1. MitogakuMitogaku refers to a school of Japanese historical and Shinto studies that arose in the Mito domain, in modern-day Ibaraki prefecture. The school had its genesis in 1657 when Tokugawa Mitsukuni (1628-1700), second head of the Mito domain, commissioned the compilation of the Dai Nihon-shi (History of Great Japan). Among scholars gathered for the project were Asaka Tanpaku (1656-1737), Sassa Munekiyo (1640-1698), Kuriyama Senpō (1671-1706), and Miyake Kanran (1673-1718).
