Research Abstract |
Generally speaking, it has been pointed out that mountain landscapes were selected for national park as a symbol of nation in the prewar period of Japan. However, in the case of the Setonaikai National Park and the Yoshino-Kumano National Park, I confirmed that seashore landscapes areas were also selected for national park in the same period, because these were regarded as a symbol of maritime nation Japan. Moreover, the Daiton National Park in Taiwan, which was mountainous site, had no landscape value as a national symbol but value of the rest place for maintaining body and soul of Japanese during the Japanese colonial period. Thus, the relationships between landscapes and nationalism were various in the selection of the national parks in the prewar period of Japan. Finally, I found that the selection of national park in Japan, especially in the prewar period, tended to pay little attention to nature conservation, but had a close relationship with tourism.
