明治教科書『本朝文範』の生成 : 近世からの脈略と明治教科書としての創出

抄録

This paper focuses on one of the earliest junior high school textbooks of modern Japan, Honcho Bunpan (1881-82), edited by Chikai Inagaki and Taigen Matsuoka. Through the intensive investigation into the process of creating teaching materials from original work, the style of education that uses Futsu-bun in its initial stage was considered with special regard to what and how pre-modern text was processed. Through discussion, the following two points emerged. First, Honcho Bunpan was based on the pre-modern library and pre-modern commentary. It was edited during the early stages of the Meiji educational system as a textbook that aimed to use Futsu-bun with specific innovations. Second, the meaning of Honcho Bunpan and the history about the modern education of language was described. Particularly, through observations of how the Honcho Bunpan was continuously used and what modifications it underwent over the years, some ideological changes were revealed through the modification and instruction for adopting the original text style into Ima-bun.
