AB - Established in January 1908 by Kurakichi Shiratori, the Research Department for Historical Geography of Manchuria and Joseon published an academic journal Historical Geography of Manchuria in 1913. This paper has analyzed the depiction of Han Chinese Commanderies (Hansagun) in Historical Geography of Manchuria and has examined how the histories of Manchuria and Joseon during the formative years and the colonial view of the history of two nations had been applied to actual situations. The colonialview of the histories of Manchuria and Joseon had otherized the histories of Manchuria and Joseon and attempted to reorganize them from the perspective of the history of Japan as the axis. It was noticed that Historical Geography of Manchuria attempted to portray the space of Manchuria as a form of concentric circles under the influence of China. Besides, it interpreted the history of Manchuria by dividing it into two states: “Gojoseon” in the northern area of the Korean peninsula that had been deeply influenced by China and “Yemaek” in the northwestern area of Gojoseon where such influence was indirectly exercised. According to the journal, Changhae-gun Commandery, Jinbeon-gun Commandery, and Hyeondo-gun commandery were located in regular sequence in the basin of the Yalu River where Goguryeo was founded. As the Japanese view of the histories of Manchuria and Joseonoriginally was formulated in order to cope with the continental policies ofmodern Japan, Japan attempted to accomplish its practical needs of figuringout the origins of the current territories but did under the name of pursuing“pure academic perspectives.”
