@article{oai:glim-re.repo.nii.ac.jp:00004553, author = {山本, 昭夫 and Yamamoto, Akio}, issue = {16}, journal = {学習院高等科紀要}, month = {Oct}, note = {This essay is about three stories connecting Hawai’i and Gakushuin. In chronological order, the first story is about two boys from the kingdom of Hawai’i who had studied at Gakushuin for two years in 1882. Their mission was to learn Japanese language and culture for the government’s immigration plan, Kan-yaku Imin, or government-contracted Japanese immigrants to Hawai’i for labor. The second story is the Gakushuin Hawai’i Summer Seminar, which started in 1974. About 500 Gakushuin students in total visited Hawai’i for study for two or three weeks in summer for fourteen years. The third story is SGLI at Punahou School in Hawai’i. Since the participation of SGLI from Gakushuin Girls’ Senior High School in 2011 and from Gakushuin Boys’ Senior High School in 2012, Gakushuin has established a friendly relationship with Punahou School. The first story and the third story are connected thanks to the family of Nainoa Thompson, a Hawai’ian navigator reaching Yokohama Bay from Honolulu through Micronesia after a five months long journey of Hokule’a Voyage in 2007. He is one of the most notable graduates of Punahou School and a great-grandson of Isaac Harbottle, one of the two boys who came to Gakushuin to study for two years more than 130 years ago.}, pages = {1--20}, title = {Bridges across the Pacific : Three stories of Hawai'i and Gakushuin}, year = {2018}, yomi = {ヤマモト, アキオ} }
