| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims to clarify, from the viewpoint of sports history studies, the context in which the Nagasaki bugyo (the magistrate of Nagasaki) and the foreign governor and consul of Britain negotiated the drafting and building of a racecourse for horse racing in Nagasaki until December 1865. The first British governor, Sir Rutherford Alcock, ordered the building of a racecourse for the purpose of physical exercise and recreation for foreign residents of Nagasaki Settlement. The negotiations between the Nagasaki bugyo and Sir Alcock began in 1863 at least. The Nagasaki bugyo had drawn up illustrated plans and drafts for a 752-ken long racecourse. However, the negotiations were not concluded in an agreement owing to claims including the pendency of candidate areas and expenses incurred by both parties. The negotiations became convoluted after December 1865 and they came to an end in late 1866.
