『金石記』를 통해서 본 『金石集帖』의 제작 의도 고찰 —고려시대 이전 금석문을 중심으로—

Abstract

Kim Jae-ro and his descendants compiled a vast 226 volumes of Geumseok Jipcheop (金石集帖), containing more than 1,800 kinds of epigraph. However, if you look at Geumseok Jipcheop (金石集帖), it is noticeable that it is distinctly different from the previous the rubbing album. It is that there are absolutely few epigraph made before the Goryeo dynasty. In addition, the important epigraph, which collectors of epigraph before Kim Jae-ro searched for so much, are missing. The reason for writing this paper is to examine it. In order to solve these questions, I paid attention to Geumseokgi (金石記), which recorded a list of epigraph from early on. Geumseokgi (金石記) divides epigraph across the country by region and marks the location and name of nearly 3,800 epigraph, and is the book containing the most extensive information on epigraph. However, it was difficult to use it because the author of Geumseokgi (金石記) could not be confirmed. In this paper, it was first proved that Kim Jae-ro was the author of Geumseokgi (金石記). In addition, the epigraph made before the Goryeo dynasty contained in Daedonggeumseokseo (大東金石書), Geumseokgi (金石記), and Geumseokrok (金石錄) were compared. Through this, it was concluded that the purpose of compiled Geumseok Jipcheop (金石集帖) was not to use it as a calligraphy appreciation or a calligraphy textbook, but to find a model of epigraph that can be used to produce actual epigraph. Therefore, Kim Jae-ro focused on collecting epigraph in the Joseon dynasty, which was more intact than before the Goryeo dynasty. In the end, it can be seen that the purpose of collecting epigraph pursued by Kim Jae-ro is not in terms of ‘to prove historical facts,’ but rather in terms of ‘expanding knowledge for practical use.’
