(★)(英文版)(気概と行動の教育者 嘉納治五郎, Translated by Tom Kain)(The founder of judo, KANO Jigoro, is a highly revered figure among practitioners of that art. Little is known, however, about his various other achievements, from how he laid the groundwork for sports in Japanese education to his immense devotion and commitment to bringing the Olympic Games to Japan. ／Born in 1860, Kano showed his intelligence from an early age and studied hard even as a child. After graduating from the prestigious Tokyo Imperial University, he embarked on a teaching career that eventually led him to become the headmaster of the Tokyo Higher Normal School for 23 years. This was just one of the many roles he undertook ; in addition, he was chairman of the Japan Amateur Sports Association and became the first Asian member on the International Olympic Committee. Throughout all these activities, he never stopped developing and promoting his creation, the martial art of judo. ／This comprehensive biography, written by a team of experts and researchers, sheds new light on the many dimensions of the legendary KANO Jigoro. It depicts how he truly lived his life to the fullest by embodying the principles of ´seiryoku zen-yo´ and ´jita kyoei´ --utilizing one´s energy as efficiently as possible and directing one´s efforts to benefit both oneself and society. ◆The Committee for the Commemoration of the 150th Anniversary of the Birth of Jigoro Kano compiled and published this book to give readers an illuminating introduction to KANO Jigoro´s life, achievements, and philosophies.
