KODAMA, GENTARO, COUNT (1852-1907)

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 885 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KHA-KRI
KODAMA, GENTARO, COUNT (1852-1907) , Japanese general, was born in Choshu. He studied military science in Germany, and was appointed vice-minister of war in 1892. He became
governor
 -general of Formosa in 1900, holding at the same time the
portfolio
  of war. When the conflict with
Russia
  became imminent in 1903, he gave up his
portfolio
  to become vice-
chief
  of the general staff, a sacrifice which elicited much public applause. Throughout the Russo-Japanese War (19o45)he served as
chief
  of staff to Field
Marshal
  Oyama, and it was well under-stood that his genius guided the
strategy
  of the whole campaign, as that of General Kawakami had done in the war with
China
  ten years previously. General Kodama was raised in rapid succession to the ranks of baron, viscount and
count
 , and his death in 1907 was regarded as a national calamity.
