Tsuda incident of Zuoyousi Tsuda

1939, Tsuda was also a lecturer in the Faculty of Law of Imperial University of Tokyo, teaching the history of oriental political thought. Is Japanese right-winger Yasuda happy? Mitsui Kaji and others used this as an excuse to publish papers and launched a fierce attack on Tsuda, denouncing Tsuda as "the nihilistic thinker most hated by demon members". With the rapid growth of Japan's right-wing forces, on February 1940, the Japanese government issued an order to ban Tsuda's four books, Records of Ancient Books and Studies on Japanese Calligraphy, Studies on the History of Immortals, Studies on the History of Japan's Pre-generation, and Society and Thought of Japan's Pre-generation, on the grounds that its research content was "disrespectful to the royal family". In the same year, Tsuda was forced to resign as a professor at Waseda University at the request of the Ministry of Education and under the pressure of Waseda University. At the same time, due to the appeal of Tian Kun and others, Tsuda and publisher Iwabo Maoxiong were accused of violating the publishing law. 1942 In May, Tsuda and Yanbo were convicted, Tsuda was sentenced to three months' imprisonment, and Yanbo was sentenced to two months' imprisonment, both of which were suspended. Tsuda refused to accept the above until 1944 expired and was exempted from prosecution. This was the "Tsuda Incident" that caused a sensation in academic circles at that time.
