Diversity theory of Mr. 'Shojotei Suisei'? About

[CAM] 16:00 on April 13, 2016

 Diversity theory by correspondent "Shojotei Suisei"? I will read (April 12th), hurry up, and post.

 

 Yes, I remember as if we were with you at the last off party. Unfortunately, this time there was a previous agreement (/archive/author/201511/ as a non-excuse alibi) and I apologized. If I was present, I could have increased the percentage of Kansai people even further (laughs) ...

 

 I grew up in Chuo Ward, Osaka City (former Minami Ward) until I entered university and came to Tokyo. Therefore, the sound of "Tokyo" has a sense of resistance, and there is still a feeling of disgust for the Kanto dialect. I deeply sympathized with Taeko Tomioka's speech in Tokyo about "the suffering in which words cannot be spoken." Twenty-three days ago, it was also pleasant that Shinya Yamanaka told me on a TV program when others told me, "Even if you speak in English, Kansai dialect."

 

 I think there are some types of Kansai people who completely erase traces in words and other things (e.g. Masataka Hemi, I saw his "struggles" on TV programs recently) and some types that do not make such "efforts" at least consciously and consciously, like me.

 

 I didn't want to take the "Chuo-ku, Tokyo" sightseeing test "Nanzo", but it was strange that I took the test for the first time last year and worked as a "tourism association correspondent". I think it is. However, thanks to this, it was a great harvest to be able to learn the history of Chuo-ku, the center of Tokyo, and "Shinsei Edo". Since becoming a correspondent of the Tourism Association, he has been interested in the history of Chuo-ku, Tokyo, especially the former Nihonbashi-ku, through the works of genuine Tokyo people such as Junichirou Tanizaki and Yasaburo Ikeda.

 

As Dr. Suio says, "I'm interested in Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondents, but I'm not from Chuo-ku or living ..." If there are people who are stepping on their feet, please join your friends without that matter. "

 

However, just as internationalization should not mean "statelessness", universalization should not become "Tokyoization" even in Japan (at least culturally). In the first place, as Junichirou Tanizaki said, Tokyo is not the center of Japan (especially cultural) but just the gateway to the Tohoku region.
