発表概要: Over his 65 year long career, Kanō Jigorō, polymath multilingual educator, founder of Kodokan judo, and first Asian member of the International Olympic Committee interacted with samurai, warriors, business oligarchs, intellectuals, Confucian scholars, Chinese revolutionaries, spies, spy lords, Western dictators, penniless commoners, prime ministers and the sons and daughters of the cream of Japanese society. Kanō shihan was involved in developments as diverse as the development of modern Japanese ethics, the adoption of Romaji, revamping physical education, introducing sports, and provided the successful strategy to capture the 1940 Olympics for Tokyo. This short presentation introduces some of the interpersonal relationships critical to understand the relationships among Japanese politics, sports, martial arts, and concepts of bushidō.
