| Research Abstract |
This study was a basic investigation of Akazawa Nursery School, the oldest nursery school in Japan, located in Niigata Prefecture. One theory from previous reports that the school was founded in the 23^<rd> year(1890) of the Meiji Era by Mr.Atsutomi Akazawa and his wife Naka as an addition to Niigata Seishu Private School, although no relevant materials are able to specify the date. The present report is made up of sections I-IV, based on data lists and historic materials.
Section I describes the society and lifestyle of the people of Niigata in the Meiji Era, as background for the establishment of Niigata Seishu Private School and the attached Akazawa Nursery School(MIZOGUCHI, Toshimaro).
Section II focuses on the developments leading to the establishment of Akasawa Nursery School, and the state of nursery school care and education at the time(FUKUHARA, Masae), with relevant historic material in a separate volume (FUKUHARA, Masae).
Section III looks at child care at Akazawa Nursery School in early Showa, as well as the lives of the nursery school infants and nursery workers, based on interviews of a nursery worker working at that time(FUKUHARA, Masae).
Section IV examines local newspaper articles on Akazawa Nursery School in the Taisho Period, and compares that school with Kanegahuchi-bouseki Nursery School, which opened at about the same time, as nursery schools in which it was a requisite condition for women to continue working after marriage. Private nurseries in the Hokuriku Region are also considered as a selected modern issue(Takahashi, Keiko).
