Outline of Final Research Achievements

The aim of this research is to clarify the actual condition of how Tsunesuke Hashimoto who was a priestess and a ministerial official serving the royal palace conducted research on ancient Japan. For that purpose, I conducted an overall survey of Tsunesuke's old collections called Koukaichin in the Keio University Library that has not been studied so far and created a catalog. Subsequently, we gathered all the information on Tsunesuke as much as possible and comprehended. Through these investigations, I was able to make a major contribution to clarifying the academic situation in the late Edo period.
