Shinpei Goto's reception of the European public health thought

本研究的目的是考察日本明治时期后藤信培的公共卫生思想，并将其与欧洲国家的公共卫生思想进行比较。后藤信培(1857-1929)在1883年至1897年间担任卫生官员，现在以国民健康原则(Kokka Eisei Genri，1889年)和卫生机构评论(Eisei SEIDO Ron，1890年)的作者而闻名。我认为他是通过阅读一些关于公共卫生的德国文件而学会了英国卫生学家约翰-西蒙的想法。他对英国的卫生管理和医药都很感兴趣，特别注意到地方政府委员会(LGB，1871)。在这项研究中，我调查了英国和德国的许多记录。在英国，我去了国家档案馆，看了约翰-西蒙(卫生医疗官)和约翰-兰伯特(LGB秘书)写的记录，他们在LGB的建立中发挥了主导作用。在伦敦大学学院图书馆的特别藏书中，我看到了埃德温·查德威克的私人文件，他与建立卫生总委员会(1848年)有关。作为一个整体，我研究了英国中央和地方公共卫生管理部门之间的关系。在德国，我去了柏林国立图书馆，看了路易-帕彭海姆写的记录，他的书中有一本被翻译成日语。

The purpose of this study is to investigate Shinpei-Goto's idea of public health in the Meiji Japan, and to compare it with that of European countries. Shinpei-Goto (1857-1929), who was an officer of health from 1883 to 1897, is now known as an author of a principle of national health (Kokka eisei genri, 1889), and a commentary on the sanitary institutions (Eisei seido ron, 1890). I think he learned the idea of an English sanitarian, John-Simon, through reading some German documents on public health. He was interested in the English sanitary administration as well as the medicine, took notice of the Local Government Board (LGB, 1871) in particular. In this study I investigated many records in UK and Germany. In UK, I went to the National Archives and viewed records written by both John-Simon (medical officer of health) and John-Lambert (secretary of LGB) who played the leading roles in establishing LGB. At the Special Collections of the Library of the University College London, I viewed the private papers of Edwin Chadwick who was concerned with the establishment of the General Board of Health (1848). As a whole, I studied the relation between the central and the local administration of public health in UK. In Germany I went to the State Library of Berlin, and viewed the records written by Louis-Pappenheim one of whose books Goto translated in Japanese.
