노사 기정진의 학문과 사상 연구

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the academic world and ideology of Nosa Gi Jeong Jin, who established a large school of philosophers in Honam and Yeongnam that originated in the mid-19th century. The house of Nosa Gi Jeong Jin is of an outstanding academic tradition and heritage, including famed scholars such as Banggye Gi Dae Seung over its history. Especially, the great-great-great grandfather of Gi Jeong Jeon, whose name was Gi Jeong Ik, was a student of Song Shi Yeol and had a number of students of his own. In his philosophy, he was not limited to Joo Hee but also covered Jeong Ho and even Jeong Yi, establishing a family tradition of academic achievements. Later, the house of Gi Jeong Jin had many descendants who passed the Gwageo exam to grow one of the most prestigious houses not only in Jangseong but also across Honam. The school of Nosa Gi Jeong Jin, founded in admiration of his academic legacy, had a significant impact on society at its time. For this reason, not much has been known about the academic achievements and successes of Gi Jeong Jin during the tumultuous period from the mid/late-19th century to the Japanese Occupation. Therefore, in this study, the researcher expanded beyond the scope of academic achievements and ideology of Gi Jeong Jin to examine the relationship with the local community and the political powers and his view on reality, focusing on his achievements.
