근현대 애도의 표상물인 상장(喪章)의 도입과 유형별 변천 양상

Abstract

This study examines the changes in the funeral since modern times through the ritual system and clothing. The funeral of the traditional era was regarded as an ambassador of humanity as a moral practice of maintaining the nation and family. But funerals also change because modern times are a turning point in social culture. Therefore, the changes in the funeral clothing were arranged through the ceremonial system. Funeral clothing allows descendants to have a pious mind, and because they are of different types according to the procedure, they can identify the form and process of consciousness. But in modern era, funeral clothing is structured into clothes, “Sangbok(喪服)” and the symbol of mourning, “Sangjang(喪章)”. ‘Sangjang(喪章)’ appear as symbols of modern funerals. Depending on the position of wear, it can be divided into ‘Wansangjang(腕喪章)’ worn on the arm and ‘Hyungsangjang(胸喪章)’ attached to the chest. ‘Sangjang’ also show changes in color in black and white, such as ‘Sangbok’, and the wear target category expands. An accessory to the traditional Sangjang is a tear wash that ties to the left breast and it led to wearing black fabric on the chest in the Japanese colonial period. After Independence, hats ‘Dugeon(頭巾)’ and armbands ‘Wansangjang’ became representative of Sangjang worn by immediate family members, and ribbon style ‘Hyungsangjang’ and white flowers have become common symbols worn by all who mourn for death.
