Genzui KOISHI was very famous doctor who led the Western studies at Osaka and Kyoto in 18th century. In this paper, we ask the human relations between the Western studies scholars through Shinryo TSUBOI's several letters to the private school kyu-ri-do which was founded by Genzui.
Depends on kyu-ri-do library catalog, we can count only five letters from Shinryo to kyu-ri-do. Formerly Koji MASAHASHI pointed out the deep relation between Takaoka city and Kyoto in the beginning of 18th century, using the valuable historical sources which were left at NAGASAKI and SADO families in Takaoka. Shinryo had received will of Kosai NAGASAKI which played the instructive role in Takaoka and was sent to kyu-ri-do. In this paper, by analyzing Shinryo’s letters, we confirm his thought and activity, and explain the facts of the exchanges between Shinryo and KOISHI families.
First, we picked up the letter dated March 5, 1845 for Genzui from Shinryo. There is an article of Genriku TAKAMINE who was the famous Jokichi TAKAMINE's father as the one of the important person of Western studies in Takaoka. After learning in kyu-ri-do, Genriku returned home to Takaoka. In this letter, Shinryo expressed special thanks to Genzui for Genriku. They found a big significance of going kyu-ri-do and acquiring knowledge. Then, Shinryo evaluated that the prosperities of Western studies in Edo city, but he complained that the clinical condition was not enough actually.
Second, Shinryo referred to the official vaccination place in his letter to Cyuzo KOISHI, Genzui’s son. This correspond to the institution in Edo, therefore we thought that this letter was written in about 1860. He recorded the result of the vaccination experiment. Two vaccines by three were tried and one was sent to Edo, but they didn't succeed, so he carried the rest one to Echizen district. The vaccination which had been divided into Echizen was succeeded, so he wanted Cyuzo to try another experiment at Yu-shin-do, which was the private vaccination place established in Kyoto.
We try to know when the letters above have been written, but we need more and more careful consideration about where Shinryo stayed and wrote them. Shinryo applied a big expectation to the acquisition of vaccine from somewhere near Kyoto. And we emphasize the fact that Cyuzo played an important role in the spread of the vaccination in Kyoto, and his colleagues cooperated with Shinryo very closely.
Originally the exchange between the Western studies scholars had developed by the publications which were mainly the Western medicine notes and translations while making the spread of knowledge. But then, after MONIKKE vaccines having introduced in 1849, the correct technology directly connected with a clinical site began to be desired.
