Abstract

<p>When was modern literature established as an academic discipline in Japan? When did its standard textbooks start to be written? How were those textbooks used to cultivate the intellectual liberalism of academic elites? In the attempt to answer these questions, by closely reading primary sources this paper will trace the history of modern literary textbooks from the Meiji Period until the prewar Showa Period.</p>
