A Haiku Poet Hideko Suda (1890-1973) and the Magazine "Kazahana"
Get PDFKazahana （discontinued）, first published in May 1947, was a haiku magazine initially presided over by Teijo Nakamura （1900-1988）. The issuing office was located in the residence of Teijo Nakamura in Daita, and the haiku meetings were held at the 9th branch of the Setagaya ward office near Shimokitazawa Station, hence the journals activities were closely connected to Setagaya.
Hideko Suda was affiliated with Kazahana as a haiku poet in her later years. But in her early days she had contributed to various literary magazines as a minor writer: short novels for girls in Shojogaho, short novels in Seito, and short novels and essays in Shojochi, etc. under the pseudonyms “Miyuki Izawa,” “Yuki Hamano,” and “Hideko Ito.” Focusing on her work for Kazahana, this article looks at her life and describes how she was involved in haiku as a self-sufficient resident of Setagaya ward.departmental bulletin pape
Setagaya and Night-soil
Get PDFThis paper explores the history of night-soil utilization in Setagaya for agricultural production and changes in the ways night-soil was used in the course of urbanization. In Setagaya, located in the west of Tokyo (Edo), vegetables were cultivated with night-soil fermented from human excrement. Farmers sold vegetables and bought fertilizer in the town. This commerce between farmers and urban residents created and maintained an equilibrium among city dwellers, night-soil peddlers and farmers. The farmers in Setagaya also benefited greatly from ample cheap night-soil from the many military facilities located in this area.
In the 1910s, as the population of Tokyo increased, the farmers in the western suburbs could buy night-soil from areas closer at hand than urban Tokyo. This caused difficulties in the disposal of human waste in the west part of the City of Tokyo (Yamanote) and the beginning of the municipalization of the disposal of human waste. This lead gradually away from a system in which farmers paid for human waste, to one in which residents paid the city to dispose of their waste.
After the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923, housing increased in Setagaya, but lots of farmland still existed and collecting human waste was commonly seen until 1936 when most of the disposal work was taken over by the government.departmental bulletin pape
