ABSTRACT
This article discusses women’s education in Modern Korea (1876–1945) by focusing on Cho Dong-Sik (趙東植, 1887–1969), the founder of Tongwŏn Girls’ School (Tongwŏnŭisuk, 東媛義塾) in 1908. When this school merged with Tongdŏk Girls’ School (Tongdŏkyŏhakgyo, 同德女學校) in the following year, he took over the latter’s management and devoted himself to women’s education until his death. Cho Dong-Sik devoted his life to women’s education with a firm belief in education and striving to do what he believed to be the best of his capacity. His concept of women’s education reflected the concept of innate gender equality rather than the gendered hierarchal view of Confucianism in the traditional era. His early ideas on women’s education reflected a Confucian notion of ‘Wise Mother, Good Wife’, but they gradually evolved into a more nationalistic version of the idea.

现代韩国的私立女子学校(1876-1945):曹东植、妇女教育和“贤母良妻”观念的转变
摘要
本文讨论了现代韩国(1876-1945)的妇女教育,重点关注 1908 年东媛女子学校(Tongwŏnŭisuk,东媛义塾)的创始人赵东植(赵东植,1887-1969)。次年同德女学校(Tongdŏkyŏhakgyo,同德女学校)接手管理,致力于女子教育直至去世。曹东植怀着对教育的坚定信念,将自己的一生奉献给了女性教育事业,并努力做自己认为最好的事情。他的女子教育观体现的是天生的性别平等观念,而不是传统时代儒家的性别等级观。他早期关于妇女教育的思想反映了儒家“贤母良妻”的观念,但逐渐演变成一种更加民族主义的观念。
