The Dutch scholar Fuzan Fujibayashi's descendents are the well-known Mitsugu Fujibayashi (of Tanabe-machi, Tsuzuki-gun, Kyoto) and his family. Recently I have discovered Takayoshi Fujibayashi (of Minamioguni-machi, Aso-gun, Kumamoto) and his family line. Takayoshi Fujibayashi has Fuzan's genealogical tree and a two volume membership list of Fuzan's private school. The first volume was written by 104 students (1807-1825). The second volume was written by 73 students (1814-1821). Takayoshi Fujibayashi says that after 1825, the membership list was lost in the "Kinmon no Hen" incident in 1863. Toou Komori was Fuzan's friend. In comparing the membership list of Fuzan's private school with that of Toou Komori we see that the two lists have a few differences. I think that Fuzan was good at the Dutch language, but Toou was skillful in clinical medicine and anatomy. |
