When we understand things around us, we often put them into narrative order. The ability to turn anything into narrative is very important in our cognitive functions, but it also has a negative effect of making us blind to things themselves. In this sense, one of the goals in literary education is to help one to resist the habit of making narrative so that one can see things just the way they really are. Minoru Tanaka's new literary theory is very useful for this type of teaching, for it is centered on the mechanism of narration.

The act of reading doesn't simply consist of a static relation between reader and text. There must be a third term, what Minoru Tanaka calls "unintelligible other," which plays an important role in the dynamics of reading. Tanaka's theory that a text becomes intelligible in the process of reading can be applied as a principle of reading to our actual teaching. We may find a possibility of literary education in such unity between theory and practice.

The primary aim of reading a literary text in class is to help students with its imaginative power to acquire the habit of self-reflection. To achieve this goal, first of all we must devise a way of reading by which we can make the most of such textual potentiality. As an attempt to find an effective method, here I will examine the plot and narrative structure of Shonen-no-hi-no-omoide, a common material for the teaching of kokugo at junior high school.

There are three major contexts at school; the context for school management, the context for teaching in class, and the context for working as teacher. They are not organically united but entirely independent of each other. For the very reason, ironically the contexts have turned into fragments and very often lost their proper functions. Thus it is now imperative to re-unite these fragmented contexts into a whole one in which management, teaching, and working can be more comprehensively and interactively conducted.

The aim of literary education is probably to cultivate skill to challenge and go beyond a routine way of reading. To demonstrate it, here I will read "Rasho-mon" and "Chiisana-tebukuro" with the method of contrast. I have elaborated this way of reading while grappling with the question of what fiction is and in the process experiencing difficulties in understanding others.

Once there was a controversy on a teaching method of kokugo between Ryuichi Nakamura who advocated literary education and Seiji Tsuruta who emphasized instruction in linguistic skill. They vigorously disputed over the educational principle of kokugo, but after several rounds of discussion they put an end to the controversy without coming to any conclusion. The literature-oriented teaching Nakamura insisted on seems to be still valid, but it is very questionable whether his theory can be practically applied. By reviewing the old controversy in such a critical way, we teachers can make a positive use of it for our teaching activities.

The concept of "context" in literary studies is different from that in educational studies. Indeed, it has become harder to be univocally defined since a rapid development and ramification of literary theories. In this article, I will sort out the "contexts" held in different fields and theories. Then I will critically review what Minoru Tanaka calls a new literary theory by showing that his idea of a third term works only in a specific context.

In the "Tenarai" volume of Genji-monogatari, Ukifune listens to the sound of "hita" or bird rattles. The sound of bird rattles, a traditional device in waka poetry, is charged with multivalent significance in the story. Apart from signifying the locality of the eastern region, the sound often works as important narrative moments; it tells Ukifune about her man's approach or it gives her the warning of a stranger's intrusion. Moreover it corresponds to her state of mind and its associative power helps her to arouse memories. In this article, I will examine both narrative and acoustic effects brought about by bird rattles.
