Abstract

The arranger(editor) of the anthology attempts to scripture the work through the selection of the work and criticism. In other words, from the perspective of Canonization, Mao Kun arranged the works of the Tang Song period reflect his values which about classical literature and social background at the time. In particular, the writers of Song Dynasty and Ming Dynasty have many similar parts. Both of them developed philosophical reasons and valued the function of literature. In addition, both periods politically advocated ''politics through literature'' and implemented the Keju(科擧) system to give and promote literature and education considerably. Politics and education are closely related to canonization. As is well known, in literary history, the "唐宋古文運動" was both a literary and social movement. After Mao Kun, each of the eight literal advisors during the Tangsong period was canonized with the concept of "TangSongBadajia(唐宋八大家)" which again linked the negative effects and education of the Keju(科擧) system which for selecting talented person during the Ming dynasty. In this study, the “records of school" was viewed as learning, and examined the perception of learning held by ancient Chinese writers. In any case, learning is not simply an action from the learner''s point of view, but reflects a lot of content and perception. For example, the perception of the space of school, a place where learning takes place, and the educational philosophical meaning and perception of the behavior and ideal pursuit in this space. In the case of the "records of school" it can be seen as a record of a building called a school or a record of learning. The architecture reflects the aesthetics of the builder, values and spatial consciousness, and the social background at the time. In short, it can be said that the "records of school" included in the Mao Kun''s "TangSong Badajia WenChao(唐宋八大家文鈔)" was not only for educational purposes for the Keju(科擧) system, but also for the attempt of Canonization in the TangSong Badajia’s works and the relationship between the Song and the Ming dynasty.
