Abstract

In April 1908,Tokyo Metropolitan School of Horticulture was established. This school was the first institution for horticulture education in Japan. Gardening education was officially included in its curriculum for the first time in Japan. Keijiro Ozawa was invited as a teacher of gardening by the second principle of this school,Taketaro Suzuki. His first lecture of gardening at this school began on June 21,1911. We studied the gardening education by Ozawa at this school and found out many unknown documents and works of him. Making use of these findings,we focused on his carrier and works,his lecture,his textbooks used for gardening education,and his basic attitudes towards gardening and gardening education. In this period,he was the only man for the teacher of Japanese garden and gardening with enough carrier and works on gardening. He used three old books on Japanese gardening for the textbooks at this school. These books were Senzaihissyou (Sakuteiki), Sansuinarabininogatanozu and Musouryuukazanseisakunoki that he edited himself. Ozawa believed that Japanese gardening types consisted of just following three,Sansui,Hiraniwa and Karesansui. In June 1911,he also planned campus garden for this school. This garden plan consisted of three Japanese gardening types mentioned above.
