Abstract

As textbook narratives in which the dissonance between the ''current perspective'' and the ''historical context'' is prominent, this study reviewed the textbook narratives of the Goryeo family system & women and foreign relations in the early Goryeo period. Each of these topics is related to the women''s human rights and the national independence, which are important value at present but at the same time has a different historical context. The current method of history education that deals with the above two themes does not aim to illuminate and understand the historical context of the revealed aspects in history and then look at the results from the present point of view. There is a tendency to see and interpret aspects of history in the context of the present. This not only has a problem in the light of the essence of history studies, but also has a problem in cultivating ‘an attitude that respects a way of life that is different from mine’, which is set as an educational goal of history education as a civic education that has been highlighted recently. It is possible to pursue the values that society needs through history education, whether it is self-identity(national consciousness) or civic consciousness. However, it is thought that this purpose can be more effectively pursued not by listing related aspects with the goal of educating such values themselves, but by otherizing history itself to understand the context and structure of the time.
