[Imperial Rescript on education in Japan]

On October 13, 1890, Yamagata Aritomo, then Prime Minister of Japan, received a document from the Emperor concerning education.

The Minister of Education Akimasa Yoshikawa sent a copy of the document to each school in the empire and instructed the teachers to conduct themselves in the spirit of the document. He also instructed them to read and explain this document in front of their students, if necessary.
