SEELEY (a historian). He also dropped into the Asiatic Society to in-79 At the time there was a regular passenger ship service between New York and Liverpool, England. When Enryō arrived in London by train INOUE Tetsujirō, who had been studying abroad since 1884, was waiting for him. He immediately visited the British Museum and the South Kensington Museum (now the Victoria and Albert Mu-seum). One day he was looking for the entrance to the underground so he could take the train. Unable to find it, he asked a passerby. He couldn’t help but chuckle wryly to himself when he was told “Right here!” For the next three months, he traveled around Scotland and southern England. During this time, he met Sanskrit scholar Max Muller of Oxford University, who first established the study of Bud-dhism and religion in Europe. At Cambridge University, he discussed Eastern philosophy with people such as Edward Byles COWELL (an Indologist), Thomas Francis WADE (a Sinologist), and John Robert quire about the current status of Indian philosophy. In late December he left London for Paris. FUJISHIMA Ryōon, a priest of Nishi Honganji, happened to be in Paris as a foreign student working on his philosophical research. Fujishima translated A Record of Buddhist Practices Sent Home from the Southern Sea by the Chinese monk Yijing into French and introduced Buddhist philosophy to Western scholars. Inoue Enryō took lodgings next to Fujishima and together they discussed the dissemination of philosophy in Japan and plans for the Philosophy Academy after returning to Japan. From Paris he went to Rome and then to Berlin, passing through Vienna. At that time the aforementioned Tetsujirō was studying phi-losophy at the University of Berlin (today’s Humboldt University)
