Abstract

Yoshida Naoya (1931-2008) created epoch-making broadcast programs representing NHK in the latter half of the 20th century such as Taikoki (The Life of Toyotomi Hideyoshi) for the Taiga Drama (Annual Historical Drama) and Mirai e no isan (Legacy for the Future) documentary series. A great number of materials related to his works that had been kept at home and other places were endowed to the NHK Broadcasting Culture Research Institute by his family. The documents include program scripts, proposals, photos taken in the process of production, studio set plans, and musical scores for tunes used in his programs; several thousands of such pieces are stored in 54 boxes. To utilize the materials for future studies, the authors categorized them into five groups according to the characteristics of productions by age: (1) radio programs in the 1950s, (2) early TV documentaries, (3) pilot and experimental programs when he belonged to the department of pilot programs, (4) Taiga Dramas and Ginga terebi shosetsu (night-time TV drama serials), and (5) large-scale programs such as NHK Tokushu (later named NHK Special). The paper discusses how to make a good use of the materials for future studies and how to compile and archive them.
