하빈 신후담의 경학사상 서설적 연구

Abstract

This study aims at making a rough approach at Seong‒ho School member Shin Hu‒dam(Pen name: Ha‒bin)’s view on Chinese classics on an isagogic level. This is the first attempt to depart from the past research oriented and focused at western views in order to arouse and broaden a new research area that is the idea of Chinese classics. It is the aspiration of the author that this study contributes to the contemplation of Shin Hu‒dam’s idea of Chinese classics from various aspects by collecting the historical records related to the classics excluding the data among his posthumous works that do not exist in the present or that have not been discovered, as far as the limitations may go. It is known that Shin Hu‒dam in his early days was infatuated by Laozi, the Hundred Schools of Thought, etc., which is peculiar considering his Confucian lineage. In his middle ages, he displays a duality in which although he understands Jeongju Classics studies through Da Xue(後說) and Golden Mean(後說) which are interpretations of Da Xue and Golden Mean, he partly criticizes Jeongju Classics studies. Also, a display of his duality can be observed in which he strongly criticizes Ming Dynasty’s Wang Yangming but accepts some parts of it. Meanwhile, his late ages are characterized by his departure from his pursuit of erudition and criticism of the Hundred Schools of Thought to his pursuit of pre‒Qin Dynasty classics using regular critical viewpoints on Jeongju Classics studies He argues that all school of thought other than the Confucian school derived from the original form of primordial Confucianism. Also, it is supposed that he did not adhere to Jeongju Classics studies uncritically in his pursuit of pre‒Qin Dynasty classics, but already began to employ a way of studying that applied self‒satisfactory interpretation.
