『禮記』 「樂記」에서 禮와 비교되는 樂의 예술 교육적 시사점

Abstract

In this study, 「Yue Chi」(「樂記」) which is know to be written by GongSun,NiZi (公孫尼子) or Hexian, XianWhan(何間獻王) contains the implication of moral education through the connection between Li(禮) and Yue(樂). The foundation for the idea of the Li-Yue(禮樂) in the doctrines of Confucius was established during the Zhou Dynasty(周), and this idea was systematically defined in 「Yue-Chi」(「樂記」) during early Han Dynasty through Confucius and Xun Zi. In the idea of the Li-Yue(禮樂) in the doctrines of Confucius,people's mind was based on the order of Natural Cosmos so manners[禮] and music[樂] were considered to be very important means to build up one´s character. Among them, the education through Yue[樂敎] can be considered the enhancement of moral consciousness through artistic experiences and expressions. Therefore, this study presents that Yue(樂) is an integral element in the moral education that allows people to go on the path of benevolence pleasantly. Because Yin(音) might be monotonous but is a sense of human mind influenced by exterior materials but keeps the characteristics of ‘inconvenient giggling sound(姦聲)’ or ‘normal sound(正聲)’. Also, the Confucian theory describes various type of sounds to invoked human emotion. the study suggested a possibility of music education by analyzing the various kind of practical sounds can relate to human emotion of living closely and the sound can control excessive or short human emotion by characteristics. therefor Artistic activities are actively used for promoting emotional development, not for merely improving amusement or expression or developing creativity. Therefore, this education through Yue(樂敎) could be guidelines for current art education.
