Story
2012年大河ドラマの主人公・平清盛は、貴族による政治体制を壊し、初めて武士による世の中を作った武将として知られています。 保元の乱、平治の乱を巧みに利用して、驚異的なスピードで出世をしていった清盛の人生を軸に、日宋貿易で栄華を誇った平家絶頂期から滅亡までの歴史を解説。開明的な考え方を持ち、新しい時代を切り開いた清盛の「グローカル視点」や「重点主義」、「危機管理の問題」など、作家・童門冬二さん独自の切り口で、現代を生きるためのヒントを探ります。 ※このオーディオブックでは、「人物相関図」をダウンロードできます。詳しい入手方法については、本編の冒頭に説明があります。

【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。

The aftershocks of the December 7, 1941, attack on Pearl Harbor were felt keenly all over America - the war in Europe had hit home. But nowhere was American life more immediately disrupted than on the West Coast, where people lived in certain fear of more Japanese attacks. From that day until the end of the war, a dizzying mix of battle preparedness and rampant paranoia swept the states. Japanese immigrants were herded into internment camps. There was panic on the Pacific coast: The Japanese were coming.

In the midst of the largest banzai attack of the war, US Army Lt. Col. William O'Brien, grievously wounded and out of ammunition, grabbed a sabre from a fallen Japanese soldier and flailed away at a small army of assailants, screaming to his men, "Don't give them a damn inch"! When his body was recovered the next day, 30 dead enemies were piled around him. The Battle of Saipan lasted 25 hellish days in the summer of 1944, and the stakes couldn't have been higher. If Japan lost possession of the island, all hope for victory would be lost.

Among Buddhist traditions, Zen has been remarkably successful in garnering and sustaining interest outside the Buddhist homelands of Asia, and "zen" is now part of the global cultural lexicon. This deeply informed book explores the history of this enduring Japanese tradition - from its beginnings as a form of Buddhist thought and practice imported from China to its reinvention in medieval Japan as a force for religious, political, and cultural change to its role in Japan's embrace of modernity.

Story
The epic World War II story of Australia's 75 Squadron - and the 44 days when these brave and barely-trained pilots fought alone against the Japanese. In March and April 1942, RAAF 75 Squadron bravely defended Port Moresby for 44 days when Australia truly stood alone against the Japanese. This group of raw young recruits scrambled ceaselessly in their Kittyhawk fighters to an extraordinary and heroic battle, the story of which has been left largely untold.
