강원 지역 문인 연구 우정(憂亭) 김경직(金敬直)의 춘천(春川) 도포서원(道浦書院) 배향과 그 추숭 양상

Abstract

This thesis examines the life and activities of Kim Kyeong-jik(金敬直), one of the main characters of Chuncheon(春川) Doposeowon(道浦書院), and the aspects of worship for him. Kim Kyung-jik, a bureaucrat from Chuncheon, was not only widely known in the local community, but even as a person who was enshrined to the Doposeowon. But he has not received suffi cient attention due to the destruction of the seowon building and the absence ofdata. He passed the Jinsa(進士) exam in 1590 and Moongwa(文科) in 1610. But he returned to the company because of tyranny of Gwanghaegun(光海君), and re-entered the government and served in various positions after Injobanjeong(仁祖反正). He received attention as a representative of Chuncheon in that he had acquaintance with prominent fi gures of the time, and devoted his eff orts to nurturing local juniors. The direct factors that led Kim Kyeong-jik to be enshrined to Doposeowon can be divided into three main points. First of all, it can be pointed out that he obtained a solid position as a ‘teacher of the local community’ who retired to his hometown after serving the government and teaching his juniors. Next, he had a close relationship with Shin Heum(申欽), who was exiled to Chuncheon, and he was a member of the Pyeongsan Shin(平山申氏) family. And finally, it can be mentioned that he kept his loyalty by abandoning his post and hiding during the Gwanghae period. In particular, this third point not only acted as a main factor for the enshrinement of the Doposeowon, but also played a major role in imprinting his image as a ‘loyalist’ in the literary society. Th e actual fi guration work was led by the Song Si-yeol(宋時烈) and the Nohron(老論) figures. They extracted and expanded Kim Kyung-jik’s aspect of loyalty, and repeatedly emphasized it in their various works. As a result of these eff orts, Kim Kyung-jik was not only remembered as a ‘teacher of the local community’, but also gained national fame as a ‘hermit of the Gwanghae period’ who stood fi rm despite his turbulent times. The life, activities and aspects of worship of Kim Kyung-jik as described above, enable a more in-depth understanding of Doposeowon’s characters, and makes it possible to examine the process by which local writers were given national status through continuous memory work in the Joseon Dynasty
