もう再来週には9月なのに秋の気配どころか酷暑とゲリラ豪雨が続くこの頃ですが、みなさまはいかがお過ごしでしょうか。
さて、2001年創立の「東京多色文化の会」(通称ポリカル)ですが、自らの文化的多様性を高めつつ、年齢、言語、性別、職業、階層を超えて「異なるもの」と成長する多色文化を目指し24年間継続しています。世界の分断が進行する今ほど、ポリカル的理念が必要とされていると思われます。
混迷が深まる世界と日本の状況ですが、次回のポリカルチャーのレクチャーイベントは「古代史ハンター/コトダマミュージックプロデューサー」として大活躍の坂井洋一さんをゲストに、日本という国の起源とその成り立ちをテーマに開催します。
いま「ジャパンファースト」等のスローガンに代表されるポピュリズム的言説が拡声される傾向にありますが、果たして日本という国と我々の心の中に潜む「愛国心」を形成する原風景のようなものはどうやって作られてきたのでしょうか。その起源はどこにあり、どんな裏付けがあるのかなど、古代史ハンターの坂井先生の知見を借りつつ一緒に考えたいと思います。日本と日本を取り巻く世界視点で日本の起源と将来に思いを馳せてみましょう。初参加の方も大歓迎です。皆さんとの出会いを楽しみにしてます。

(坂井さんについて)
坂井君とは慶大経済学部の同期で、同じ音楽サークル(慶應同期の竹内まりやも在籍)だったという深い縁。彼の映画&音楽時代、そして様々な時期にもつかず離れずの関係で、彼の人生の裏表を垣間見てきた。その多彩で多才で豊かな姿に今も変わらず敬意を抱く。彼の一番凄いところは、飽くなき探求心と好奇心。そして弱者へのまなざしだ。
学生時代より知識の深さとコミュニケーション力は卓越していたが、古稀を過ぎた今も以前に増して大活躍の坂井君。今回は古代史ハンターとしてとっておきの秘話を拝聴出来ると思います。
彼のレクチャーを起点に、人間の「来し方行く末」ついて大いに語りあいましょう!常連だけでなく、ポリカル初参加の方も大歓迎ですので、奮ってご参加ください!お会いするのを楽しみにしてます。

Dear Everyone
* English to follow far below (sorry)
It is already September, but far from any hint of autumn, we are experiencing scorching heat and torrential rains. How are you all doing?
Founded in 2001, the "Club Polyculture Tokyo" (commonly known as "Polical") has been working for 24 years, aiming to foster a polycultural (muti-coloured) society that transcends age, language, gender, occupation, and class while enhancing one's own inner cultural diversity. As the world becomes increasingly divided, we believe that the ideology of "Polyculture" is more needed than ever.
Amid the deepening chaos in the world and Japan, our next lecture dinner event will feature Mr. Yoichi Sakai, a highly successful "ancient history hunter" & "Kotodama" music producer, who will lecture on the origins and formation of Japan as a nation.
Today, populist discourse, exemplified by slogans like "Japan First," seems gaining traction and attention, but I would like to ask ourselves the following: how did the primordial landscape that shapes Japan and the patriotism that lies deep within us emerge? Where does this origin lie, and what evidence does it have ?
We would like to explore these questions together, drawing on the insights of Yoichi Sakai, a professional ancient "history hunter". Let's reflect on Japan's origins and future from a global historical perspective, reflecting on Japan and its surroundings on the global scale.
Not only old faces but first-time participants are most welcome. We truly look forward to meeting you all.

(Yoshi Amano's comment on Yoichi Sakai)
Yoichi and I were classmates at Keio University's Faculty of Economics, and we were also once in the same music club, The Real McCoys, (our alumnus in the same year and famous female singer, Mariya Takeuchi belonged to the same club). We shared a strong bond.
We were close friends through his film and music years and various other periods. So, in many ways, I have seen various sides of his life. I continue to respect his diverse, talented, and rich personality. His most impressive qualities are his insatiable inquisitiveness and curiosity, as well as his compassion for the disadvantaged people.
Yoichi's profound knowledge and communication skills have been outstanding since his student days, and now that he is over 70, he is almost nearer the perfect state. This time, I am certain you will hear some special hidden stories from his ancient history savvy. Let's have a great discussion about our past and future as humans!
Regulars and first-time attendees are all welcome, so please come along! We look forward to welcoming you all.
