For the road, for the people - The lives and interactions of the three Fujino Sensei are deciphered from the genealogy of Ogata Koan's spirit.
Ogata Koan, a Dutch physician* in Osaka at the end of the Edo period, became famous as an excellent doctor and Dutch scholar, and also opened a Dutch school "Tekijuku" and trained many pupils. Fujino Masuhachiro (1822-1882), a native of Shimoban Village, Honjo-go, Sakai County, Echizen Province (present-day Awara City), was one of the pupils who studied under Koan at Tekijuku. After returning to his hometown and becoming active as a village doctor, Masuhachiro wrote many letters to Koan and his family, indicating that he and Koan had a relationship that transcended academics. Like his father, Masuhachiro's son, Fujino Itsukuro (1874-1945), also devoted himself to community health care, and as an educator, he carefully and attentively guided a student from China, Zhou Jiujin (later to become the great Chinese writer Lu Xun). Lu Xun was so moved by this that he continued to respect Genkuro as his lifelong teacher, and his feelings were expressed in his autobiographical memoir [Dr. Fujino]. This work was published in a Chinese language textbook (second grade), and Yan Jiuro is very famous in China. His nephew and grandson of Masuhachiro, Tsunesaburo Fujino (1907-1992), also aspired to a medical career and became a bacteriologist. In 1950, while working at the Research Institute for Microbial Diseases at Osaka University, he succeeded in isolating a new bacterium, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, as the causative agent of a food poisoning incident in southern Osaka Prefecture, and later became the institute's fourth director. In addition, he was actively involved in research on the history of Dutch studies* medicine, and through activities to honor Tekijuku, he developed a close friendship with the writer Ryotaro Shiba.
Although the achievements of the three Fujino professors differ from each other, the spirit of Tekijuku, which was inherited from Koan's ethics and educational spirit, can be found in common among them. Based on the exhibition "Three Fujino Senseis, Their Lives and Interactions: Masuhachiro and Koan, Itsukuro and Lu Xun, Tsunesaburo and Ryotaro" at the Osaka University Museum of Arts and Sciences, the book also includes new findings and materials.
