16~17세기 近畿 지역 서인계 문인의 교류와 古文辭

Abstract

Geungi(近畿) area in the 16～17th century showed complicated political interests and rapidly responded to new academic knowledge or literary trend because the area is near the capital. It was natural that the area was flexible and had open academic traditions compared to other areas like Samnam(三南) regions etc. They distributed mainly in northern part of Han river in half-round shape, tied through a teacher and marriage, held power of political and literary realm, actively exchanged with literary writers with different party color. So they expanded their power towards southern part of Han river. Especially, such tendency was prominent in the Seoin group rather than the Dongin group(東人系). For example, there were Yoon Keun-soo(尹根壽) and Lee Hang-bok(李恒福) who were actual leaders of the Seoin in the middle stage from Yi I(李珥) to Kim Jang-saeng(金長生); some famous families such as Poongyang(豊陽) Cho of Cho Ik(趙翼), Yeonil(延日) Jeong of Jeong Hong-myeong(鄭弘溟), Yeonan(延安) Lee of Lee Jeong-gu(李廷龜), Hanyang(漢陽) Cho of Cho Wi-han(趙緯韓) and Cho Gyeong(趙絅). Unexpectedly, they have a common point that most of them had keen interest in ‘retro style writings’. This implies that besides taste for writing, region of Seoul and northern Gyeonggi worked as an important factor in start of ‘retro style writings’. This writing gave attention on issue of region which had been kept behind inner problems of literature like theory of external influence, theory of internal development etc. The westerners with interest in ‘retro style writings’ in Geungi area in the 16～17th century were formed centered on Yoon Keun-soo and Lee Hang-bok who stayed north of Han river. The Seoin such as Kim Sang-heon(金尙憲), Jang Yoo(張維), Jeong Hong-myeong, Jeong Yeop(鄭曄), Cho Ik, Kim Yook(金堉) etc. were the examples – the period maintained to the reign of king Hyojong. They exchanged with other writers such as Choi Rip(崔岦), Yoo Mong-in(柳夢寅), Shin Heum(申欽), Heo Gyun(許筠) etc. who did not have clear party color or were in different party going beyond interests of a party. The Seoin did not have clear color like Giho Salrim(畿湖 山林), so, they are not classified to a certain party in thoughts history and political history. This is somewhat related to that Geungi area was open and flexible.
