  • Sangaku--Japanese Mathematics and Art in the 18Th,19Th and 20Th Centuries
    Proceedings of Bridges 2014: Mathematics, Music, Art, Architecture, Culture Sangaku--Japanese Mathematics and Art in the 18th,19th and 20th Centuries Hidetoshi Fukagawa Kani-city, Gifu,509-0235,Japan E-mail:[email protected] Kazunori Horibe Aichi Prefectural Kasugai-Higashi Senior High School Tajimi-city,Gifu,507-0824.Japan E-mail:[email protected] Abstract In the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries ordinary people enjoyed traditional Japanese mathematics all over Japan. They made sangaku, votive wooden tablets with geometry problems, and hung them in many temples and shrines. The problems were presented artistically in color to attract the visitor’s eye. The world of sangaku means both Japanese mathematics and art dedicated to temples and shrines. 1 Sangaku as Sacred Mathematics From the 18th to early 20th centuries, Japanese mathematicians consisting of professionals, amateurs, women and children created sangaku, which are wooden tablets adorned with beautiful geometric problems, presented as works of art. The name literally means mathematical tablet (san = mathematics, gaku = tablet). The creators of these sangaku hung them by the thousands in Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines throughout Japan. For that reason the entire collection of sangaku problems has come to be known as geometry of sacred mathematics [1], [2], [3]. Figure 1 shows a wooden tablet that was created and hung in 1875 under the roof of the Kaizu Tenman shrine located at Shiga prefecture. Figure 1: A wooden tablet under the roof of the Kaizu Tenman shrine. 111 Fukagawa and Horibe 2 Exhibition of sankagu in 2004 at the Nagoya Science Museum Fukagawa supervised the first exhibition of sangaku in 2004 at the Nagoya Science Museum with about one hundred sangaku transported from all over Japan.

Since the 1990s, proposals to construct highways, dams, ports and airports, railways, as well as to redevelop neighborhoods, have been opposed by a wide range of stakeholders.
