2018 Ishinomaki a to Z Vol.5
A preface This is the volume 5 of “Ishinomaki A to Z”. We are happy to have this great opportunity to tell you about our city, Ishinomaki. Before the introduction of this book, let’s look back on the previous 4 versions we have issued. Their themes were… Vol 1. “Great East Japan Earthquake” (in 2015) Vol 2. “Attractions in Ishinomaki” (in 2016) Vol 3. “Tradition in Ishinomaki” (in 2017) Vol 4. “To deepen Ishinomaki” (in 2018) We hope you all enjoyed them. And this time, in the Vol 5, we set the theme as “Heroes and Heroines in Ishinomaki.” Our reason for choosing this theme is that there are a lot of people and things that support our lives and give us a lot of power. And we believe every one of them is a “hero” or a “heroine.” The heroes and heroines in this book are just some examples out of countless ones, but we’re sure this book will deepen your understanding of Ishinomaki and make you become more attracted to Ishinomaki. こちらは『Ishinomaki A to Z』の第5弾です。今回も私たちの町についてお伝 えする機会をもてたことを嬉しく思います。 この本についての紹介の前に,これまでの4作品について振り返ってみましょ う。それぞれのテーマは… 第1弾「東日本大震災」 第2弾「石巻の魅力」 第3弾「石巻の伝統」 第4弾「石巻のより深い理解」 でした。 これまでの4作品を楽しんでいただけていれば幸いです。そして今回の第5弾で は,私たちは「石巻の英雄」というテーマを設定しました。このテーマを選んだ 理由は,私たちの生活を支え,また私たちにたくさんの力を与えてくれる人々, ものが石巻には多く存在しているからです。そして,私たちは,それらのひとり ひとり,ひとつひとつが「英雄」だと考えています。この本に紹介しているのは, 数ある中のほんの一例に過ぎませんが,私たちはこの本が石巻への理解をより深 め,また石巻の魅力を感じてもらえるものと確信しています。 Akai Ibuki Daiko and Students Do you know Akai Ibuki Daiko?
