『상원사 중창 권선문』의 조성 경위에 대한 연구

Abstract

This study examines the『Odaesan Sangwonsa Jungchang Kwonseonmun (五臺山 上院寺 重創 勸善文)』which was written in 10th year of the age of Sejo (世祖)(1464 A.D.) who was a King of the Chosun (朝鮮) dynasty. This literature which forms the Cheopjang (帖裝) includes Kwonseonmun (勸善文) written by Sinmi (信眉) and Eocheop (御牒) written by Sejo (世祖). I discuss subjects related to this literature below. The first subject is that finding out the era during which the Eocheop was written. It is well-known when the Kwonseonmun was written(1464.12.18 A.D.), but the writing year of the Eocheop was unknown. As a result of this study,I discovered that the Eocheop was written in February 20th Eulyunyeon (乙酉年), 11th year of Sejo (1465 A.D.). The second subject is that of finding a reason why the Eonhaebon (諺解本) and Hanmunbon (漢文本) were written separately. I discovered the reason, which is that the Eonhaebon was mainly written for women including women of the royal family, such as Naemyeongbu (內命婦) and Oemyeongbu (外命婦). The third subject is determining the time at which the Kwonseonmun and Eocheop were translated into Hangeul . I focused on the purpose of the Kwonseonmun and Eocheop that of gathering wealth for Jungchangbulsa (重創佛事). By regarding various evidence, I conclude that Eonhaebon was written immediately after the writing of Hanmunbon . The fourth subject is determining the person who was directly involved in the translation of Hangeul(Eonhae). By regarding various evidences that were related to Eonhae after writing Kwonseonmun , I conclude that Hakjo (學祖) translated the Kwonseonmun and Eocheop into Hangeul . The fifth subject is determining the reason why Sinmi’s Kwonseonmun and Sejo’s Kwonseonmun are compiled into one Cheopjang , although they were written in different years. Those two Kwonseonmuns have similar handwriting and are in a same Cheop (帖). This aims at showing those two Kwonseonmuns to people and to keep the Kwonseonmuns for a long time. It is highly possible that Buddhist monks compiled the Kwonseonmuns into one book under the supervision of Hakyeol (學悅) who was substantially responsible for Jungchangbulsa.
