The Iwakura Embassy was the first and last state embassy sent for the purpose of seeking a vision for future Japan. In the beginning, it had three aims for visiting the United States and eleven European countries: the first one was to be official visits to deliver imperial letters to the heads of the countries with which Japan had concluded treaties before Meiji Revolution. The second one was to make political efforts to improve the conditions for the reconclusion of the unequal treaties in the near future. The third one was the most realistic: so that the top leaders of the Meiji government could see the realities of advanced Europe (including the United States) and to learn the secret of modernization for Japan. Regarding the second and third aims, there have been a lot of research and thinking. However, the first goal has been taken for granted. Having the audience of a country's president or emperor is a most effective occasion to consider and become familiar with the characteristics of that nation. In this paper, I will study the audience received by the Iwakura Embassy in Imperial Russia as a subject of intercultural communication, and examine how the Japanese emissaries perceived the essense of that ceremony, and what influence was exerted over Japan through them.

本研究の目的は、ロシア近代の社会と文化に関する諸問題を考察する上で欠かすことのできない貴族屋敷(ウサーヂバ)という文化現象を特に近代ロシア文学の成立をめぐる「環境」として捉え、ウサーヂバ文化の意義について明らかにすることにあった。本研究の最終年度にあたる平成27年度には、これまで三カ年の研究成果を全体で11本の論文ならびに翻訳、さらに文献目録としてまとめ、成果報告書(176ページ)として刊行することができた。本研究の成果により、ロシア・ウサーヂバの文化史的意義の大きさが明らかになり、加えて、この現象がさらなる学際的な研究対象となることが確認された。
