『해동역사(海東繹史)』를 통해 본 조선 사학자의 전겸익(錢謙益) 수용 양상

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the excerption from Qian Qianyi(錢謙益)'s works in Han Chi-yun(韓致奫)'s HaeDongyeoksa, and then to elaborate the intellectual's understanding and acceptance of Qian Qianyi in late Joseon Dynasty. Until now, the discussion on Qian Qianyi's influence on the literary world in late Joseon Dynasty mainly focuses on two aspects. One is about literary creation and criticism, and the other is about his disloyalty. However, through the investigation, it can be found that the intellectuals in late Joseon Dynasty also paid close attention to Qian Qianyi's historical achievements. Excerpts from Qian Qianyi's works in HaeDongyeoksa proved the positive acceptance of Qian's historical achievements by intellectual of the late Joseon Dynasty. Facts have proved that Qian Qianyi's anthologies and works were widely spread after they flowed into Joseon. Various versions and transcripts of his anthologies ChuXueJi(『初學集』) and YouXueJi(『有學集』) can be found in South Korean library institutions. Of course, we can also see the literature materials that re edited his articles and poems into volumes. The anthology of LieChao Poems(『列朝詩集』) and DuShi Annotation(『杜詩箋注』) were also circulated in South Korea. He compiled Gui and Qian's Letters(『歸錢尺牘』), which included letters and Format and Specification of Letters(『簡式類編』) also circulated in Joseon. Qian Qianyi's records about Joseon in ChuXueJi, YouXueJi, LieChao Poems and DuShi Annotation were included in Han Chi-yun's history book HaeDongyeoksa. Han Chi-yun accepted Qian Qianyi's poetic history. Therefore, he didn't only affirm the historical value of poetry works and poet's shot biography in the anthology of LieChao Poems, but also distinguished poetry works from poet's shot biography and included them in the Yeamunji(藝文志) and Inmulgo(人物考) in the HaeDongyeoksa. In the compilation of history books, when Han Chi-yun excerpted Qian Qianyi's works, he not only abided by certain trade-off standards, but also excluded some contents that were difficult to accept from the standpoint of Joseon. In the choice of historical materials, we can capture the unique selection criteria and flexibility of the compilers. From this point, we can also see the deep thinking of a historian at Joseon Dynasty. The biggest feature of Han Chi-yoon's acceptance of Qian Qianyi's scholarship is that he approached it academically from a historical point of view. Accepting poetic history, self-cultivating and systematizing it shows his ability and vision as a historian. Like other Joseon intellectuals, he did not discuss Qian Qianyi's life review and did not criticize or advocate. This seems to have been Han Chi-yoon's principle of trying to maintain only thorough academic acceptance without adding any subjective value judgment or artificial evaluation in the complex situation of accepting Qian Qianyi in the late Joseon Dynasty. This special aspect of acceptance shows the diversity of discussions related to Qian Qianyi in the late Joseon Dynasty and proves the dynamics of the development of intellectual history in the late Joseon Dynasty.
