Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, one of the links between the development of the women's rights movement and natural sciences in Germany in the 19th century is clarified by comparing the views of nature, the revolution, the politics, the rights movements of the Buechner family's father, son and daughter.
It is particularly significant that this study found the characteristics of the women's rights movement of Luise in a natural science perspective that looks at society realistically and analytically like her brother Georg and in her realistic strategy like her father Ernst, and revealed she was the only one of the Buechners who was able to fuse natural science and liberal thought in the right movement and to promote that movement in a realistic and strategic way. Although studies about Luise have just begun in Europe, her success is rare in 19th century Germany, and her influence can't be ignored when discussing the German women's rights movement.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

ゲオルク・ビューヒナー研究はドイツではこれまで盛んに行なわれてきたが,その家族についてはそうとは言えない。本研究でこれまでほとんど言及すらされてこなかった父エルンストによる鑑定書の内容について論じ,それをゲオルクのみならず,これもまたこれまであまり言及されてこなかった妹ルイーゼの女権運動とも関連づけて検討したことは一定の意義が認められるだろう。
またその際に,ドイツ最初期の女権運動のひとつであるルイーゼの権利運動を自然科学との関連から考察したことは,今後ドイツの女権運動を歴史的にどのように位置づけるかを考える際のひとつの手がかりとなるだろう。
