Abstract

This paper investigates the differentiated educational ideologies projected during the Japanese colonial era by comparing the Japanese language textbooks used by Korean and Japanese primary students at that time. By comparing the texts and images in Kokugotokuhon (Japanese language textbooks for Korean students) and Shougakutokuhon (Japanese language textbooks for Japanese students) with critical discourse analysis (CDA) in analysis of texts and visual image analysis (VIA) for images, this paper verifies the differentiated educational ideologies that Japanese colonial authorities presented to Korean students. There were three findings that were featured in the Japanese language textbooks for Korean students that were absent from the textbooks for Japanese students. Firstly, depictions of physical labour and helping parents after school and late at night were present only in the textbooks for Koreans. Secondly, Japanese nationalism with an Emperor-centred ideology was emphasised in the Japanese language textbooks used by Koreans. Thirdly, the textbooks encouraged Korean students to practise war-like games and drills. The results from this study suggest that differentiated education was provided to Korean students during the Japanese colonial era via the contents of the Japanese language textbooks, which projected the colonial ideologies of the Japanese government. Korean students were being educated to become Japanese colonial subjects.

摘要

本文通过比较当时韩国和日本小学生使用的日语教科书来研究日本殖民时代所投射的差异化教育意识形态。通过比较Kokugotokuhon（韩国学生的日语教科书）和Shogakutokuhon的文字和图像（日本学生日语教科书）通过文本分析的批判性话语分析（CDA）和图像的视觉图像分析（VIA），本文验证了日本殖民当局向韩国学生呈现的差异化教育意识形态。韩国学生的日语教科书中有三个发现，而日本学生的教科书却没有。首先，只有在韩国人的教科书中才出现了对放学后和深夜帮助父母的体力劳动和帮助的描述。其次，在韩国人使用的日语教科书中，强调了以天皇为中心的日本民族主义。第三，教科书鼓励韩国学生进行类似战争的游戏和演习。这项研究的结果表明，在日本殖民时代，通过投射日本政府殖民意识形态的日语教科书的内容，为韩国学生提供了差异化教育。韩国学生被教育成为日本殖民者。
