여말선초 대명(對明) 요하례(망궐례)의 거행과 의식 구조 변화 -고려 공민왕 ~ 조선 세종대를 중심으로-

Abstract

This paper looks into the performance and the structure of Yoha Ritual(遙賀禮) for the Ming Dynasty since the beginning of the official diplomatic relationship at the end of Goryeo Dynastiy until the completion of the 『Sejong Silok(世宗實錄)』 National Five Rites. Yoha Ritual which is a ritual congratulated from afar is also called Manggwol Ritual(望闕禮). Goryeo’s Yoha Ritual for the Ming Dynasty started when the Ming Dynasty bestowed the first book of 『Beonguk Euiju(蕃國儀注)』 upon Goryeo in the year of 1370. Goryeo created 『Beonguk Yeui(蕃國禮儀)』 based on 『Beonguk Euiju』 and its content had been passed down as 「The Manggwol Ritual for Lunar New Year’s Day·Winter solstice·the Birthday of the Emeperor(元正冬至上國聖壽節望闕賀儀)」 in 『The History of Goryeo(高麗史)』. Henceforth Goryeo’s performance of Yoha Ritual for the Ming Dynasty was passed down to the Joseon Dynasty and became recorded as 「The Manggwol Ritual for Lunar New Year’s Day·Winter solstice·the Birthday of the Emeperor(正至及聖節望闕行禮儀)」 in 『Sejong Silok』 National Five Rites after going through the revision process during King Taejong·Sejong. The performance of Yoha ritual during this period is based on following the rituals established by the Ming Dynasty while displaying some modification as the time passed by.
