臺灣「日本事情」相關書籍的調查整理

Investigation of Related Books on 「Overviewing Japan」Course

1962年日本文部省曾要求以留學生為對象的課程中除日語外，需同時開授「日本事情」的科目。臺灣各大學日語系甚至通識教育也提供相關課程，然而「日本事情」究竟是指什麼「事情」未有明確規範的具體內涵。本文整理分析臺灣「日本事情」相關書籍，討論「日本事情」的具體內涵，結果得知臺灣所見「日本事情」書籍內容多偏史地文學等文科系內容，在跨領域溝通上有可再拓展的空間。本研究之實證調查結果可為臺灣日語相關教育之參考。 In 1962, the Ministry of Education of Japan asked that all courses for foreign students should also incorporate courses on “Overviewing Japan＂. The Departments of Japanese or those for General Education in Taiwan also offer related courses. However, up to now, the clear definition of “Overviewing Japan＂ has been not available. This study analyzed the lecture books of “Overviewing Japan＂ courses in Taiwan for college education. Results show that the contents of “Overviewing Japan＂ lecture books in Taiwan preferably focused on history, geography and literature. There is still room for content improvement on the multi-disciplinary communication.
