朴齊家의 竟信堂夾袋와 北關風情

Abstract

The studies on poetry of Pak Che-ga(1750-1805) have focused on the early works, so the poetics achievements after he served as a scribe were not fully researched. Especially, the poems produced after he was sent into exile to Chongseong in Hamkyeong province were not discussed so well. This paper tries to clarify the characteristics and the orientation of creating works in the collection of poems in the period of his exile, which is called {Kyeongsindang hyeopdae(竟信堂夾袋)}. Pak Che-ga in this period still shows innovative elements on ideas and progressive aspects stressing individuality and seeking for a change in the theory of writing. He took the experience in the place of exile, Hamkyeong Province as a momentum to create a new poetic style. As a result, he highlighted the cultural environment and economic movement more than the simple scenery of nature, while writing poems about the town in Hamkyeong Province. Also, he described people's livelihood, pain and native customs in the area of Hamkyeong Province in a series of poems with a four line stanza, showing a peculiar poetical style. Pak Che-ga found out novel subject matters and created an unique poems depicting a scenic beauty of Hamkyeong Province. The analysis of these poems proves that {Kyeongsindang hyeopdae} written in the exile period was the product of his enthusiasm for the creation in his later years.
