Ryōsai Kenbo: The Educational Ideal of 'Good Wife, Wise Mother' in Modern Japan

Overview: The famous "ry sai kenbo," or good wife, wise mother role of women was not, after all, a traditional Confucian view but a modern construct. In fact, its first appearance in Japan, as Koyama Shizuko points out, was in the latter half of the nineteenth century due principally to the influence of European ideas about women. Girls at the time were proud to fulfill their new role of contributing to not just the family but to the formation of the state. Koyama s discovery has transformed how we see modern women s history in Japan and the similar discoveries that have followed regarding Chinese wise wife, good mother and Korean wise mother, good wife. Previous studies have interpreted "ry sai kenbo" thought, which was widely recognized in nationally-sanctioned educational standards, as a backward, feudal or even reactionary view of women, and therefore peculiar to girls and womens education in prewar Japan. As a result, "ry sai kenbo" thought was seen to be completely distinct from postwar views of women in Japan and Western Europe that have also emphasized the role of women as wives and mothers. Here, however, "ry sai kenbo" thought is examined as a mode of thought inseparable from such issues as the formation of the modern citizen-state and the formation of the modern family. Instead of reducing it to a specific, pre-World War II Japanese ideal of womanhood, Koyama argues that "ry sai kenbo" thought is, in fact, a modern mode of thought related to, and having much in common with, views of the qualities desirable in a woman both in postwar Japanese society, as well as in modern Western nations and beyond.
