Last Monday, we went to grave of “Oryo” who was most Japanese historical hero Ryoma Sakamoto’s wife.
She married other man (his name was Nishimura) after Ryoma was dead.
Despite this, when Oryo was die, Nishimura did curb her grave that “she’s Ryoma’s wife.”
And this picture shows it, though you can’t see it well.
Imagine, you have wife, who is former other guy’s wife, and the former one was very famous man.
One day, the day come when she’s die.
You have to build her grave and you have to write what she was.
Can you write “She was former one’s wife?”
It’s weird but good story for somebody.
月曜日、横須賀にある、おりょうの墓に行きました。
ドラマの影響という訳ではないかもしれないけど
すでに何人か来ていました。
龍馬の死後、おりょうが再婚(?)した西村という方が、おりょうの墓に「龍馬の妻」と書いたというのは
歴史のテレビ等でよく聞く話でしたが
実際に見てみると、ホントに書いてあってビックリしました!
