 note = {On July 10th, 1886 (Meiji 17), Utako Shimoda was appointed as a national public official by the Imperial Household Agency. In the following year, on September 14th, 1885 (Meiji 18), upon the establishment of the Kazoku Girls School, she was assigned to several positions including chief, professor and manager, and then on February 10th, 1886 (Meiji 19), she was appointed as a deputy president and professor of Kazoku Girls School.
　Utako Shimoda had already started her career as an educator at Shimoda School when she then changed her educational field at a private school called Toyo school. It was significant that she changed her educational field to a government school under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Household Agency. When she started her career at Kazoku Girls School, the first thing that she was engaged in was the compilation of a ‘Japanese textbook’ (Imperial Household Agency edition). In December of the same year, she acquired the foreword for the first volume from Tateki Tani, the president of the school; thus, it is assumed that she had already prepared a draft based on a textbook that was already being used as a teaching material. This is extremely symbolic because it clearly shows her strong will and attitude to give lecture to the students using textbooks she compiled on her own accord. It was a great achievement and it also demonstrates the educational beliefs of Utako Shimoda during the early days of girls’ education.
　I previously discussed “No. 6, Sarashina Diary” of her “Japanese textbooks (which consists of ten volumes)” (“Women and culture” Vol. 1). Based on those research results, this paper focuses on “No. 3, Isayohi no Nikki”. “Izayoi Nikki” is a work written by Abutsuni, who was a concubine of Fujiwara no Tameie. Abutsuni was a woman who took control of her own destiny by using her talents and outstanding energy. It is often said that she is the most famous and active women from the Middle Ages. Furthermore, the source of her behavioral power came from her determination to protect her “family” and “children”, which was historically regarded as the ideal way a Japanese woman should act. It is significant that Utako Shimoda picked out this work when compiling textbooks in the early days of girl’s education. Considering the history of the popularity of “Izayoi Nikki” through the Edo period, she attempted to take advantage of the work in the Meiji era, which showed her attempt to discover new things by studying the past. At the end of the book, there are notes which state that the textbook adopted a book which already prevailed; thus, it is also presumed that the main part of the textbook was also written with thorough consideration.
In light of the research history, we might be able to learn about her educational policies if we study how she interpreted the textbook “Izayoi Nikki”, which was widely used for girls’ education, and how she conveyed the essence of it to her students in a new era, and also how she took advantage of the contents for individual students.
　How did she perceive classic works that were inherited over long periods of time in the framework of her era, and how did she understand it and talk about it? This paper aims to clarify her mindset and activities through the compilation of textbooks conducted by Utako Shimoda.},
