근대 일본의 한국사관과 역사왜곡

Abstract

Modern Japan published history to secure its national legitimacy, and studied Chosun history and published a separate volume of Chosun history as its part. “Historical view-Kuksaan(a history book)” described as if Japanese god became the king of Shilla(an ancient Korean kingdom) and the Japanese Empress, Jingukogo conquested Samhan(3 kingdoms located in southern and central parts of Korea), and beautified Hideyoshi’s invasion of Chosun. The book, based on national historical perception, became the original text to make History textbook and fixed the theory that Japan and Korea had the same ancestor(Ilseondongjo theory), and had lots of influence on Japanese people to consider Korea as the target to be controlled and dominated. Hayashi, Nishimura, and Kubo who studied Chinese literature at Tokyo Imperial University and graduated from it, wrote Chosun history based on the Ilseondongjo theory and under the influence of the professors of Tokyo Imperial University, “Japanese history - Nihoshoki” and “Ancient Japanese history - Kojiki” Such trend appears in the writings of Japanese people who lived in Korea after the end of the Korean Empire. Among them, “The Kingdom of Chosun” and “Korean enlightenment history” emphasized the establishment of the ancient Korean kingdom by Sosano, the establishment of the kingdom of Shilla and Imnailbonboo by Japanese people, Koryo suffered from external aggression and colonial mentality and heteronomy of Chosun Dynasty. As they described that the kingdom of Shilla and the kingdom of Baekje were ruled by Japan, they justified the Japanese colonial rule of Chosun, and they descibed that Izumo people of Japan occupied the Korean peninsula and Liaodong peninsula and the course of their domination. Thus, the history books published during the Meiji period include in common Ilseondongjo theory based on “Japanese history-Nihoshoki” and “Ancient Japanese history-Kojiki”. Emphasizing close relations of two countries like brother relationship from the legendary age, Ilseondongjo theory embellished Japanese colonial rule of Korea under the name of protection, not invasion, and made up a distorted shape of Korean history to return Japan’s annexation of Korea to ancient times.
