  • Newcastles of the World Newsletter March 2016
    Newcastles News March 2016 Sent by email to over 2000 people and organisations in over 50 “ Newcastles” - please share it with your contacts too! MUNICIPALITIES DISCUSS MERGER Two of our Newcastles of the World have, coincidentally, become involved in discussions to merge with their neighbouring municipalities. On February 8th the legislative authorities of Neuchâtel and of three nearby Swiss villages, Corcelles- Cormondrèche, Peseux and Valangin, decided in principle to amalgamate. After this first positive step the population of the four municipalities will have to make this decision by referendum on June 5th. The authorities are convinced that this merger would provide many advantages. Confronted by more and more technical, legal and financial challenges, they consider that a wider approach and a common treatment of many issues would allow greater efficiency. The new municipality – still called Neuchâtel – would experiment with a new form of direct democracy with six "citizen's assemblies" (assemblées citoyennes) in the former villages and in several quarters of the present city of Neuchâtel for decisions about very local issues and with the facility to refer and adopt proposals addressed to the municipal legislative. The "new Neuchâtel" would have about 45,000 inhabitants, an increase of 10,000 on current numbers. In Australia, the City Council in Newcastle, New South Wales, has been responding to proposals from the state government to reduce the number of municipalities to achieve efficiencies and savings and to improve service to residents. The Council has stated a preference to stand alone, but if, as expected, mergers are to take place then it will most likely be with the smaller Port Stephens Council to the north, giving a combined population of 230,000.

It is, however, difficult to understand the overall tectonic character of the 24 region due to the thick sediments in this region. We estimated the depth and the structure of 25 the basement top in the Mikawa Bay Region through the analysis of gravity data, compiling 26 publicly available gravity data and our own gravity measurements in the central part of the 27 region. The gravity basement map shows the deepening of the basement top from the 28 Nishi-Mikawa Plain to the Chita Peninsula. Two-dimensional modeling constrains the 29 orientation of the Utsumi and Takahama faults. The fact that the basement top structure 30 related to the Kou Fault is insignificant in the gravity data indicates that the geometry of the 31 Kou Fault is small relative to that of the Utsumi Fault. The basement top structure from the 32 Nishi-Mikawa Plain to the Chita Peninsula reveals a half graben structure bounded by the 33 Utsumi Fault.

  • From Ieyasu to Yoshinao
    2021 Summer Special Exhibition From Ieyasu to Yoshinao The Transition to a Powerful Pre-Modern State July 17 (Sat.) - September 12 (Sun.), 2021 INTRODUCTION Striving through the sengoku (Warring States) period, Tokugawa Ieyasu (1543-1616) finally achieved the unification of the whole country. Yoshinao (1601-1650), the ninth son of Ieyasu, was assigned to govern the Owari domain during the era of peace. The two were father and son, yet they lived in contrasting times. Yoshinao, who inherited a large fortune of assets and texts from Ieyasu, established the foundations of the Owari domain and led Nagoya to prosperity. Focusing on the principles of their rule, passed down from Ieyasu to Yoshinao, this exhibition traces their lives, their administration, and Yoshinao’s feelings towards Ieyasu, as observed in historical documents and inherited objects. Part 1 Tokugawa Ieyasu, Toyotomi Family, and Tokugawa Yoshinao [ Exhibits Number: 1-42 ] Exhibition Rooms at Hosa Library [Section 1] Ieyasu during the Age of the Warring States: the Eve of Yoshinao’s Birth This section deals with the dramatic changes that occurred in the latter part of Ieyasu’s life, spanning the battle of Nagakute in 1584—in which Ieyasu and Nobukatsu (the second son of Nobunaga) fought Hideyoshi after Nobunaga’s death in 1582, Ieyasu’s subsequent vassalage to Hideyoshi, and the battle of Sekigahara in 1600. [Section 2] Yoshinao during the Age of the Warring States After the death of Toyotomi Hideyoshi on the 18th of the 8th month of 1598, Ieyasu increasingly came into conflict with Hideyoshi’s heir, Hideyori, and his vassals of western Japan, led by Ishida Mitsunari.

At Okehazama, Oda Nobunaga (Masaki Ryu) of Owari, rumored to be a fool, spectacularly defeated Imagawa Yoshimoto of Mikawa as he was leading a much larger host than Nobunaga's toward the capital city, Miyako (modern‒day Kyoto). Nobunaga has decided to take Yoshimoto's place and lead his own forces to Miyako, so he is compelled to ally with the Azai clan in order to suppress Mino, a province lying between Owari and Miyako, by having his younger sister Oichi (Mitsuki Umino) wed Nagamasa, the Azai clan's successor. However, Mino is also the birthplace of Nobunaga's wife, Kicho (Reika Manaki). Her former retainers and people are in Mino, and Kicho is vehemently opposed to the province's destruction, even if it is now in the hands of an enemy who overthrew her father, Saito Dosan. But Nobunaga, who has embarked upon his path to conquest, holds to his course. Ten years later, Nobunaga has conquered Mino and marched into Miyako. He has become war incarnate and continues to slaughter his enemies, instilling terror in the populace, who call him a king of demons.

    The History of Hamamatsu Castle （浜松城の変遷） Research and Supervision by Hiroshima University Professor Emeritus MIURA Masayuki Illustrations by ITAGAKI Makoto Estimated current location the Castle Town （城下町） Central Area of Hamamatsu Castle and the Castle Town Uunder TOKUGAWA Ieyasu （徳川家康在城期の浜松城中枢部と城下町） In 1570, TOKUGAWA Ieyasu moved his base from Okazaki Castle to Hikuma Castle and began construction to expand the castle, changing its name from Hikuma Castle to Hamamatsu Castle. Due to the expansion, the central area of Hamamatsu Castle was moved to its current location. It can be said that TOKUGAWA Ieyasu built Hamamatsu Castle from scratch due to the large-scale constructions he made, especially around the year 1578. Ieyasu used Hamamatsu Castle as a base until he moved to Sunpu Castle in 1586. Taking advantage of the terrain at the edge of the Mikatahara plateau, Hamamatsu Castle is thought to have stretched out eastwards and westwards. To the north, it stretched out towards the wetlands that were suitable for defense. The scope of Ieyasu’s expansion of Hamamatsu castle covered the castle tower bailey, main bailey, second bailey, Nishi-hajo bailey, Shimizu bailey, Sakuza bailey and the outer fort. Afterwards, Hamamatsu Castle that was built by Ieyasu went through renovations under the TOYOTOMI family retainer, HORIO Yoshiharu, who was the new castle lord. Large areas of the castle were buried underground but the size and positions of the baileys remained the same. During Ieyasu’s time, the stone walls or castle tower were not yet built. Instead, the bailey was enclosed by earthen walls and contained wooden houses with wooden shingle roofs.
