Most of them are published from Taisyo period to early Showa period, when the working women population had increased, as well as the variety of occupation had expanded. His suggestion conflicted with these social phenomenon. It is confirmed from his articles that Nitobe argued women should be at home. He believed that women's power is the source of the domestic happiness, which must be a basis of the state. He described women's power as the spirit of self-sacrifice. Showing this spirit means living with God based on his Christianity, he described it "vertical". He said, human being should recognize the Inner Light inherent in individual heart. Women can establish spiritual independence, when she lives with God.}, pages = {241--248}, title = {新渡戸稲造と女性の修養 : 婦人雑誌を中心として}, volume = {8}, year = {2005} }
