| Research Abstract |
The kokugo (Japanese) textbooks are compiled with the premise that by learning the texts one can get systematized knowledge and the books can cultivate ideal human beings and nationality. Therefore, through analyzing texts and vocabularies in textbooks, we think it is possible to understand the state-aimed Japanese real image. Focused on colonial textbooks, we did some basic work as collecting uncollected-textbooks and making database.
Collecting uncollected-textbooks
We endeavored to collect textbooks at civic library & Educational Policy Research Library in Komagane city, and Taiwan Central Library, focusing on the textbooks compiled by Korean/Taiwan Colonial Government and Inland Government around Meiji Era 20's.
Input of the contents of textbooks
After decided the original textbooks, we furthered the study by research assistance and inputted Korean and inland textbooks, such as Primer by Shimazaki Yusuke and Common Reader by Takahashi Kumatarou.

hed Ordinary Japanese Reader (Zinzyo kokugo dokuhon), which was compiled by Ministry of Education and Science. (Meiji 20-1888).
Apart from such kind of basic work, we also did analysis and examination concerning on the relationship between Colonial/Inland kokugo textbooks and the formation of nationality. Through comparative examination of textbooks and vocabulary analysis, we hope to know the process of formatting National consensus. We specially analyzed 10 representative textbooks of Colonial Taiwan and Inland (Japan).
These are the Research summary above. As one of the members gradually failed to attend our research because of the corporation of the university, it brought some hindrance to us. We also regret that the discussion on the relationship between Modernization and Formation of nationality through textbook analysis is not enough.
At last, I would like to say that we carried all the analysis of the 10 textbooks, the compilation process of Taiwan colonial textbooks and themes concerning about textbook vocabularies, the materials of Ordinary Japanese Reader in our Research Result Report. Less
