| Research Abstract |
In order to investigate the process of change in the common people's image of the human body that accompanied the acceptance of modern medicine at the beginning of the Meiji era in Japan, we analyzed a group of cheap prints, titled "Jintai-Mondou"(questions and answers concerning parts of the human body) that were published between 1875 and 1878. These prints were used as textbooks for elementary school students and were written by common people with different social, cultural, and educational backgrounds. We made clear the images of the human body given in the prints published in 1875 and 1876 as well as the change in the human body image from 1876 to 1878.
