Outline of Final Research Achievements

About "the elucidation of the view strange for the early modern times period that was the main purpose of the study", I performed the study mainly on 18・19 centuries in particular and announced the result by a presentation at the meeting, an article, a joint work. I studied two directionality of the study mainly on the document of "Shingaku" that was popular after the mid-18th century and the study of the monster which crossed the Middle Ages, the early modern times, the modern times as a main shaft. Because a study progressed, and it was necessary to push forward the study of the neighboring fields than strange novel itself in the early modern times, I pushed forward a study while changing a slightly original plan.
In addition, I performed a ghost story and the fundamental researches about the neighboring fields in the early modern times although I did not come to announce it. I announce the result sequentially after the next fiscal year.
