The aim of this thesis is to explore some aspects of the publication and the historical meaning of the publishing and cultural history of 31 volumes of collections of works printed by wooden movable-types at Hamyang (咸陽) county area in Gyeongnam Province. First of all, the history and the figures of Hamyang, the figures of Hamyang, the Confucian Academy and the printing woodblocks of Hamyang were investigated to examine the social and cultural background of the publishing. The author analyzed type of collections of works, their birth year and the family name of the author, the place and the year of the publication, and the printers of these different 31 kinds of the collections of works. The results are as follows: The collections of works demonstrate their forefathers’ academic competencies. The types of collections of works were divided into 3 types, Munjip(文集), Yujip(遺集), and Silgi(實記). Of the collections of works 48% were Munjip. The authors were local intellectuals. Of these authors 56% of authors were born in the 19th century. Fourteen lineage groups published collections of works at Hamyang area. Seventy-four percent of the publications were published from 1900 to 1949. In terms of place, most collections of works were published in the worshipping halls for their ancestors. Sixty-one percent of the collections of works were published within 50 years after the author had died. If the results of this study are compared with studies in nearby areas such as Geochang (居昌)․Sancheong (山淸) county area, it is expected that the uniqueness of the Hamyang area will be revealed more clearly.
