Outline of Final Research Achievements

Mori Ogai took on the important duty of director of the Imperial Museum in his later years.In my research into this period, I clarified the academic foundations of his historical reforms. The major museum reforms he enacted can be summarized in the following three points. (1) Introducing the historic-period specific exhibits that are standard today, (2) Encouraging publications (starting publication of academic reports and catalogs), (3) Expanding the number of general researchers, intellectuals allowed to view the treasures of Shosoin.
Although these developments have been discussed in the context of domestic affairs, I show how they were closely related to the world-leading case of Germany's museums. In addition, I expound on how Ogai's reforms augmented the contemporary strengths of Japan.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

近代日本を代表する知識人森鴎外の最晩年は、宮内省図書頭並びに帝室博物館総長としての活動に捧げられたが、その旺盛な取り組みの具体については知られていないところが多い。本研究は、今日世界的に標準なものとなっている博物館・美術館における時代別の展示が、いち早く鴎外の主導によってなされた経緯を、当時の国際的な状況との関りにおいて明らかにしたものである。歴史に残る行政改革の条件を具体的に明らかにした点に一定の意義があるものと考える。
