A study of the history of private law in early modern Japan from a viewpoint of civil procedure.

本研究的目的是从民事诉讼的角度证明近代日本私法的发展。为了达到这个目的，我调查了各个图书馆的大量有关德川时代民事诉讼制度和民事案件的手稿，发现了不少关于德川幕府兵政所和大阪町奉行所的民事诉讼和私法的资料。在介绍这些新材料时，我论证了以下内容：（1-1）以《拳风记源》（京都大学所属）为基础的兵政书的建立和发展，（1-2）以《万事上京源禄兵轮》（大阪府中之岛图书馆）为基础的早期兵政书与《鲅方佐田记》之间的关系， 《兵将所·西京大保外卷 37 条》（东京大学所属）等，（2-1）以《大阪押书录》（三井文库图书馆所属）、《大阪押标记》（大阪府中之岛图书馆所属）为基础的大阪町役所民事诉讼制度及私法的发展，（2-2）江户与大阪之间在管辖权和民事诉讼方面的冲突，以“大官一比十海西海西国筋之物和京大阪町人赖异宪圆顶”（九州大学所属）为基础，（3）根据上述材料和其他材料，近代早期日本兵政所和大阪町部行所的私法作为“普通法”的意义。
