Unlike earlier times, in the 1890s more advanced textbooks of chemistry were translated into Japanese. For example, an introductory textbook of chemistry for college students. Introduction to the Study of Chemistry (1886) by Ira Remsen (1846-1927), chemistry professor at John Hopkins University, was translated into Japanese between 1893 and 1894 under the supervision of Kuhara Mitsuru and Shimomura Jun-ichiro. Kuhara studied organic chemistry at Johns Hopkins University under Remsen in the 1880s. This was not a direct translation, but rather the translation of the German version of Remsen s textbook Einleitung in das Studium Chemie) by Karl Seubert (1851-1942) into Japanese.
