Abstract

This paper looks at the process leading to the change in the name of the subject of art in the curriculum of national schools during the Second World War. It investigates the plan for the subject of art ("art and manual art") in schools put forward by the education council in 1938 and looks at the opinions of educators who opposed this at the time. The study focuses on the minutes of the committee meetings of the education council and discussions of art educators, analyzing the descriptions art and crafts. The lower grade subject of handicraft was seen to be absorbed into the upper grade subject of art. A plan for the subject of art, following the plan of the education council, was made and 'craft' (kosaku) was accepted as the name of the subject.
