Nanma Uhô was a prominent ''[[kokugaku]]'' scholar of the [[Bakumatsu]] and [[Meiji period]]s.<br />
<br />
Nanma was born in [[1823]] in the [[jokamachi|castle town]] of [[Aizu-Wakamatsu castle]], and as a child attended the [[han school]] [[Nisshinkan (Aizu)|Nisshinkan]] and distinguished himself as an excellent student. At age 25, at the orders of the domain, he began studying at the [[Shoheizaka gakumonjo|Shôheizaka gakumonjo]]; while in [[Edo]] he also began studying Western studies under [[Sugita Seikei]] and [[Ishii Mitsutaro|Ishii Mitsutarô]], among others.<br />
<br />
In [[1855]], he traveled the [[Kansai]], and investigated local customs to report back to his domain. Then, for six years beginning in [[1862]], he spent time in [[Karafuto]], working towards its annexation or integration. In [[1868]], he returned from Karafuto and became the head of education at the [[Aizu han]] mansion. During the [[Boshin War]], at the orders of his domain, he laid low in [[Osaka]]; returning to Aizu, he found the castle destroyed, and found himself confined in [[Takada han]].<br />
<br />
Following the [[Meiji Restoration]], Nanma became head of education in [[Kyoto prefecture]], then later worked for the [[Dajokan]] and the [[Ministry of Education]], and became a professor at the [[University of Tokyo]] and at normal schools and women's normal schools. Along with [[Nishimura Shigeki]], he helped found the [[Nihon Kodokai|Nihon Kôdôkai]], a moral philosophy group.<br />
<br />
He died on 13 April [[1909]], and is buried at [[Yanaka Cemetery]] in Tokyo.<br />
