Why was European history a scandal? (2)
Earlier, we uploaded "Why was European history a scandal?" as our blog post. This was an excerpt (pp.37-42)from
Seki Hirono, "Why Capitalism was Born in Europe -Rethinking the History of the West and Japan-," NTT Publishing, March 2016.
In that quote, Seki Hirono uses the word "scandal". The word is used by the author, Seki Hirono, in that line, not in the sense we usually use in everyday language, such as "gossip," but in a more methodological use or context.
Accordingly, we felt concerned that this misalignment might mislead readers. Therefore, we have decided to upload the original Japanese text and English translation of the "Introduction" (pp. 3-6) of the book, in which Seki Kono himself explains the term "scandal," as an additional article on our blog. Please refer to the following.
