ABSTRACT

The purpose of this paper is to show the linguistic negotiation relationship with the Japanese grammar book, which is found in the systematization of modern Korean grammar. First of all, the part of speech which appeared in the modern Japanese grammar book is explored. Focusing on the name and classification system, this paper explores the process of establishing the contemporary Japanese school grammar. Japanese grammar education has been classified as "colloquialism method" and "literal grammar law" before the full-fledged pronunciation movement of the 1910s emerged since the school system was released in 1872. In addition to this, Hashimoto's grammatical point of view is being sought for an eclectic position of "nationalism" and "Western studies" established by Fumihiko Otsuki in the 1890s. Such a viewpoint has been publicized through Matsushita, Yamada and Tokieda who led contemporary Japanese grammar. This review focuses on Japanese grammar books published from the 19th century to the 20th century, such as the Meiji, Taisho and Showa periods, and observed the flow of part of speech and classification of Japanese. And I explore how this grammar book affected the establishment of Japanese school grammar. As a result, the part-of-speech classification form of Japanese school grammar has appeared since the 1700's, and the original form was presented by Hashimoto while the viewpoints of "體・用" and "言・辭" were compatible. However, it was found that early concepts and forms of Hashimoto's part-of-speech classification system can be already confirmed by Okakura Yoshizaburo's 1891 "New Japanese Bibliography" which is a so-called eclectic grammar book.
