摘要

James Fujitani是阿祖萨太平洋大学现代语言系副教授。1555年,在抵达日本仅六年后,耶稣会的传教士在伏乃市(现代的Ōita)建立了一家小型医疗诊所。这是整个东亚第一家欧洲医院,历史学家经常将其视为一场科学革命的开始,这场革命最终将导致日本正式采用西方医学,同时将东方技术边缘化。本文寻求另一种视角。它认为,对耶稣会医院的性质存在一些误解。事实上,历史资料表明,它主要由当地的日本基督徒设计、指导和配备人员。正因为如此,它的功能很像一个佛教寺庙疗养院。它的建筑风格相似,病人的治疗方式相似,既接受中医治疗,也接受西方手术。耶稣会医院的主要目标不是引进外来的医疗技术,而是为社区提供适当的社会和精神支持。

The Jesuit Hospital in the Religious Context of Sixteenth-Century Japan
James Fujitani is Associate Professor in the Department of Modern Languages at Azusa Pacific University. In 1555, just six years after arriving in Japan, missionaries from the Society of Jesus founded a small medical clinic in the city of Funai (modern-day Ōita). This was the first European hospital in all of East Asia, and historians have often regarded it as the beginning of a scientific revolution, a revolution which would eventually see the official adoption of Western medicine in Japan along with the marginalization of Eastern techniques. This article seeks an alternative perspective. It argues that there is some misunderstanding as to the nature of the Jesuit hospital. The historical sources in fact indicate that it was largely designed by, directed by, and staffed by the local Japanese Christians. Because of this, it functioned much like a Buddhist temple sanatorium. It had buildings of a similar architectural style, and its patients were treated in a similar way, receiving both Chinese medicine and Western surgery. The primary goal of the Jesuit hospital was not to introduce exotic medical techniques, but rather to offer appropriate social and spiritual support to the community.
