Abstract
Starting with our investigation of the telescope settled in the Elementary School Attached to Kyoto Women’s
University (here after Kyojo telescope), we examine the development history of Japanese astronomy during Taisho
and Showa era. For the history of astronomy, studying people behind published papers and works is as important as
studying those papers. In this paper, with the results of the Kyojo telescope investigation, we try to reconstruct the
history of Japanese astronomy from the viewpoint of Kyoto Women’s University and discuss the potential of this
kind of study in multiple perspectives.
Key words: general: history and philosophy of astronomy
