> Studies for This Year
This research group was founded in 1990 with the
purpose of translating Chikusei Mimura’s Diary Fushusôdô
Nichireki(Written between the end of Meiji period and the 20’s
of the Shôwa Period)in order to study his other works, and introduce
him to public. Chikusei Mimura (1876-1950) was a master of writing,
seal engraving, classical literature, liberal arts, topography, and
folklore. Being of noble birth, he also had the chance of meeting
many important historical researchers of his time personally. The
Tsubouchi Memorial Theatre Museum holds 145 volumes of his diary (Meiji
43- Shôwa 28). This diary is of great value since it displays
people’s behaviors during these times. We will continue to work
on exhibitions and publications of Chikusei’s diary.
> Research Plans for This Year
1 “Fushusôdô nichireki”
Volume 42 to 49 will be translated and published by the end of this
year.
2 We are planning to publish Volume 38 to Volume 41 in “Engeki
Kenkyu No. 30”.
3 Organize the data of Volume 1 to Volume 41
4 During next year, the translation of the diary from the Meiji through
the Taishô period should be completed and we are planning to
re-edit the diary. In order to re-edit the diary, we will start working
on homogenizing the titles, making an appendix, glossary, index etc.
