茶山의 農歌詩에 담긴 音樂的 담론

Abstract

Jeong Yak-yong (Dasan) is widely known as a scholar of practical science in the 19th century. However, he also had a profound knowledge about musicology. His musicology is based upon the study of Confucian classics. His musicology was established in the literary works including <Akron 1․2>, <Akseogojon>, and several other administrative poems. He argues penalties and wars were prevalent because the world had lost poems, songs, and rhymes after the Jin and Han eras when <Akgyeong> was destroyed. He understood the restoration of <Akgyeong> as a revival of the spirit of poems and the harmony of rhymes. In an effort to restore that, Dasan created several pieces of agricultural rhymes called "Chonyo," village rhymes. He left 10 pieces of Jangginongga, 20 of Tamjinchonyo, 20 of Tamjinnongga, and 10 of Tamjineoga. Therefore, the historical value of folk rhymes transmitted by word of mouth can be understood when we examine the musical passages in Dasan's agricultural poems. We can get a glimpse of rice-planting and barley-threshing rhymes of Janggi in Jangginongga. In Tamjinchonyo, the trace of military music in Gangjin can be found. Tamjinnongga gives us clues to understand ploughing or harrowing, rice-planting, spading, weeding, and weaving rhymes in Gangjin. This literary study, by closely examining the relationship between the literature and the word of mouth, is expected to lead to an academic achievement in understanding the music transmitted by word of mouth.
