『古今歌曲』의 장가 체계

Abstract

The 25 long songs in Gogeumgagok;古今歌曲 have a constitution divided into 3 styles-Chinese poems/ poetry for official examination(Gwacheshi 科體詩 or Tongshi 東詩)/ Korean long songs(Gasa 가사). And these 3 styles coexist under the condition that those should be sung. Long song(Changga 長歌)'s counterpart is short song(Tanga 短歌), namely Kagok(歌曲). In 18th century the songbooks in which Kagok(歌曲)'s important repertoires were arranged could be published and in their prefaces or postscripts we can see the view of music stressed on classicism. We also can see this view in Gogeumgagok;古今歌曲 by it's collection of repertoires, and the men attended on their performances. That collection had an orientation toward a certain political party and it's attendants had a sympathy infected on the process of entertainments. I think the editor of Gogeumgagok;古今歌曲 should be that attendant, and Gogeumgagok;古今歌曲's editing date might be the year of 1764.
