Fundamental Studies on Social=Spatial Structure of Japanese Traditional Cities

在本研究项目中，选取了几种类型的日本传统城市，以澄清和展示它们自己的历史特征。在这些类型中，我们从日本历史、考古学和建筑史的一般观点出发，特别关注了Jokamachi(城堡城)，组建了跨学科的研究小组。我们还试图将日本传统城市重新定位在东亚背景下，与中国和韩国的传统城市进行比较。经过四年的研究，取得的成果如下。组织了“宗教与城市”、“东条市资料库”、“佐马町资料库”、“江户时代早期京都市镇文献”及“江户旧地图及绘图”五个小组进行研究，以搜集可供分析的基本史料。收集的材料和数据都保存在成员的实验室里，2.We…科技部举办了一系列公开研讨会，介绍并讨论了代表我们每年秋季研究活动的主要主题：“宗教与城市(1997年)”、“首都城市的特征(1998年)”、“城市社会的衔接构成(1999年)”和“东亚传统城市(2000年)”。在最后的研讨会上，我们邀请了五名外国研究人员(来自中国和韩国)和两名日本研究人员组成了国际跨学科会议。分发了会议记录(题为“东亚传统城市(P203)”)，并附有两种语文的译文。在2001.4-1999年期间，我们已经将一系列的研究成果报告为《山川书盘沙》(Yamakawa Shuppanash1998-2000年)《城市史年鉴第6-8期》，其内容主要基于每年一度的专题讨论会，最终结果将发表在1998年10月的《城市史年鉴第9期》上。1998年我们访问了首尔，1999年访问了北京和天津，将日本的传统城市与东亚的传统城市进行了比较。我们还与韩国的研究人员和中国进行了很好的研究交流，这些国际交流和合作使我们在2000年10月举行了最后一次研讨会。较少

In this research project, several types of Japanese traditional cities have been taken up in order to clarify and present their own historical character. Among these types, we especially focused on Jokamachi (castle town) from the general viewpoint of Japanese history, archeology and architectural history, organizing the interdisciplinary research group. We also tried to be re-positioning Japanese traditional cities in East Asian context compared with Chinese and Korean traditional cities. The fruits produced by our four-year study are as follows.1. Five sub-groups were organized to go ahead the research as "religion and city", "the database of Tojo (Japanese ancient empire city)", "the database of Jokamachi", "the township documents of Kyoto in the early Edo era" and "the old maps and drawings of Edo" for the purpose of collecting the basic historical materials that are expected to serve for the analysis. The collected materials and data are all kept in the members' laboratories,2. We … More held a series of open symposiums where we presented and discussed principal topics representing our research activities in every autumn : "religion and city (1997)", "the characteristics of capital cities (1998)", the articulated composition of city society (1999)" and "traditional city in East Asia (2000)", In the final symposium, we invited five foreign researchers (from China and Korea) and two Japanese researchers to make up international and interdisciplinary meeting. The proceedings of the meeting (titled "The traditional city in East Asia (p203)" was issued with the translation into each language.3. We have already reported the achievements of a series of the research as "The Urban History Annual No.6-8"(Yamakawa Shuppansha, 1998-2000) in 1997-1999, whose contents are mainly based on each annual symposium, and the final result is going to be published in " The Urban History Annual No.9" in October 2001.4. We visited Seoul in 1998, Beijing and Tianjin in 1999 to make the comparison of traditional cities in Japan with those in East Asia. We also had a good exchange of the studies with the researchers in Korea and China, These international exchange and the collaborations led us to the final symposium in October 2000. Less
