고려시대 경주민의 항쟁과 제사

Abstract

Uprising of the peasants were frequently happened during the period of the government of the Military Rule in Koryo dynasty. I will focus on the Kyongju(Kyongsang-Do) inhabitants' struggle in 1202. These uprising of the Kyungju were characteristic of the those period such as the struggle against landed proprietors and local officials, against national government and the nostalgia of the Silla Kingdom. For example, The reasons of the Kyung-Ju inhabitants' struggle at King SinJong were not only the sense of alienation on the Koryo dynasty but also the exploitation on the peasants. The restoration of the destroyed Silla kingdom took a key role of the Kyung-Ju inhabitants' struggle. This issue was not for the people's interest but for the Koyong-Ju landed proprietors' purpose. When they met the national disorder, sacrifice on the gods was a dally events of Koryo dynasty. In the Kyongsang area, such close cooperation among rebel forces had given them strength to continue their struggle for some ten years. During the Kyongju inhabitants' struggle, Koryo government performed the 33th rite. The government regarded this struggle as the serious national disorder. At that time, these rites included the Buddhism, the Taoism, and various popular believes. It was the Buddhism that was the popular national belief in the Koryo dynasty. However many believes were remained to coexist peacefully. These gods worked for the purpose of their credence both the Government and the rebel bands. The various popular believes at Koryo dynasty were cowered because of the Mongolian Buddhism at the King Chongsuk period and the Sung Confucianism at Chosun dynasty. In the end of these popular uprisings were suppressed, but their believes based on the various popular believes and these believes are keeping alive at this present.
