研究実績の概要 |
The 2022 fiscal year was quite productive in terms collecting necessary data in different archives: in Japan and abroad. In August I could collect some data in Tsuruga port museum and Tsuruga city library. I August, I went to Armenian for data collection in the Armenian National Archives. In March I went to the USA (Columba University and Stanford University) for collecting data. In the USA I had a meeting with one of the descendants of an Armenian refugee who passed through Japan in 1919. I obtained a book written by him about the family history. I could explore online archives of the USA Immigration and was able to find new data for the research.I had 4 interviews with 4 descendants of different refugees from the time. I obtained valuable documents for the family archives. I had 3 research presentations, which gave me good opportunities to hear other researchers' opinions, comments and perspectives about the topic.

2: おおむね順調に進展している
理由
For the second fiscal year having collected quite a bit of data is encouraging. I could have collected more, I think, if I could have made a trip to Russia, as a lot of refugee data could be found in the Russian archives. But unfortunately because of the Russo-Ukranian war, going to Russia from Japan seems impossible for now.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
I have already made another research trip to the Diplomatic Archives of Japan in Tokyo, where I found a great number of new data, which I can call a new discovery for me. I am planning to take some time for deciphering the new found diplomatic documents of Taisho era, which will take 2 or 3 months. The I am planning to analyse the data I have collected so far and write a plan for a paper. I would like to plan a trip to Russia, however that depends on the geopolitical situation in the area.

次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
For next fiscal year I am planning use the amount for analysing the data: buying dictionaries to read Taisho Japanese handwriting. I am planning to go to The Diplomatic Archive of Japan again, as I couldn't finish looking at all the files I needed for my data collection. I'd like to look into participating in international conferences about refugee studies. I am planning to look into possibilities finding data in French archives and plan a research trip to France.
