한글필사본 충무공행장에 대하여 - 새 자료 우리한글박물관 소장 『튱무공행장』을 중심으로 -

Abstract

This is the historical contemplation about the memoirs of biography of Yi Sun-Sin[李舜臣] revered as a national hero and immortal spirit in Korean history. In this study, I have tried to illuminate the value and meaning on the hangul manuscript ‘Haengjang’[行狀] in Joseon dynasty. Especially <Chungmugonghaengjang> [튱무공행장], a new material of the collection in Woori Hangul Museum, has been analyzed more intensively. <Chungmugonghaengjang> in Woori Hangul Museum is one book and estimated that it might be published during the late 18th through the early 19th century according to the form and writing patterns of the words. It is considered that it is written for women who may not know chinese characters to pay respect and remember their ancestors' deeds even if there is no information about the transcriber. ‘Chungmugonghaengrok’ has undergone certain modifications over the period of time. A typical example is a part of childhood anecdotes. It showed two episodes in the chinese version <chungmurok>[忠武錄] presumed to be published before 1643, but they haven't appeared on 「Haengrok」[行錄] of <Full edition of Yi Chungmugong>[李忠武公全書] released under the order of King Jeonjo in 1795. However, <Chungmugonghaengjang> is a valuable translated material which well reflects the early Hangul Haengjangl. Furthermore it is expected to be widely used for the basic material on future research of Yi Sun-sin.
