The Bushido in Meiji, with "Chuko (loyalty and filial piety)" as the apex, established itself and permeated gradually. Finally, it became political propaganda during WWII. How did the Bushido of the Meiji era transform into militarism via the imperial morality of a new epoch? It is doubtable, and should not be neglected. In past studies, although there were discussions of the contents of Meiji Bushido, hardly any of them approached the issue from the perspectives of the integration of Bushido and nationalism, not to mention exploring the transformation of Bushido itself. This study would like to reappraise the subject from the perspectives of Gendaitaikasoron and the Bushido of Ukita Kazutami. The results indicate that Sato's opinion of Ukita's treatise on war was actually a challenge on the reformation of Bushido that centered on "Butoku" (martial virtue) along with the values of Christianity. In fact, Ukita advocated a kind of business-oriented Bushido, with an emphasis on personality and virtue. This kind of Bushido encountered setbacks in the debate. Likewise, Bushido had its route shifted and began to focus on "Butoku (martial virtue)." Indirectly, it became known as the origin of militarism in later times. |
