19세기 대구지역 지식인의 존재양상

Abstract

This article deals with Seo Chan-gyu's period of identity formation (1845-1861), who served as the leader of the Nakron community in Daegu in the 19th century. Seo Chan-gyu trained 632 literary students for about 44 years from 1862 (age 38) when he began his teaching to 1905 (age 81) when he died. This is a remarkable achievement made by Yulgok studies within the Yeongnam region, which has a strong influence on Toegye studies, and can be said to be one of the top academic forces in the Nakjung region. The driving force that made this possible stems from the influence of the character Seo Chan-gyu. Seo Chan-gyu left a diary from the age of 21, when he began his study, to the age of 37, just before starting his academic career. The end of writing diary means a transition from an objective position to an independent position that actively establishes one's own studies. The period when the diary was recorded is the time when Seo Chan-gyu's identity was formed and when the identity of the Imjae Munpa was defined later. Therefore, in order to clearly clarify the appearance of intellectuals in Daegu in the 19th century, it is necessary to review Seo Chan-gyu's identity formation period. Originally, Dalseong Seo clan had a history of family literature―it was Hangang-Yeoheon School in 17th century and Noron-Horon in 18th century. Later, as it became necessary to be incorporated into Nakron academic society, which led the academic world of Joseon, Seo Chan-gyu had a companionship under the leadership of Hong Jik-pil, the master of Nakron, through the organization of Daegu Seo. Seo Chan-gyu visited Hong Jik-pil and participated in lectures for four times, which allowed him to internalize the learning and principles of rightness of Nakron. Since then, he has been recognized by the Nakron community through Hong Jik-pil's Maesan-munpa and intellectuals in the Nakron field. This can also be confirmed through the recognition of Lim Heon-hoe and Jeon Woo who later succeeded the leader of the Nakron community.
