ジョン万次郎の墓

Unfortunately the flowers were not arranged. I think it was used as the store name at an izakaya, but I want you to be alive every day!

In Tosashimizu City, Kochi Prefecture, we are looking for a signature for the Taiga drama "John Manjiro", may it be decided anyway?

John Manjiro January 27, 1827 -1898 November 12, 1827 Japanese who worked in the United States and Japan from the end of the Edo period (the end of the Edo period) to the Meiji era. Born in Tosa (now Kochi prefecture). The name John Manjiro was widely used in 1938 (Showa 13) in the 6th Naoki Prize-winning "John Manjiro Hiryuki" (Mr. Ibushi), and was used before that. Absent. After working hard to conclude the Japan-US Treaty of Peace and Amity, he later worked as an interpreter and teacher.

It was an English teacher in junior high school who taught that John Manjiro translated "Good morning" to "Good morning." That led me to remember that I read Ibushi Masuji's "John's Jiro drifting story." From that Manjiro, Tosashimizu, drifting, secrecy, whaling ship, Sandwich Islands (Hawaii), racism, English, navigation, Gold Rush, Ryukyu (Okinawa), Koryu Kawada, Perry Admiral, Rinrin Maru, Webster Dictionary, Words such as are floating in a related way. Can you say that Manjiro was the only Japanese man who had learned ocean-going navigation techniques that allows him to navigate freely through the ocean, through POWs? I feel that there is a deep love that has been brought up like a child, coming from Captain Whitfield's neighbor love (the fundamental principle of Christian ethics). According to recent news, Japan was reported to withdraw from the International Whaling Commission (IWC). Apart from whether or not that is the case, in the future, it will become impossible to conduct research whaling in the Southern Ocean, and will become commercial whaling only in the exclusive economic zone. In response to such Japan, the anti-whaling countries have stated that "we hope to stop all whaling for the protection of marine ecosystems." Predation of animals is essential for human beings to live, but there is always contradiction with the animal welfare spirit. So, the point of both sides of the line is, roughly speaking, a line that "does not overgrow". However, in a country that does not eat minced meat, it is only natural to make "a single captive don't get captive" just by asserting a protective spirit. Even if demand is low, the difference in this area is why we have decided to withdraw despite the fact that we have a heartwarming international coordination because we have to protect the food culture of the Japanese people. At the time (1841), the United States was the world's largest prisoner of war, and it was the world's largest prisoner of war (January 1941) that the wandering John Manjiro was accidentally rescued by a whaling boat called 700 on the Pacific Ocean. Because they were sailing. The purpose is not for food captives but for commercial captives to get soy sauce from whales. The method is to raise the ax to the deck and dismantle it into butts, discard the meat and bones in the sea as it is, and simmer the subcutaneous fat and brain oil in a cauldron to extract the oil. It is said that about 150 barrels were taken from one. It was also a policy to promote the POW industry that Admiral Perry brought the President's Letter of President Fillmore to urge the Japan-US Peace Treaty. After the oil was discovered in Pennsylvania in 1859, the large POW country switched from soy sauce to oil and the POW industry gradually declined. The end was reached around 1900. Thus, if you look at the history of American whaling, at that time there were no restrictions on whaling to obtain soy sauce, and even after about 80 years it would seem to be an overfishing, but it would become an oil country We are proposing to the world "No POW" as soon as possible, which has a major impact on the IWC. With such a history of their own on the shelf, I would like to say how to call the Japanese food culture that has been engaged in food-whaling since ancient times, so to speak, as a wild country. I am grateful to the same Japanese for helping and raising John Manjiro from drifting, but what was the spirit of the Japan-US Peace Treaty? John Manjiro sleeping in the Zoshigaya cemetery, what do you think of things in this area? We recommend grave visits.
