고사인물화 유형 문자도의 현황과 의의

Abstract

Hyojae Munjado(word picture), which was popular in the Joseon era, is a creative content that visually completes the social ideology advocated by the headword chinese character(표제 한자) by combining letters and figures. In Munjado, narrative figure painting type Munjado(고사인물화 유형 문자도) even though there are only six kinds of existing works, but it still plays an important role in the study of Munjado. Organize all the current situation of existing narrative figure painting type Munjado, in what ways it is significant, I presented concrete examples from the following three aspects. First of all, there are many the picture titles(화제) that are not found in other types of Munjado, and they play a role in quantitatively increasing the materials. This gives researchers the advantage of being able to see Munjado with more material. The second is to complement the thematic expression of the headword chinese character. This helps to keep Munjado's subject matter simple and unconventional, eliciting rich meaning, and lets us know what Munjado desiner's creative intentions are. Thirdly, it is a shorthand for understanding other Munjados. At present, the narrative figure painting type Munjado may be the key to unlocking the meaning of other Munjados in the situation where both the picture titles of Munjado and the picture titles have not been clarified. Looking at these points, the narrative figure painting type Munjado does not seem light at all, but rather, it is the first contrast to be studied in Munjado.
