『金石集帖』의 여성 묘주 비석과 追記 연구

Abstract

This study examined a pattern of additional records(追記) and the reasons for the carving of additional records(追記), paying attention to the tombstone with backside record(陰記) in the 金石集帖. In particular, this study attempted to capture the families movements of after women's death and deepen the understanding of women’s lives and deaths in the Joseon Dynasty. In some cases, the additional records(追記) was engraved at the same time as the the original record(本記), and in some cases, the tombstone engraved with the the original record(本記) was already erected and 追刻ed in the margin of the original record(本記) after time passed. The position of the additional records(追記) was usually carved in the different compartment by changing the line following the the original record(本記). Thus, if there is a 追記 in the backside record(陰記), it shows a different appearance from the composition of the general tombstone. If the additional records(追記) is engraved with the the original record(本記), there is a change in the composition of the backside record(陰記). If the the original record(本記) was engraved and the additional records(追記) was engraved after time, there is a change not only in the composition but also in the handwriting. There was a special reason for engraving additional records(追記) in the backside record(陰記). If you look at the additional records(追記) engraved in the wake of the death of a woman, you can find that many of the female epitaph(碑文) are engraved in the form of additional records(追記) after her husband’s tombstone(碑石). It seems that the husband's tombstone was used instead of engraving the woman’s tombstone alone. Through the process of engraving this additional records(追記), the husband's tombstone was reconstructed as a a common tombstone with his wife. Therefore, if you pay attention to the additional records(追記) of the tombstone, you can clearly grasp the way women’s tombstone and epitaph exist. Sculpting a woman’s epitaph in the form of a additional records(追記), the descendants wanted to reveal various things, including extreme longing and mourning for her son’s mother, mourning for her grandson’s grandmother, and mourning for her political opponent.
