Abstract

Studying foreign language education in late Qing Dynasty in Hubei can be of reference significance for today’s foreign langauge education as it has been in the lead in China since late Qing Dynasty. This paper, on the basis of Applied Lingustics, classifies foreign language education in this period into three types, namely, in schools set up by westernizationists, in church schools set up by missionaries, and in encouraging students to study abroad, and then discusses about the characteristics and some implications for the current foreign language education in Hubei. The findings show that language planning was reasonable and foreign language education in late Qing Dynasty in Hubei had cultivated a lot of practical talents who could meet the social, economic and diplomatic needs in Hubei.
