Abstract

Among the ancient documents handed down in Andong Kwon Bujeonggong Clan, there were several original pieces of ancient documents written in the 15th century. In the results of active data collecting activities by the Korean Studies Institute, about 600 pieces of old books, ancient documents, and woodblocks of Andong Kwon Bujeonggong Clan were identified. Among them, I discovered five ancient documents of the 15th century that were not introduced to the academia. The ancient documents of the 15th century that were identified this time included a piece of an answer paper of the civil service examination by Kwon Jing in 1449, a piece of Josa documents issued to Kwon Gahu in 1454, two pieces of Josa documents issued to Kwon Jing in 1457, and a piece of certificate of appointment issued to Kwon Gapseong in 1498. This thesis conducted the basic analysis on those ancient documents and then examined their significance in the area of diplomatics. In summary, the answer paper in 1449 was estimated as a Jucho a clerk copied based on the answer paper submitted to the first stage of the civil service examination by Kwon Jing. Also, the three Josa documents issued to Kwon Gahu and Kwon Jing have not only high scarcity value of data, but also have a very important meaning for examining the change process of document form and document system of the 15th century together with other original Josa documents identified so far. The certificate of appointment issued to Kwon Gapseong is a case of showing the early document system in which the National Code system was settled down after the foundation of the Joseon Dynasty.
