필사본 『불우헌유고(不憂軒遺稿)』의 발굴과 <상춘곡(賞春曲)>의 작자 문제

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to reveal the literary characteristics of the newly discovered manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 and to discuss the authorship issue of <Sangchungok> again. In Chapter 2, the bibliography characteristics of the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 were examined. The manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 is one book, length 32.5×width 21.5cm, and a total of 38 pages. The person who copied it and when it was copied is unknown. The title of the book is “Buluheonyugo(不憂軒遺稿)”. It looks blurry at the top left of the cover. The most basic things that a collection of literature should have, such as prolog and epilog, records of a deceased person’s life, and epitaphs put in graves, were omitted. It is also unusual to put Korean poetry and prose before Chinese poetry. It is judged to be a version close to the original edition, as there are still unresolved traces everywhere, such as writing the corrections in the margins or recording the same work in two. In Chapter 3, the characteristics of manuscripts 『Buluheonyugo』 were identified through comparison with the published first edition 『Buluheonjip(不憂軒集)』. the results are as follow. First, <Sangchungok> was not included in the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』. In the first edition 『Buluheonjip』, <Buluheonga(不憂軒歌)>, <Buluheongok (不憂軒曲)>, and <Sangchungok> are included in the item ‘Gagok(歌曲)’. On the other hand, the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 contains only <Buluheongok> and <Buluheonga> at the beginning of the without a separate item name. In addition, all manuscripts 『Buluheonyugo』 are written in Idu(吏讀), whereas in the published first edition 『Buluheonjip』, <Buluheongok> is written in Idu, and <Buluheonga> and <Sangchungok> are written in the modern Korean language of the 18th century. Second, in the case of prose, the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 is wholly equipped with the passages lost in the published first edition 『Buluheonjip』. In <Ujinpyeso(又陳弊疏)> of the published first edition 『Buluheonjip』, some of the articles discussing ‘the evils of land grades in the tax law’ and ‘the tolerant evils of the law governing thieves’ were lost, and ‘the following articles were los(此下逸)’ is annotated separately, but all of these passages appear in the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』. Third, Korean poetry contains 83 titles and 156 numbers in the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』, and 54 titles and 92 numbers in the published first edition 『Buluheonjip』. The manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 contains all the works in the published first edition 『Buluheonjip』 as well as 29 titles and 64 more. Jeong Geuk-in(丁克仁) ’s works contain 60 titles and 106 numbers in the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 and 36 titles and 58 numbers in the published first edition 『Buluheonjip』. There are more 24 titles and 48 numbers in the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』. Most of the titles of the poems newly appearing in the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 are the works of Jeong Geuk-in. Comparing the works included in the published first edition 『Buluheonjip』 and the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 at the same time, there are many cases where the number of works included in the published first edition 『Buluheonjip』 is small despite the title of the same poem. As a result of the above comparison, it was revealed that there was a significant difference between the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 and the published first edition 『Buluheonjip』. The manuscript not only has the contents completely lost in the published edition 『Buluheonjip』, but also has a much larger number and volume of works. Therefore, in this paper, the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 was regarded as the version before it was lost in the process of the Imjin War, as mentioned by Hwang Yun-Seok(黃胤錫). In Chapter 4, the issue of the author of <Sangchungok> was reconsidered. What we have confirmed through the manuscript 『Buluheonyugo』 is that <Sangchungok> was not originally included in Jeong Geuk-in’s remains but was included in the publication of the first edition 『Buluheonjip』. In this paper, by analyzing the reasons from various angles, we came to the conclusion that there is little possibility that Jeong Geuk-in wrote <Sangchungok>. <Sangchungok> is thought to be a work that was later written by the children of the family or by someone in their hometown. Here, after resignation, it is judged that the authorship of the work was given by overlapping the life of Jeong Geuk-in, who lived a simple life in Taein(泰仁) and devoted himself to lectures and academics and transformed it into his work. Afterward, it was widely distributed as a work written by Jeong Geuk-in around his hometown and was even included in the collection of literary works.
