(*)(Translated by Hart Larrabee、鈴木博之)(★)([（英文版）小川治兵衛とその時代] 1.Securing the generous support of the politicians and industrialists who propelled Japan´s modernization, Ogawa Jihei VII created many outstanding gardens at the end of the nineteenth and the first few decades of the twentieth century. Expressing a Japanese aesthetic even while incorporating modern techniques, his methodology reveals the nature of modernization as Japan experienced it. With a keen eye for architecture, author Suzuki Hiroyuki takes a long-awaited look at modernization and the modern garden. Awarded the Architectural Institute of Japan´s Annual Prize for Publication in 2014. ´The people who sustained Japanese-style culture from the Meiji through early Showa periods overlap neatly with those who drove Japan´s modernization during that same period. Since those who sustain culture in any given period of time are inevitably those who sustain the state, this may seem utterly unsurprising. The point I wish to make, though, is that the Japanese-style culture they sustained was a modern Japanese culture that functioned as a greatest common denominator, and that Ogawa Jihei was the landscape gardener who stood at its center. [From Chapter 2]´ 2.Suzuki Hiroyuki : Born in Tokyo in 1945, Suzuki completed the doctoral course at the University of Tokyo Graduate School of Engineering in 1974 and was later awarded the Doctor of Engineering degree.
