Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Manual of Education of Koreans (1913) and Manual of Education in Chosen 1920 (1920) through Text Mining

This study investigates the education policies of the Japanese government-general towards Korean women during the 1910s, the early years of the Japanese colonial period, using two English-translated texts: Manual of Education of Koreans (1913) and Manual of Education in Chosen 1920 (1920). Employing text-mining techniques for quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis for interpretation, the research reveals two key findings: (i) There were only two school types for Korean women in the 1910s ― “common school” and “girls' high common school”; (ii) Girls' education was one year shorter, emphasizing “feminine virtues,” “moral character,” and “housekeeper” qualities. This illustrates dual oppression for Korean women under Japanese rule ― as colonized subjects and women.
