摘要
公元六世纪中叶,佛教自中国传入日本,并随之发扬光大。到了江户时代,随着受教育人数的激增,特别是平民子女受教育人数的激增和日本佛教的兴盛,寺庙的大肆兴建,逐渐的产生了一种日本独有的宗教教育——寺子屋教育。寺子屋教育以寺庙为授课地点,由寺庙的僧人为授课教师,面向广大平民子女,教授他们科学文化知识,并向他们讲述做人的道理,成为他们的人生导师。本文将重点阐述日本这种独特的宗教教育的产生、兴盛和衰落。
Since the middle of the sixth century, Buddhism had been introduced from China to Japan, and carried for-ward afterwards. In the Edo period, with the surge in the number of the educated, especially the civilian children and the rise of Buddhism in Japan many temples had been constructed, and thereby gradually developed a uniquely Japanese religious education - the education of Terakoya. Such education was for the vast number of civilian children, with temples as the venue and the temple monks as their teachers, who taught them the scientific and cultural knowledge as well as telling them the truth in life as their mentors. This article focuses on the unique Japanese religious education from its rise to prosperity to decline.
