조선시대 승정원 有旨의 유형과 제도

Abstract

Yuji(有旨) at Joseon Dynasty is a document which was issued by Seungjeongwon(承政院) when the King’s orders were transferred to the district government officials. In 1443 (25th year of King Sejong), Yuji was conducted when the functions of civil war news were differentiated as Yuseo and Yuji. It was called as ‘Yujiseojang(有旨書狀)’ at early Joseon Dynasty and the document name called ‘Yuji(有旨)’ was gradually used. Document type of Yuji was written by the Seungji in charge at the front page and at the main text, the Yuji were in variety written, and at the Gyeolsa(結辭), ‘Sa(事)’ and ‘Yuji(有旨)’ were commonly written. Subsequently, Chinese era name, year, month and date were written and ‘Seung jeong-won-In(承政院印)’ was stamped and sealed. At the back, government service and family name were written and ‘Gaetag(開坼)’ or ‘Gaetag(開拆)’ was written and, after folding and sealing the ‘Yuji’, Seungji in charge wrote in the Habgeumcheo(合襟處). According to the systemized orders of the King, the types of Yuji can be classified into Sangraeyuji(上來有旨), Bidabyuji(批答有旨), Muldaejoiyuji(勿待罪有旨), Posangyuji(褒賞有旨), Gyose(敎書)․Yuseo(諭書)․Milbu(密符) related Yuji(有旨), Geubmayuji(給馬有旨), Jeonyuyuji(傳諭有旨) and Bongshimyuji(奉審有旨). Through these types of Yuji, various orders of the King during the King’s state administration could be identified. And, the duties of the Seungjeongwon who received and delivered King’s orders can be identified through the document called as ‘Yuji’.
