研究ノート ：荒木貞夫と「国家の興隆と博物館の重要使命」 について
Sadao Araki and “A museum mission for the prosperity of the nation”

後々田寿徳
GOGOTA Hisanori

“A museum mission for the prosperity of the nation” that is assumed to
be a transcript of a radio address on September 18, 1940 by Sadao Araki
(1877-1966).
Araki was a famous military and a politician through the Taisho
and early Showa period. He served as the chairman of the Japanese
Association of Museums from June 1940 until around after the World War
II.
“The museum mission for the prosperity of the nation” was Araki’s
first official act of duty to the public. Araki’s lecture might be based on
a draft by Gentaro Tanahashi (1869-1961), a museologist in the Japanese
Association of Museums.
Araki modified and emphasized this draft for his lecture from his own
perspective on the museum in the following three points;
1. Necessity for knowledge and understanding of science and industry
for the prosperity of the nation
2. Importance of the museum available to the public throughout life as
social education facilities for promotion of science and industry
3. Importance of a museum of different localities
Araki actively engaged in the Japanese Association of Museums after “A
museum mission for the prosperity of the nation”.
