Story
・・ときは平安。 背よりながく髪をのばし、絹織物を何重にもかさねて身に纏い、ろくに風呂にも入らず、重みのせいか陽に当たらず運動も足りない生活のせいかよろよろといざり動く女は、こちらを見て言い切る。 「春は、やっぱり暁方よね!」 ——だって空がなんともいえなくイイ!から!! かわいいもの、しょんぼりしてしまうもの、わたしの好きな花、あこがれの上司、今日あったおもしろいこと。 千年を越えてはいても清少納言がかいているのはむずかしいことではありません。現代語訳もいいけれど、彼女の筆致「そのもの」をあじわっていただければと思います。おしゃべりするように聞いてください。

Story
「命がけの実利主義」ともいわれる剣豪・宮本武蔵の兵法。彼は、人生の最末期、熊本にある洞窟内にこもり命を削るようにして『五輪書』を書かれたと言われています。いわば後の世にむけての武蔵の遺言の書ともいえるその一書を、今、まさに脂の乗ってきた朗読家・渡部龍朗が、剣豪と真剣でわたりあう気迫で読みあげました。武蔵を偲ぶ書として。古兵法の世界への指南書として。ビジネス書として。哲学書として。人生をたたかう心得書として。さまざまな読み方(聴き方)を、奥深く堪能してください。・・余談ながら、オリンピックのことを「五輪」と呼ぶのはこの『五輪書』が由来です。方丈記・雪女・武士道・茶の本につづく日本の心を伝える名著「五輪書」お楽しみください。 ことのは出版オーディオブックの情報はhttp://www.kotonoha.co.jpにて

Story
日本の古典芸能の一つ「能」 世阿弥が一子相伝の書として書いた能の真髄を原文のまま読み上げました。その心得は現代にも通じることが多く、ビジネスマンへの指南書として様々な本が出版されています。能の歴史から心得までがまとまった作品です。 「秘すれば花なり。秘せずば花なるべからず」——見せ方の重要性 「稽古は強かれ、情識はなかれと也」——我執の怖さ 「上手は下手の手本、下手は上手の手本」——侮りへの警告 ーーこの文の香りに、言葉のえらびかたに、世阿弥のひととなりも感じていただければと願います。

Story
本書は、そのタイトルからイメージされるような、茶道の歴史・技術を紹介した専門書ではない。本書冒頭において天心はこう述べている。~「日本の住居や慣習、衣服や料理、陶磁器、漆器、絵画、そして文学に至るまで、すべて茶道の影響を受けていないものはない」~本書の真のテーマは「茶」というキーワードを用いて、東洋の思想が、現代日本における文化、道徳、習慣、芸術、建築にどのような影響を及ぼしてきたのかを紐解いていくというものである。全7章から成る本書の構成は、茶の歴史から道教・禅の思想により進化してきた茶の道を中心として、茶室、花道に至る、日本人特有の美的センス、芸術感までを追いかけていく。皆さんが耳にするのは、大いなるアジアの思想に肉付けされ、彩られ、削ぎ落とされたシンプルで朽ちることの無い「心」である。刊行から100年。朽ち果てることのない名作が今、完全現代語新訳で蘇る。

紫のかがやく花と日の光
思ひあはざることわりもなし
時の帝桐壺は、それほど身分の高くない桐壺更衣を寵愛し、二人の間には輝くような美しい皇子が生まれた。しかし、桐壺更衣は他の女たちの嫉妬や嫌がらせを受け、また病気がちであったために三歳の皇子を残して病死してしまう。
その死を嘆き悲しむ帝であったが、亡き桐壺更衣の生き写しのような先帝の皇女藤壺が入内し、帝の寵愛を受けることとなる。そして、帝のもとで育てられてい た皇子は、亡き母によく似ているということで藤壺をことさらに慕うようになった。
その後、元服した皇子は臣下として源の姓を与えられ、左大臣家の娘葵の上と結婚する。彼はその光り輝くような姿の美しさから、いつしか光源氏と呼ばれるようになった。-

<内容紹介>
月日は百代の過客にして
行き交ふ年もまた旅人なり
旅の詩人ともいわれる松尾芭蕉は、四十六歳の春、まだ見ぬ陸奥(みちのく)の地をめざして門弟曾良(そら)と旅に出る。住み慣れた住まいを人に譲り、旅に死す覚悟をも持ちながら、これから足を踏み入れる未知なる世界に、芭蕉の心は高揚する。
かくして江戸・深川から日光、那須野と北上し、白河の関を越え、松島、平泉と奥州の道をゆく。立石寺、出羽三山、象潟(きさがた)などを巡り、北陸に出て越後、金沢を南下し、結びの地・大垣に至る。一五〇日余、約二四〇〇kmの行程であった。その後、何度も推敲が重ねられ「おくのほそ道」は完成する。
名文・名句が散りばめられた芭蕉の最高傑作ともいえる「おくのほそ道」は、今なお人々の心を漂泊の旅へといざなう・・・

Story
今明かされる、知られざる徒然草の真のメッセージとは?
鎌倉時代に描かれた「徒然草」から数多くの処世術が刻まれた154の文章を抜粋・解説。
中世から受け継がれるベストセラーとなる所以を今、学び直してみませんか?
「徒然草」と聞いて、あなたは何を思い浮かべますか?
学校の古文の授業で習ったような覚えがあるけれど、内容はうろ覚え。
日本三大随筆というけれど、過去の遺物で今の世の中にはあまり役に立たない。
上のような考えを持たれている方も、多いかと思います。
しかし、これは非常にもったいないこと。
なぜなら、徒然草は700年の時を経てもなお、今を生きる私たちにとって
とても有益で深淵な処世術、哲学を教えてくれるからです。
徒然草を記した兼好法師は、朝廷の下級官吏として勤めていた人物ですが、
葛藤やストレスを受け、深く悩んだ末に社会から距離を置くことに決めます。
徒然草は、そうして社会から距離を置いた兼好の視点からとりとめもなく綴られた
処世術や社会に対する投げかけが一冊の本となり、中世の日本でベストセラーとなったものです。

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Story
Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

On November 6, 1860, Abraham Lincoln became the fluky victor in a tight race for president. The country was bitterly at odds; Southern extremists were moving ever closer to destroying the Union, with one state after another seceding and Lincoln powerless to stop them. Slavery fueled the conflict, but somehow the passions of North and South came to focus on a lonely federal fortress in Charleston Harbor: Fort Sumter.
