Kaoru Nakada

Japanese: 中田薫 - なかだかおる
Kaoru Nakada

A scholar of Japanese legal history. Doctor of Law. Graduated from the Department of Political Science, Faculty of Law, Tokyo Imperial University in 1900 (Meiji 33). Immediately entered graduate school and studied the legal system of the Kamakura period under Professor Miyazaki Michisaburo. His research report, "Research on Manors in the Imperial Period," published in 1906, is considered a classic in Japanese history. He became an associate professor at Tokyo Imperial University in 1902, and a professor in 1911. Japanese legal history, which was established by Dr. Miyazaki, was systematized by the doctor. His research covers various periods and areas of Japanese legal history, but his research on villages and membership in the Edo period and the early Meiji period made a great contribution to elucidating the issue of membership under current law. He also had a deep knowledge of foreign law, especially Chinese law. He became a member of the Imperial Academy in 1925 (Taisho 14), and received the Order of Culture in 1946 (Showa 21).
