ABSTRACT

“tyûtôkyôikukokubuntokuhon(中等教育国文読本)” is a Japanese textbook published by the the Japanese Government-General of Korea. Volume 8 contains an introductory text about “The Tale of Genji”. As a result of the investigation, it was found that this sentence was excerpted from the “kokubungakurekidaisen(国文学歴代選)” written by Haga Yaichi . By the way, when comparing the relevant parts of “tyûtôkyôikukoku buntokuhon” and “kokubungakurekidaisen”, it was found that there are many omissions. “kokubungakurekidaisen” defined Japan's Heian period as an era when “Vanity” prevailed, and “The tale of Genji” was highly regarded as a work that portrayed the Heian period as it was. However, “tyûtôkyôikukokubuntokuhon” omitted all negative evaluations regarding the Heian period and emphasized that the real society was copied as it was. By such omission, Haga Yaichi's negative appraisal about the Heian period was completely concealed in “tyûtôkyôikukokubuntokuhon”. The textbook published by the Japanese Government-General of Korea, “tyûtôkyôikukokubuntokuhon”, conceals negative evaluations of Japan's Heian period by editing and emphasizes only the excellence of “Japanese literature”.
