Long overshadowed by Japan and China, South Korea is a small country that happens to be one of the great national success stories of the postwar period. From a failed state with no democratic tradition, ruined and partitioned by war, and sapped by a half-century of colonial rule, South Korea transformed itself in just 50 years into an economic powerhouse and a democracy that serves as a model for other countries. With no natural resources and a tradition of authoritarian rule, Korea managed to accomplish a second Asian miracle.

Greek to Me is a charming account of Norris’s lifelong love affair with words and her solo adventures in the land of olive trees and ouzo.

And, as Edward amply reveals in this charming book, there is no place from which to see a country that is nearly as good as the saddle of a bicycle.

Motivada por sua profunda ambição espiritual e pelo desejo de se tornar escritor, a travessia se transforma em algo maior do que ele imaginava. Enquanto narra sua jornada mística e as duras lições que aprendeu com o guia Petrus, Paulo entende que o extraordinário não reside em rituais e segredos mágicos, mas na simplicidade e no cotidiano das pessoas comuns.

天照大神、スサノオノミコトとともに「三貴子」の一柱でありながら、神話上の事績が乏しく、祭神とする神社も少ない月の神・月読尊。その数少ない中でも有力な神社が、京都に二つある。一つは京都市西京区の月読神社で、現在は近隣の松尾大社の摂社である。この神社の由来は日本書紀にあり、任那への使者に神託が下りて祀る場所を求めた為、朝廷が現在地付近を奉ったという。その祭祀は壱岐氏によって行われたが、壱岐氏は九州と朝鮮半島の間の対馬海峡に浮かぶ壱岐島を出自とする氏族で、海人であった。そのため、この月読神社には、内陸であるにも関わらず、今も船に関わる神事が伝わる。そして、壱岐島にも月読神社があり、ここから京都に勧請されたものと見られている。今一つは、京都府南部の京田辺市大住（おおすみ）の月読神社である。こちらは南九州のまつろわぬ民・隼人が、朝廷に従属した後、当地に移住して来た際に、彼らの神を移したものとされ、大住という地名も、彼らの故郷である鹿児島の大隅に由来するという。彼らが伝えた隼人舞は、能のルーツの一つともなった。その隼人舞は一時途絶えたが、大隅一宮・鹿児島神宮に伝わる隼人舞を元に復元された。鹿児島神宮周辺は隼人が朝廷と戦った激戦地で、彼らを弔ったという隼人塚もある。なぜか神社に祀られることの少ない、月の神の謎を解く（カバー画像イラストは日本神話と邪馬台国を題材とする小説「ラスト・シャーマン」の著

日本史上唯一、自ら新たなる天皇「新皇」を名乗った、平将門。将門に関係した神社としては、東京・大手町の首塚とともに語られる事が多い神田明神など、死後の怨霊伝承を伝えるものが有名だが、「新皇」としての事績にまつわる神社もある。その一つが、群馬県前橋市の総社神社だ。当社は上野国の総社であり、他国と同じく、国司が国内の神社を巡拝する代わりに、国府の傍らに国内の神を集めて祀ったものである。将門は、常陸、下野、上野の国府を陥し、上野国府で諸国の任官を行うが、その時、一人の巫女が現われ、八幡大菩薩の神託を下す。この神託により、将門は新皇に即位したのである。この巫女や神託には、国府にあった総社が深く関与している可能性が高いと思われる。尚、中世に総社は位置が変わっており、近隣の旧鎮座地には今も宮鍋神社が建っている。ここには、将門が神託を受けた国府政庁の復元図もあり、当時の様子を偲ぶ事が出来る。将門は、茨城県坂東市の岩井に政庁を置いたが、朝廷による討伐軍はここに攻め寄せ、乱は二ヶ月程度で鎮圧された。この将門の本拠地にして終焉の地に建つのが、将門を祀る、その名も国王神社である。戦を逃れていた将門の三女・滝夜叉姫が、父の三十三回忌にあたり、木像を刻んで安置し祠に祀ったのが始まりと言われる。神社は「歴史の活断層」の標柱でもある。
