Kenjiro Yamakawa of Aizu fought in the Boshin War on the losing side. After the war, he studied abroad at Yale University in the early Meiji era, earning a PhD in physics. Later, he served as president of Tokyo Imperial University and led the education world in the Meiji period. Kenjiro’s eldest son Makoto took a wife named Yoshi from the Kajii family of military doctors from Daishouji. According to the “Aizu Zakki” recorded by Yoshi and preserved by her descendants, Kenjiro had informed Yoshi about the history of the Chugoku region and the Aizu clan, the relatives of the Yamakawa family, and his knowledge of waka poetry. The records show that Kenjiro passed on knowledge and education to his eldest son’s wife and expected her to support the Yamakawa family. People of Aizu who moved to Tokyo maintained a sense of belonging to Aizu, which helped discipline themselves even after the modern era. Descendants of Yoshi, too, live in modern society with a sense of pride and identification with their ancestor’s hometown.

I conducted a study on Sakurai Onnajuku, which was headed by female educators Chika Sakurai and Fuki Kuratsuji, who were families to each other. The study revealed how the said cram school was merged with Nihonjoshi Koutougakuin.The year of the merger was "1941". It was confirmed that before the war, the faculty members of Nihonjoshi Koutougakuin valued English education without being tied to the prevalent public opinion of expelling English.As they celebrate their 100th anniversary of establishment, they would like to continue promoting education and research so that women can play an active role in and open up their lives to our globalizing society.

Most recent job satisfaction studies are quantitative rather than qualitative in their methodology. Therefore, this research employs interviews to clearly elucidate the elements of job satisfaction. The sample for this investigation was formed by 16 people who have lived in the metropolitan area in Tokai and Kansai district, and who are currently employed. The results obtained from the analysis of the interviews clarified that job satisfaction can be explained through four elements: evaluation or recognition, personal growth, wages, and life satisfaction. The examination clearly demonstrates that overall job satisfaction is related both to intrinsic and extrinsic motivation under conditions of positive human relationships within an office. The findings also reveal that the sense of job satisfaction is further influenced by an individual’s feeling of fulfillment in personal life, indicating a synergy between job and life satisfaction.
