日本的造纸历史和日本制浆造纸技术协会对日本造纸产业遗产的保护开发活动

Paper history in Japan and activity of development and reservation of paper industry property by japan TAPPI Kunitaka toyohuku

造纸技术是由僧人昙征于公元610年传到日本的。在日本,这种纸称之为"和纸",直到江户时代末期(公元610～1867年),但其时的生产规模仅限于家庭作坊。日本从国外引进现代造纸技术始于明治时期,在二次大战之前纸产量达到150万t。战败后,日本的造纸产业受到极大的摧毁,产量降到很低。但战后重建使日本的造纸产业如凤凰涅槃,获得再生,并在1996年达到3千万t。仅次于美国而排在世界第二位。近年来,日本的造纸产量排在中国之后,名列第三。仅仅记录和保存历史是没有意义的。这里,我就日本造纸工业协会在日本造纸工业的工业遗产保护和开发中推动的活动做一个报告。

The paper manufacture method was conveyed in our country in 610 by曇徵.The paper of our country developed as'Wasi:和纸'peculiar to Japan(from 610 to 1867) until Edo last years.However,the production system was a level of the household industry. Japan introduced modern paper manufacture in the Meiji era from foreign countries,and the paper volume of production before World WarⅡreached 1,500,000t. The Japanese paper industry was reduced to smithereens by defeat.However,the Japanese paper industry revived like phoenix through postwar revival and produced more than 30,000,000t in 1996.It placed second position in the world next to U.S.A.Present age,Japan is pulled in China,and it is the third place. It has no great significance to only record history and only save history.I report about the industrial inheritance saving / outgoing activity of the Japanese paper industry that our JAPAN TAPPI pushes forward an action.
