Sanki Tashiro and Dosan Manase are known for their role as founders of the Gosei-ha school in Japan. Observing that Japanese medicine had not been based on a clear theory, they introduced into Japan the satsusho benchi practiced in Chinese medicine during the Jin and Yuan dynasties. The basis of this system was to examine the patient's condition, then determine the treatment accordingly. Dosan Manase in particular employed the satsusho benchi, writing out a new prescription each time treatment was required, without reference to existing prescriptions. In this study, we carried out an investigation into the "Ishin shoden" edited by Dosan Manase, which reveals the process by which Dosan established the new satsusho benchi system of medicine within the framework of traditional Japanese medicine. In the early stages of the process, Dosan prepared prescriptions based on existing iou-tou prescriptions, modifying these by adding or removing medicines. Then, in the middle period, he prepared prescriptions based on toso-tou prescriptions, designed on the basis of the kun shin sa shi or Junchen Zuoshi theory, again modifying these by adding or removing medicines. In the final stage of the process, Dosan ceased this practice of adding or removing medicines from a basic prescription, adopting instead the satsusho benchi system of writing out a new prescription for every treatment. In addition, we consider the reasons why the satsusho benchi system was not employed by Dosan's successors, and discuss the effects of this.

This paper investigates the activities of early Chinese students who were dispatched by the Imperial University of Peking (京師大学堂) to the First High School (第一高等学校) in Japan. It is based on original sources which remain partly unsorted. First, the correspondence between the Late Qing's minister of Education Zhang Baixi (張百煕) and the Imperial University of Peking's Japanese teacher Hattori Unokichi (服部宇之吉) will be analyzed, which reveals details about motives and circumstances of the dispatch project. Secondly, documents preserved at the University of Tokyo show the study life and, in particular, mathematics education offered to the foreign students in the First High School. Thirdly, the contribution of the whole project to the modernization of mathematics, natural science and technology in China will be examined, on the basis of achievements of those students after their return.

The plans for TV broadcasting emerged in Japan when Japan and the US began to negotiate a peace. There were two institutions in Japan that promoted TV broadcasting : NHK, a public radio broadcasting station, and Yomiuri Shinbun, a private daily owned by Shoriki Matsutato. At that time the US was looking for new allies and new ways to block the spread of communism. Then American politicians such as Senator Karl Mundt came to understand that television was a useful tool of psychological warfare against communism. When Hidetoshi Shibata, one of Shoriki's best confidants, found a news report of Mundt's "Vision of America " proposal in the US Senate Congress, he thought that it was a good opportunity for giving a push to a scheme for a new Japanese TV broadcasting. Shibata visited the US in April 1951, met Mundt and others, and asked for their support to Yomiuri's plan. Soon after that Shoriki established Nippon Television Network Corporation (NTV), and invited American TV consultants to Japan. They argued that the Japanese TV system should adopt the American TV standards. In September the Sun Francisco Conference was held for the Treaty of Peace with Japan that led to the termination of the occupation. A report of the US State Department one month after the conference said that Japanese supported the American standards for implementation of the peace treaty and defensive alliance, and by television the Japanese nation would be welded into a democratic ally of the US. With the American standards NHK began its TV broadcasting service in February 1953, and NTV, in August.

The "Russell-Einstein Manifesto" issued in 1955, a year after the Bikini incident, called upon the world for the abolition of nuclear weapons and war. It is well known that a similar assertion was made in a journal article in 1946 by Yoshio Nishina, one of Japanʼs prominent nuclear physicists who officially studied the damage of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This paper shows that there were a wide range of arguments in Japan for the abolition and/or renunciation of war in the immediate aftermath of the atomic bombings. Naruhiko Higashikuni, the first Prime Minister after Japanʼs surrender, suggested the idea of "Peaceful Country Japan [Heiwa kokka Nippon]." Tanzan Ishibashi, an influential journalist and future Prime Minister in the 1950s, witnessed a drastic change in international relations caused by the atomic bomb, calling for Japan to become a "warrior for world peace [Sekai heiwa no senshi]." Kanji Ishihara, a former Army lieutenant general and military philosopher, understood that the emergence of atomic bombs and the pursuit of world peace under the United Nations after World War II as a sign of "world political unity [seijiteki sekai toitsu]" that he had anticipated prior to the war. Realizing that the atomic bomb had changed the way of war, Kijuro Shidehara, Prime Minister after Higashikuni, spoke to Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces Douglas MacArthur of the necessity of abolishing and renouncing war. MacArthur incorporated this idea into his demands concerning Japanʼs constitutional revision. All these individuals foresaw the meaning of Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution in the context of the nuclear age, hoping that Japan would be a pioneer of war abolition and renouncement.

In his letter to Guidobardo Del Monte in 1602, Galileo Galilei claims that he derives the law of conjugate chords, Prop. 36 in Two New Sciences III. M. Yoshinaka, W. L. Wisan and S. Ito suggest that Galileo obtains the law of conjugate chords from the mean proportional theorem just like in Two New Sciences. In this paper it is shown that the law of conjugate chords can be derived from the theorem of De Motu. The historical significance of the laws of chords and conjugate chords is discussed and it is maintained that these laws are the link that joined old Aristotelian to new Newtonian dynamics.

Francis Bacon was a major early modern critic of Aristotelianism. In addressing its matter theory, he mainly attacked the concept of prime matter, which, for many Aristotelians, was deprived of any attribute. He denied this doctrine on the basis of the inseparability of matter from its quantity and power. By examining theological and natural philosophical dimensions of this idea, this paper reveals the close interconnection among various fields of knowledge in Bacon's thought.
