摘要
在考察朝鲜总督府观测所的建立、发展及其主要工作的基础上,通过对该所主要创始人和田雄治以及《朝鲜古代观测记录调查报告》的另一位作者关口鲤吉的生平及其研究成果进行整理,探讨了《朝鲜古代观测记录调查报告》的主要内容及其中三个重要研究方向的得失优劣。和田雄治与关口鲤吉分别在气象和天文领域,利用李氏朝鲜的古代记录研究了半岛气候变化和彗星运动规律。和田还编绘、分析了汉城140年间雨量和雨日变化图表,并通过对测雨器的实物研究解决了《风云记》等在数据来源可靠性方面的问题。关口力图复制和田的研究范式,利用朝鲜的"星变测候单子"验证近代彗星研究。由于这些记录以及气象和天文各自领域的一些特点,限制了二人研究方法的普适性。同时,关口的研究不及和田的可靠、深入。和田雄治与关口鲤吉之后,科技史研究在总督府观测所停滞不前。
This paper studies the establishment,development and main meteorological work of the Office of the Governor-General of Korea.Based on research on the founder,Wada Yuji,and his co-author,Sekiguchi Koiyoshi,of their Report on an Investigation of Korea＇s Ancient Observation Records,this article discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the three main research directions of the Report.Wata Yuji and Sekiguchi Koiyoshi conducted research into meteorology,astronomy and climatic changes of the Korean peninsula by using the historical records of the Choson Dynasty.Wada Yuji compiled and analyzed the rainfall in Seoul from the previous 140 years,and solved the data reliability problem of the Weather Records based on the observation of rain gauges.Sekiguchi tried to replicate the research paradigm of Wada,in order to verify comet sightings from the Astronomical Records.However,the nature of these traditional records prevented their research methods from becoming more generally applicable.Meanwhile,Sekiguchi＇s study was not as reliable and thorough as that of Wada＇s.Research into science and technology history at the Office made no further progress after them.
