに朝鮮半島を平定する権利があったと信じられていたならば、この時代に育った桓武天皇らが、新羅調伏のためにあいまいな母方の血筋を強調したのはきわめて当然のことであったといえよう。
English: During the reigns of Empress Koken and Emperor Shotoku, Shirakabe no Okimi feared that he would be assassinated, so he resigned as dainagon (chief councilor of state) and stayed at the Tamura-tei residence in the suburbs where he spent 'wild' days indulging in the sensual pleasures of drink and women.
Japanese: 孝謙・称徳天皇の時代、白壁王は暗殺を恐れ、大納言を致仕し郊外の田邑邸で酒色にふける「陽狂」の日々を送っていた。
English: At that time, it was common for low-ranking ladies-in-waiting to serve persons of noble status, and it is probably true that Niigasa who served as a lady-in-waiting would occasionally catch the eye of Shirakabe no Okimi, attended at his bedside, and received his affection.
Japanese: 当時は采女といって身分の低い女性が高貴な者に奉仕することがふつうだったので、采女である新笠がたまたま白壁王の目に止まり、枕席に侍り情を受けたというのが真相ではあるまいか。
English: Emphasis of the emperor's lineage from naturalized settlers was done in order to overcome the negative image of having deposed and expelled Empress Inoe and her followers, and it is natural to regard the move as a plan formulated by the backers of Emperor Kanmu.
Japanese: 帰化人の血筋の有用性を強調したのは、井上皇后一派を失脚・排斥したイメージを払拭するため、桓武擁立派の企てと見るのが自然だろう。
English: Razan HAYASHI (1583-1657) was the founder of the HAYASHI (or RIN) clan of Neo-Confucianism in the early years of the Edo period.
Japanese: 林羅山（はやしらざん、天正11年（1583年）-明暦3年1月23日(旧暦)（1657年3月7日））は、江戸時代初期の朱子学派儒教、林家(儒者)の祖。
English: He was adopted by his uncle soon after he was born in Kyoto in 1583.
Japanese: 天正11年(1583年)京都において産まれるが、ほどなく伯父へ養子に出される。
English: Reputed to be brilliant from an early age, he entered Kennin-ji Temple in Kyoto to study Buddhism in 1595, but refused to enter the priesthood and returned to his family.
Japanese: 小さい頃から秀才としてうたわれ、文禄4年(1595年)京都建仁寺で仏教を学ぶが、僧籍に入る（出家する）のは拒否し家に戻る。
English: In his private studies he became increasingly absorbed in neo-Confucianism, and met Seika FUJIWARA in 1604.
Japanese: 独学を進めるうちに朱子学に熱中していき慶長9年(1604年)藤原惺窩（ふじわらせいか）に出会う。
English: Razan was greatly influenced both spiritually and academically by his encounter with Seika, and Seika was surprised by Razan's brilliance and introduced Razan to Ieyasu TOKUGAWA in the following year, 1605.
Japanese: 羅山にとって惺窩との出会いは、精神的、学問的に大きく影響を受けることになり、惺窩も羅山の英明さに驚き、翌年の1605年には徳川家康に会わせる。
English: In 1606, he was involved in "chikyu-ronso (controversy over the Earth)" with Irmao Fabian, a Japanese monk who belonged to the Society of Jesus.
Japanese: 1606年にはイエズス会の日本人修道士イルマン・ハビアンと「地球論争」を行っている。
English: Razan HAYASHI refused to accept that the earth was round and revolves around the Sun, advocating instead the theory that the earth was rectangular and sat at the center of the universe.
Japanese: この時林羅山は地動説と地球が球体である事を断固として受け入れず、地球方形説と天動説を主張した。
English: The dispute ended with Razan HAYASHI winning the argument and Fabian would later question and subsequently abandon his faith.
Japanese: この論争は林羅山がハビアンを論破する形で終わり、その後ハビアンは信仰に動揺を来たし、後の棄教につながっていく。
English: In 1607, Razan went to Edo and taught the second shogun, Hidetada TOKUGAWA (the third son of Ieyasu).
Japanese: 1607年には、江戸に赴き2代将軍徳川秀忠（家康の3男）に講書を行った。
English: In 1624, he was appointed teacher of the third shogun Iemitsu TOKUGAWA (the eldest son of Hidetada), and subsequently joined the bakufu (Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun) government.
Japanese: 寛永元年(1624年)3代将軍・徳川家光（秀忠の長男）の侍講になり、以後幕府政治にも関わっていくことになる。
English: He was responsible for drafting Laws for the Military Houses in 1635, and managed the ceremony of visiting Ise-jingu Shrine in 1636.
Japanese: 寛永12年(1635年)武家諸法度の起草にあたり、翌1636年には伊勢神宮参拝典礼にもあたった。
English: Furthermore, in 1632, he was entrusted with a school in Ueno-Shinobugaoka which he named Senseiden.
Japanese: なお寛永9年(1632年)上野忍が岡に、学問所を与えられ先聖殿と称した。
English: Razan played an important role in the foundation of the newly-fledged bakufu, creating various systems and regulations governing matters such as courtesy.
Japanese: 羅山は、初期の幕府の土台作りに大きく関わり様々な制度、儀礼などのルールを定めていった。
English: He removed all subjects other than Confucianism and Shintoism from the syllabus, and contributed to the development of neo-Confucianism and the promotion of Confucianism as the learning of government.
Japanese: 学問上では、儒学・神道以外の全てを排し、朱子学の発展、儒学の官学化に貢献した。
English: The Hayashi (or RIN) family provided the Director of the Bureau of Education from the time of Hoko HAYASHI (grandchild of Razan and the third generation of the family), and would later provide officials for the inherited post responsible for education in the bakufu (they were also entrusted with the management of the Suruga library).
Japanese: なお、大学頭（だいがくのかみ）は、3代林鳳岡（羅山の孫）の時代からであり、以後林家は代々幕府の学問の責任者を担ってゆく（駿河文庫の管理を担う）。
