密謀 上

Rate this book
三成は、政治の要諦は謀略だと信じているらしかった――。 知将・直江兼続の視点で描く関ケ原の深層。 織田から豊臣へと急旋回し、やがて天下分け目の“関ケ原"へと向かう戦国末期は、いたるところに策略と陥穽が口をあけて待ちかまえていた。謙信以来の精強を誇る東国の雄・上杉で主君景勝を支えるのは、二十代の若さだが、知謀の将として聞える直江兼続。 本書は、兼続の慧眼と彼が擁する草(忍びの者)の暗躍を軸に、戦国の世の盛衰を活写した、興趣尽きない歴史・時代小説である。 【著者の言葉】 歴史小説であるからには、従来動かしがたい歴史的事実とされて来た事柄は尊重しなければならないだろう。また歴史小説は、そういう歴史的事実に作者の想像力が働きかけて成立するわけだろうが、その想像も野放図でいいということにはならないだろう。想像は小説家の領分といっても、ここにおのずから許容範囲というものがあり、大きく逸脱しないのは歴史に対するエチケットというものである。(下巻解説より) 藤沢周平(1927-1997) 山形県生れ。山形師範学校(現在の山形大学)卒。中学の教員、業界紙の記者を経て、1971年「溟い海」でオール讀物新人賞を受
