Theorizing efforts required for completing literature education as one literary field have been lacking. It is because they were under a very heavy and strong influence of literature theories and also epistemology which escapes from traditional curriculum which identifies literature subjects as a scholarship is yet to be developed. It is safe to say that literature education has formed its identity on a practical level rather than on a theoretical level. The following efforts to develop a system of theories with an identity would be needed for literature education. First, efforts to seek philosophies of literature education and establish the philosophies as a basis of literature education have been in shortage. In this respect, there is a need for examining achievements of existing educationall philosophy from a perspective of a win-win between academic fields. The philosophies of literature education in the future must meet universal topics in life and reality and demands of the real life. Second, for establishing the theories of literature education, strategic ideas for communicating and combining the theories from other fields which directly or indirectly have interaction with literature education. The current literature education does not have much room for newly establishing ‘a network of theory developing’ as ‘literature’. Also it is also notable that for developing theories of literature education could later become the key content in social education in addition to the academic education. Third, there must be sustainable discourses for the research community of theories in literature education. There is an understanding that theories are only significant when they satisfactorily meet the reality but, there are research communities whose pure goal is in theories themselves. Indeed, this is on the basis that literature education can contribute to overall development in some way. The current literature education is focused too much on finding development tasks and therefore, it must reflect on the fact that theories are not leading the developments.
