    This study analyzes the syllabus and textbooks of The History of Human Culture, a high school world cultural history course offered during the Course of Study period (1946–1954). Unlike middle school history education, which emphasized human life and everyday experience, this course presented an integrated cultural history of both Eastern and Western civilizations. Three textbooks were published while government authorization and approval systems coexisted.
    The course was designed not merely to enumerate political events but to provide a comprehensive account of the development of human life and civilization. Its establishment may also have been influenced by cultural history courses offered as general education at Korean universities after liberation.
    The three textbooks covered politics, economy, society, religion, scholarship, and the arts at a relatively advanced level. Although all three claimed to follow the syllabus, they differed considerably in content and organization, suggesting that textbook authors had substantial discretion in interpreting and restructuring the prescribed curriculum. Greater attention was given to ancient Greek and Roman culture, early modern Europe, and the French and Industrial Revolutions, while ancient India, Buddhism, Islamic culture, and East-West cultural exchanges received less coverage. This reveals a clear Eurocentric orientation, along with the relatively dominant position of Chinese history within Asian history.
    The textbooks also reflected contemporary realities such as liberation, national division, state-building, and the Korean War. All three concluded with a unit on “the mission of the Korean nation from the perspective of cultural history.” They further attempted to explain historical knowledge as constructed through evidence and inquiry, while including questions, reports, and discussion activities to promote student thinking. However, differences in visual materials, frequent use of Chinese characters and foreign terms, advanced concepts, and excessive content indicate insufficient consideration of students’ learning level and the limited instructional time of approximately one hour per week.
