『李氏聯珠集』 硏究 - 李廷龜 家系의 文學傾向을 中心으로

Abstract

『Leessiryeonjujip』 requires attention as an important anthology of poetry showing that the literary tradition has been handed down faithfully in the family structure leading from Lee Jeong-gu to Lee Myeong-han and Lee So-han, Pal Sang again. The natural qualities of Lee Jeong-gu·Lee Myeong-han·Lee So-han·Pal Sang are significantly associated with their literary expression or trends. Rather than selecting poetic phrases through training and artificial rhetorics, they usually expressed their emotions naturally and punctuations and mottos are the examples. So the literature of Lee Jeong-gu family line is generally evaluated to be the Tang style. Despite somewhat differences in expression, various comments that discuss Pal Sang’s poems have significantly similar characteristics. In particular, the comments of three generations of Lee Jeong-gu·Lee Myeong-han·Lee Il-sang called as broadness and excellence are the most similar. It is difficult to deny that this similarity originated from the transmission of household literature. Lee Jeong-gu and Kim Chang-hyeop had the same goal in terms of the pursuit of authenticity. However, Nongam Kim Chang-hyeop pointed out Lee Jeong-gu’s disadvantage that rigor is lacking in the system and there is no elegance. While inheriting the literary trend of previous generations, Pal Sang constantly tried to escape the limits of the Tang style made de-individually and the limits of Lee Jeong-gu. By overcoming these points to some degree, Pal Sang showed progress in rhetorics. However, as can be seen from the fact that Nam Yong-ik evaluated Lee Myeong-han the most highly in the literature of Lee Jeong-gu family line, it is difficult to see that Pal Sang exceeded the literature of previous generation. But it is obvious that Pal Sang is located in the center in the literary inheritance of the household leading to Myeongam Lee Hae-jo and Jinam Lee Cheon-bo and played an important link role. 『Leessiryeonjujip』 can be said to be quite valuable in terms of containing the literature of Pal Sang. The fact is that Nongam Kim Chang-hyeop and Samyeon Kim Changheup’s influence also acted on the literature of Myeongam Lee Hae-jo and Jinam Lee Cheon-bo in Lee Jeong-gu family line. Comparing their poems with the literature of previous generations, however, despite a difference in depth, they are evaluated to be ‘broad’ or ‘clear’ and ‘excellent’ similar to comments of previous generations. This proves that the poetical style of the family line has been inherited continuously. Unlike existing research investigating the literary influence relationship mainly in terms of contemporary drivers or social intercourse, the literature and trend of Lee Jeong-gu family line is a good example showing the need for research in terms of inheritance of family literature.
