in april 1947, ienaga published "new japanese history" (新日本史) as a general history book. upon request from sanseidō, ienaga wrote a draft of a japanese history textbook for high school based on his "new japanese history." the draft was, however, rejected by the ministry of education at the school textbook authorization of 1952. the reasons for rejection included such grounds as the claim that the description of the high treason incident (大逆事件) was not appropriate, and that the draft did not clarify the fact that the russo-japanese war was supported by the japanese people. ienaga reapplied for authorization without any alterations, and the draft somehow passed authorization and was published as a textbook for the school year of 1953, under the same title, "new japanese history".
