영조 대 성균관 시학 연구

Abstract

This study is to analyze the cases of Confucian National University Symposium in Youngjo regime and to understand the meaning of educational promotion policy in Joseon dynasty. Young-jo carried out the symposium three times in his regime, ie 1733, 1742 and 1756. The results are as follows. First Young-jo wanted to educate the scholars of National University by himself through the symposium. He visited the university 19 times in his regime and showed his interest in the education. The symposiums were held in his visits. Second the symposium wqas planned as a special momentum. So the holding time was irregular. The 1733 symposium was held after settling the fuss in 1726, the 1742 symposium was carried out after the entrance ceremony of his young prince, and the 1756 symposium was planned suddenly after a political event in 1755. Third the symposium was a special academic ceremony to give educational effects to the scholars by a many-sided communication. The communication can be divided into three dimensions. One is a direct communication dimension among the participants in the seminar hall (Myunglyundang, 明倫堂), another is a indirect communication dimension between the participants and the scholar audience, and the other is a direct communication dimension between Young-jo and the scholars. Fourth the symposium shows the characteristic of the education promotion policy in Joseon dynasty. It was to educate the scholar as a true confucian and loyal subject. It also reflected the double sideness of Young-jo as a philosopher-king.
