Abstract:
:Sunao Tawara, who was born in 1873 and died in 1952, is considered the father of modern cardiac electrophysiology. He published his monumental monograph describing the atrioventricular conduction axis in 1906. He achieved this task in the face of multiple tribulations as a doctoral student working in a cultural environment that was not his own. Although his letters underscoring the publication of the monograph have been published, little emphasis has been placed on the potential problems he encountered in bringing his task to fruition. For example, it was not until the final 6 months of his studies that he resolved the issue of the connection between the atrioventricular bundle and the so called "Purkinje cardiomyocytes". His exchanges with his mentor, Ludwig Aschoff, emphasized that the difficulties he encountered in making the connection caused him quite some turmoil. We believe that this issue, and others that he identified in his correspondence, are worthy of further attention.
