덕촌 양득중의 가계와 추숭에 관한 연구

Abstract

Deokchon(德村) Yang Deuk-jung(梁得中) was an important figure in the field of Silhak(實學) and Yang-ming Studies(陽明學) in the late Joseon Dynasty. This article examined the household analysis of Yang Deuk-jung and the respect after his death. The current study reexamines his life and thoughts. First, he tried to find the basis for his life through family analysis of his ancestors, mother-in-law, wife-in-law, the marriage of his descendants, and the change of residence. In addition, in the process of finding the footsteps left behind after Deokchon died, the work of respect on the publication of books, archive of portraits, and the construction of tombstones was also considered by the descendants. Yang Paeng-son was a scholar who tried to realize an ideal society. His will is that literature and thought have been preserved since childhood. He learned through his family’s school, Sosimjae(小心齋). His great-grandfather Yang San-hyung and his great-grandfather Yang Beom-yong married major families in the Yeongam region and expanded their regional base. Ahn Bang-joon, Yang Deuk-jung’s great-great-grandfather, was a true Confucian scholar whose academic and prosperity were one. He succeeded Seong-hon’s academic tradition; and Yang Deuk-jung’s teacher, Yoon Jeung, was also mistreated by Seong-hon. The turning point of Yang Deuk-jung’s life was fulfilled by the death of his first wife and first teacher, Park Tae-cho. He is a scholar related to Yang-ming Studies. After remarrying with his second wife, Yun Jeung, his lifelong teacher, became a key student. He moved from the Yeong-am area to the Gong-ju area and added depth as a bureaucrat and scholar. His second son, Yang Soon-heum, among five sons, married the Kim Seo-gyeong family in Buan. In particular, it is noted that Kim Seo-kyung is a student of Ryu Hyeong-won, a famous scholar. The third son is Yang Soon-chae, who was adopted to the Boseong area. His maternal great-grandson, Yoon In-ki, published his book, Deokchonjib(德村集). In the course of a recent field study, I discovered 145 important documents related to Yang Deuk-jung. Urgent research is needed in the future. His portrait is kept in his hometown. He built a shrine to honor him. Tombstones are erected in his graveyard. Lee Kun-bang wrote in 1907, and Yang Shin-muk, a descendant, built it in 1917. Lee Kunbang is a Yang-ming scholar. Lee Kun-bang honored Yang Deuk-jung.
