My thought will appear upon Liberae Filius in the most sophisticated and durable shape
I have launched the Latin language website Liberae Filius. This is my flagship website and for publishing my philosophical thought covering every discipline. Here is the English translation of the preface of the site.
Was du geschlagen, zu Gott wird es dich tragen!
(That for which you strike, to God will it lead you!)— Gustav Mahler, Symphony No. 2
As a Delphic oracle ‘γνῶθι σαυτόν (Know thyself)’ represents, my own self is the medium which shows me the universe. And human beings have the great quality that they can sublimate the shown scenery into idea. Therefore, expressing the idea in some form is the duty only for human beings, and the fruits of expression are nothing but the proof of existence of human beings. All of which this site shows are the panorama and the nature of the universe, and the fundamental truth of everything.
The reason why this website is written in Latin is two following. First, Latin is one of the well-maintained language in grammar and expression. This feature prevents my opinion from being distorted by language deformation and enable me to express my thoughts accurately. In reverse, it can also be expected that limpid Latin language makes my thoughts clearer. Second, Latin is a classical language. This means that this language will not be transformed by modern people and is able to preserve my words for a long period. By these advantages of Latin, my thought will appear upon this site in the most sophisticated and durable shape.
Mental effort requiring intelligence gives us less fruits than burdens. This attempt, however, promises my philosophy based upon the truth will go beyond ages and endure by future generations. So then, let us begin the exploration for the truth.

Special feature coming up on Liberae Filius
Characteristic of Modern Industrial Societies and the Caribbean Policy of the United States
(Graduation Thesis for Faculty of Law, Nagoya University, 2011)
Abstract
Overseas expansion of the United States had been furthered from the Spanish-American War in 1898 and included the whole area of the Caribbean. This article aims revealing mechanism of monopolizing profits by limited parties by revisiting the Caribbean Policy which triggered overseas expansion of the US in the historical context of modern.First, this article instances the process of occuring World War I and points out that expanding states, in which an industry is so developed, will inevitably contend for subject densely-populated regions to grow material for them and to buy their wares. And next, it examines the feature of the US economy in the Guilded Age and probes her effort to put the Caribbean which has a key warterway and a lot of material under her power to keep and accelerate her productivity improved by industrialization. The effort can be discovered on the Monroe Doctorine and the country’s geographical situation. As a conclusion, it is unfolded that contemporary global strategy of the United States is considered to be an extension of the Caribbean Policy and the status of the super power is caused by rapid industrialization and monopolizing regions as limited interests.
