Abstract
In this study, we investigate the science and mathematics articles in Hansungsunbo and Hansungjubo which are the first modernistic newspapers in Korea. Hansungsunbo was published from October 31, 1883 to December 4, 1884 and Hansungjubo was issued from January 25, 1886 to July, 1888. While these papers were published, Korea had concluded a treaty with America(1882), England(1883), Germany(1883), Russia, and France(1884). Therefore, Korea had a lot of problems with commercial relations, the civilization and enlightenment of the Korean society. In this situation, some leaders who had the enlightenment thought published these two papers in order to inform the Korean people of the worldwide news on the politics, economy, history, science and technology, and so on. In this paper, we bring up the title and the contents on the science articles and the mathematics test problems of 'Dongmoonguan' and 'Chunjinmoobi School'.
