Abstract

This paper deals with Yangchon Kwonkun(1352～1409)’s understanding of <the book of odes> and relevant aspects between his poetry and <the book of odes>. Under the circumstance of that <Sicheongyeonnok(詩淺見錄)> has been studied, the view of the book of odes has been researched from other poetry. <Sicheongyennok> has regarded <the book of odes> as the poetry of positive temperament(性情之正) and sense of kindness(感發善心), as well as cultivating oneself and governing the men(修己治人). While in other poetry he was specially concerned about the skill of comparision(比) and affective image(興) from <the book of odes>. It has something in common with Yangchon’s literary view which he has a lot interests in art of writing(辭章之學). To pursue implications of poetry and chic of language, Yangchon’s poetry has accepted or transformed <the book of odes>’s poetic theme(詩旨), and poetic diction(詩語) with paying attention to Neo-Confucian contents of <the book of odes>. It can be considered that the reason of Yangchon’s concern to <the book of odes> may results from two aspects. One is from the chaotic state of affairs during the end of Koryo dynasty and early Chosun dynasty, as well as his wish for curing the resulting ethical corruption in politically way. And the other is from his serious consideration on the art of writing(辭章之學) which is on the assumption of poetry’s Tao-carrying(載道) role in Literary way.
