A learner carries out ``cultural activity`` in the process of acceptance and production of literature. Cultural memory is mechanism of memory which is intervened in the process of transmission and creation of culture. This aims to exploring content and method transmitted to ``now and here`` rather than investigating past fact itself. That is, a learner does not stay in learning past events as historical knowledge, but re-interpret past events from the view of present time. As it were, a learner creates present cultural meaning with a medium of text. This is the very reason why ``cultural memory`` should be introduced in literary education. This study sees that discourse of ``cultural memory`` can provide concrete method of literary education as cultural practice. Importance of a certain event is based on that the event is memorized as important fact, it gives influences on present time enough when there are continued changes. The event itself is not important. Such continuancy of memory becomes a power to maintain current community. Accordingly, this activity can be a method of literary education - the activity to investigate formation process of cultural memory with a medium of literary text and to reorganize memory based on present cultural context. This study suggested a method at the dimension of ‘to find cultural memory’, ‘to understand discourse of memory’, and ``creation of meaning of cultural memory’. A learner should be a subject to create cultural memory going beyond a subject to accept transmitted cultural memory. To do this, a learner should be equipped with ability to analyze cultural memory shown on literary text and to criticize it from meta view. And literary education should play a role to cultivate a subject to accept and create cultural memory.
