Research Abstract |
The present project, with members from various fields such as archival science, book and manuscript studies, and history, has carried out a comprehensive research of local historical materials focusing on the archival records, books, paintings and writings, buidings, etc., of Yamada Shozaemon Family in former Higashi Ebe Village, Takai District, Shinano Province (now Nakano City, Nagano Prefecture). Growing throughout the Edo period up to the first-rank land owner in Nagano Prefecture and also becoming a member of the House of Peers, Yamada had been known as a reputed family of the place before the War. The project also held lectures on local history twice in Nakano City and finally resulted in 17 articles, including (1) two articles on archival survey and preservation, (2) five on land administration, (3) four on local culture, (4) four on local society, and (5) two others.
