Historical magazine - Shigakuzasshi

Japanese: 史学雑誌 - しがくざっし

A monthly specialist magazine on Japan's leading historical research. It was launched in 1889 at the same time as the founding of the Historical Society. As the Historical Society was an academic society based on the Department of History at the University of Tokyo, the magazine has a strong coloration of official academicism. In particular, with the birth of the Department of History at Kyoto University, it became a research journal for University of Tokyo academia, and has contributed to the formation of empirical modern history in Japan. It is currently edited by the Historical Society, which has its headquarters in the Faculty of Letters at the University of Tokyo, and is published by Yamakawa Publishing. [Yamamoto Taketoshi]

日本の代表的な歴史研究の月刊専門誌。1889年に史学会の創立とともに創刊された。史学会は東京大学史学科を基盤とした学会であったため，同誌は官学アカデミズムの色彩が濃い。とくに京都大学史学科の誕生を契機に東大アカデミズムの研究誌となり，日本の実証的な近代歴史学の形成に寄与してきた。現在は東京大学文学部に本部をもつ史学会によって編集され，山川出版社から刊行されている。【山本武利】
