17세기 퇴계학파 존재 갈암 항재 삼형제의 인물성동이론 고찰

Abstract

This paper compares and examines the theory of Inmulseongdongi of the three brothers, Jonjae(Lee Hwi-il, 1619-1672) and Galam(Lee Hyun-il, 1627-1704) and Hangjae(Yi Sung-il, 1631-1698), who are members of Toegye school in the 17th century. The beging of Toegye's Inmulseongdongiron begins with the argument between the three brothers, Jonjae and Galam and Hangjae, after the mid-17th century. Jonjae and Galam presented 'different theory' and held discussions with his younger brother Hangjae, who argued for 'same theory', making the theory of Inmulseongdongi an important issue. Their arguments are mainly focused on the question of whether people and things of nature have the same or different or whether people and things have the five constant virtues. Of course, this is different from the fact that the Kiho's school of Inmulseongdongi theory, which has been active since the early 18th century, it is distinguished from the fact that it was deepening into a matter of mibal good and evil and developed into a sharp argument that led to a school branch. Therefore, although the scope and scale of these three brothers' Inmulseongdongi theory were small, the logical development of the issue was clearly revealed.
