| Research Abstract |
Thinking about Japanese medical missionary, you should take into account the social background that Korean farmers were excluded from colonial medicine and had not experienced Western and Eastern medicine. Moreover, the historical characters of medical care of Tenrikyo are as follows.(1) The relation between Tenrikyo and Governor-General of Koreaa can be expressed as "strain and cooperation." (2)The difference between the medical personnels of Tenrikyo and non-Tenrikyo was expressed as the "attitude" toward the forsaken patients. (3)Tenrikyo's medical doctors have much in common with Japanese Kampo doctors in the view of medicine itself and medical missionary.
