高杉晋作 ― 封建社会をぶっ壊す！明治維新序章【COTEN RADIO #89】

#History #Education #LateEdoWar #TakasugiShinsaku This is history radio, brought to you by Koten, a company that loves history and knows too much about it! Perhaps knowing history can help solve the problems we face every day! This episode's theme is "Takasugi Shinsaku." "27 Years and 8 Months" These are the years Takasugi Shinsaku lived. Just as his real name, "Spring Breeze," suggests, his short life, which ran like the wind, was vivid and exhilarating. The term "Roaring Man of the Late Edo Period" was truly made for him. Without him, the Meiji Restoration might have been delayed by several years, or perhaps the Meiji Restoration itself might have unfolded in a different way. His life left such a profound mark on history, which is why, despite its brevity, his name remains in history. Takasugi Shinsaku was a bold and eccentric genius, but it is less known that he also suffered. While exploding with energy in the face of the turbulent times, he also suffered, worried, and struggled with many things. This time, we'll be talking passionately and fieryly about this man, Takasugi Shinsaku. Everyone loves Bakumatsu Japan!!! Please be sure to tune in. [Key Points] 1. The Bakumatsu period was a time when the collapse of feudalism began worldwide. The Edo Shogunate's control weakened, and its governance over the individual domains became less effective than in the past. 2. The Edo Shogunate was an organization that brought together exceptionally talented people, including its chief councilor, Abe Masahiro. It was aware of Perry's arrival in advance and had prepared some countermeasures. 3. The Edo Shogunate sought to build a cooperative system by gathering opinions from the individual domains, but this ended up opening the way for powerful domains to become involved in politics. ─────────── [References] https://coten.co.jp/services/cotenrad...
