신라 중대 冊封號 授受의 배경과 의미

Abstract

This study examines Background and the meaning of Appointment titles received by the king and queen of Shilla in the 7th and 8th centuries. The war and diplomacy in East Asia in the 7th century were the result of conflicting interests of East Asian countries. After the Natang War (羅唐戰爭), the Tang Dynasty's strategy on the Korean Peninsula was shifted. Changes in the international situation surrounding the Korean Peninsula in the 7th century, and changes in the foreign policy of the Tang Dynasty, later influenced the Shilla-Tang relationship (羅唐關係). Since the royal family of the Shilla Kingdom ascended to the throne as a true skeleton, it needed a justification and system maintenance to strengthen the royal authority. The need to strengthen the royal authority of the Shilla Kingdom and overhaul the system were an internal conditions to maintain a friendly, lush relationship. In addition, during the reign of King Seongdeok (聖德王), the accession of Tang's Hyeonjong (唐玄宗), the founding and attack of the Balhae (渤海) were external conditions under which the friendly relations between the Tang Dynasty and Shilla were established. Since King Seongdeok (聖德王), the Shilla-Tang relationship (羅唐關係) has been stable. This kind of relationship between the two countries was developed in connection with the internal and external situations of Shilla In other words, the Tributary Appointment Relationship (朝貢冊封關係) between the Tang and Shilla was a political act based on the interests of the two countries. King Seongdeok dispatched a total of 46 Tang temples over the 36 years of his reign, which were diplomatic envoys, intermediates in public trade and channels for cultural exchanges. King Seongdeok wanted to strengthen the Tang's external friendly relations through the dispatch of Tang officials, and to accept the Tang's institutions and cultural properties to overhaul the system and strengthen the royal authority internally. Since King Seongdeok's reign, the Shilla-Tang relationship (羅唐關係) have become closer, and this is why Shilla's royal women's Appointment title is performed in addition to the Shilla king's. The Shilla accepted the Installation System (冊立體系) from the Tang and applied it to upper-class women, namely royal women and aristocratic women. The queen and the queen were established, and in cases where they were demoted from royal women to aristocratic women due to their departure, or the reward of aristocratic women, they were bound with a servant's articles corresponding to their status and their heritage. As such, the royal family has institutionalized the difference in status between royal women and aristocratic women. Through this, we wanted to raise the authority of the royal family and strengthen the royal authority. In the middle of the Shilla Dynasty, there were two cases in which the Tang dynasty took up not only the Shilla king but also the royal woman of Shilla. One is the Queen of King Hyoseong (孝成王妃), and the other is Queen mother of King Hyekong (惠恭王大妃) of Shilla. The Tang's seizure of the Shilla's queen was unusual compared to the neighboring countries. The Tang's establishment of the Shilla queen and the queen mother was internally caused by political opposition between the royal family and the aristocracy. Also externally, it was due to the solid Shilla-Tang relationship (羅唐關係) between the post-king Sungduk and the weakening of the Tang's ruling power within. This led to Shilla's request for the royal woman’s Installation title (冊立號) and the acceptance of the Tang dynasty.
