조선후기 嶺南의 經學硏究와 疏通의 摸索

Abstract

This thesis is focussed on the viewpoint of Yi, Sang-jeong(李象靖)'s 'mutual understanding(疏通)' that it drove up the stagnant study of Yeong-nam Confucian(Chinese) Classics in the later Jo-seon period. After generalizing about it, I gave careful consideration to the concrete Yi, Sang-jeong's 'mutual understanding' viewpoint and its influence of Choi, Sang-ryong(崔象龍)'s Confucian Classics theory of 'mutual understanding'. The way of 'mutual understanding' by Yi, Sang-jeong had influenced greatly to his pupils for two centuries, so that it brought a new trend about the stagnant study of Yeong-nam Confucian Classics. For example, Ryu, Jang-won(柳長源), a pupil of him, referenced to the theories of not only Dae-jeon-bon(大全本) but also other Ju-ja's theory. Moreover, Bae, Sang-yeol(裵相說) adopted not only the theory of Dae-jeon-bon but also the various theories of Myeong(明) and Cheong(淸)'s scholars. And Ryu, Geon-hyu(柳健休), the pupil of Ryu, Jang-won, adopted widely the theories by a bunch of Korean former scholar. The common point of these scholars is that of a new trial free from the old viewpoint of Ju-ja or Teo-gye ‘s way. However, they did not give a serious criticism to the various theories of Confucian Classics. The first scholar that overcame this limitation was Choi, Sang-ryong, the pupil of Jeong, Jong-no(鄭宗魯). He criticized the notes of Da-jeon-bon and the theories of Korean former scholars, so he did not sticked to the position of their supporter and added just comments to both the school of Gi-ho and Toe-gye with his objective attitude. This point is remarkable in the study of Yeong-nam Confucian Classics in the later Jo-seon period. Provided that, his study of Confucian Classics has a limitation that he could not adopted the various interpretation attitude like Bae, Sang-yeol.
