ABSTRACT

Classical Chinese is a core element that constitutes us - cultural being, and classical Chinese education is the activity that makes us identify and use the element. In the historical development process of classical Chinese culture, Nations in East-Asia brought East Asian common norms of classical Chinese culture into existence by using classical Chinese and expanded the common norms to their own norms by strengthening and transformation of them for Middle Age. Although the official written language changed over from the classical Chinese to national written languages in each country in East Asia, the spirit and function of classical Chinese has still continued on without ceasing in each national language. So in classical Chinese education there are three things ; education to highlight East Asian common norms in classical Chinese culture, education to highlight each nation’s unique norms in the classical Chinese culture, and education to highlight the spirit and function of classical Chinese that still has continued on in each nation’s national language. Classical Chinese education must be conducted in direction of emphasis on East common norms as well as on each nation’s unique norms for overcoming ultra-nationalism in East Asia.
