서울 부군당의 실존 인물 숭배 양상

Abstract

This article examined an aspect of worship on existent characters enshrined in Bugundang, a type of the seoul town faith. Many existent characters are enshrined in Bugundang, the representative shrine of Seoul, with Dodang. I suggested which town Bugundang and how Nami, Choi young, Kim Yu shin, the king Gong min, Lee seong kye, Gwanu, Jegalgongmyong, Lee sun shin, Dan gun were enshrined in the concrete. It was possible to approach practically because existent characters became shapes into the pictures of shaman gods. Existent characters in the Bugundang are divided into two classes. One is the case of Bugun as a Major god and the other is a subsidiary God of Bugun. In case of a subsidiary God, most of gods were generals. The kind of case is that the concrete existent characters, who are mostly generals appeared in seoul gut, are enshrined. If they were enshrined as a Bugun, they might be characters of good lineage. They are accepted as a symbol. Like this, the reason of enshrining existent characters in Bugun is that the divinity-character of Bugun was not standardized. Bugun appeared in the pictures of shaman gods doesn't have an iconographic commonness because it was different from another gods of those pictures. Many existent characters with unstandardized characteristic of Bugun became Bugun. The existent characters showed themselves in a gut geory, pictures of shaman gods and tales. Existent character as a Bugun appeared in a gut geory through a specific geory showed the distinctive features of Bugundang gut. On the other hand, existent characters as a subsidiary God didn't show the features of Bugundang gut for appearing in a Bugundang gut as well as a seoul gut. Through this research, I drew a conclusion of the meaning and aspect of worship on existent characters enshrined in the Bugundang, Seoul area. I suggested that the Bugundang had an unique formation process, not influence of the past authorities, by means of the research.
