조선 초기 고득종(1388~1452)의 시문과 서예 연구

Abstract

This study aims to highlight literary works of Ko Deuk-jong who was born in Jeju and left a significant legacy during the early Joseon Dynasty in calligraphy history. Even though Ko Deuk-jong’s calligraphy has the great importance, few studies about his works have been conducted. His calligraphy style was considered as no more than imitation of the Songxue Calligraphy Style as Prince Anpyong and Young Literateurs led the world of culture and art in and the Songxue Calligraphy Style dominated the early Joseon Dynasty. Ko got along with them while he remained unshakable in calligraphy style and literary works. Ko encourages readers to love people and serve country throughout the whole pages of Yeonggokyugo that was compiled by his descendants as a confucian scholar. He didn’t stick to the mainstream of the Songxue Calligraphy Style that is soft and gentle. Instead, he followed Wijingobeop style(popular during Wei and Qin Dynasty) that Zhao Mengfu advocated.It is assumed that Ko could overcome a disadvantage of location of Jeju, distant island from the mainland, thanks to high self-esteem and love toward Jeju people as a descendant of the governor of Tamna. Ko’s achievement of fragrant and powerful literary works was possible from his love toward people and nation and the philosophy of harmonization and righteousness. The Wijingobeop style was somewhat shadowed by the Songxue Calligraphy Style during the early Joseon Dynasty, but it was still one of the mainstream group. And Ko Deuk-jong led the Wijingobeop style. It is assumed that Ko’s style was handed down to Han Seok-bong and contributed to revival of Wang Xizhi’s style.
