| Research Abstract |
Based on the categorization of the linguistic purism by G. Thomas, this study first considered the language policy in the Meiji era implemented by the national language research committee of the ministry of education as the one strongly influenced by the European reformist purism oriented to the imperial nation's language policy before the First World War. Next, this study also equated the language ideology involved in the folklore movement by Yanagita Kunio after Taishou era with the European ethnological purism movement of the newly independent nation-states after the First World War. Further, after the beginning of the Shouwa era, the substantial break-up of the standard language education in school resulted after all in the treatment of regional dialects as symbolic materials in the framework of so-called home-land education. This study came to the conclusion that these changing attitudes on what the national language of Japan should be in the pre-war era mentioned above, eventually made preparations for the advent of common language policy. in post-war era.
