漢詩から探る華岡青洲の交友（その2）：青洲の詩友達

Seishu Hanaoka’s Friendships, Explored Through His Chinese Poetry：Part 2―Friends to whom Seishu sent Chinese Poetry

要旨

　華岡青洲青年期の交遊はほとんど知られていない。詩友達と京都にあった医塾の門人帳を調査し，青洲および彼らが医塾に在籍していなかったかを検討した。今回調査した門人帳に青洲の名前はなかった。「吉益家門人録」と「社盟録」には中川修亭と武元景文の名前があった。漢詩から青洲が遊学のため京都に到着したのは1782年の春で，右京に居住していたことが示唆された。

　Seishu Hanaoka, a pioneering Japanese anesthesiologist, trained numerous apprentices throughout his carrier. Although his early friendships significantly influenced both his medical training and his personal development, little is known about these relationships. To explore this aspect of his life, we analyzed the Chinese poems that he wrote and sent to friends. We also investigated whether Seishu and these peers were enrolled in any medical school in Kyoto during that period. Notably, Seishu Hanaoka’s name does not appear in the student lists of any medical institution, including Yoshimasu School. However, Shutei Nakagawa and Keibun Takemoto are listed as students at both the Yoshimasu School and the Shameiroku, i.e., the student registry at Zuio Unagami’s school. Based on references in the Chinese poetry, it appears that Seishu arrived in Kyoto in the spring of 1782 and resided in Ukyo（the west side of Kyoto）.
