Abstract

Seo, Kyung-deok(徐敬德, 1489~1546)'s Hwadamjip(花潭集) is the only Joseon collection of poetry included in The Four Treasuries[四庫全書] 別集類section. However, Park, Ji Won devaluated Seo, Kyung-deok's poems saying "nothing to see in his poem” and such comment about Hwadamjip as “many dialects(方音) of that nation are mixed in writings(多襍其國方音)” were also found in The Four Treasuries. Based on these, this study will consider the limitation of Joseon poem written in Chinese character-Hanshi(漢詩) whose writter learned Chinese as written language(文語) and will examine the reason why his Hanshi could contain in The Four Treasuries in spite of such limitation by analyzing the rhyme of Seo, Kyung-deok's poems. ‘The book for rhyme(韻書)’ was essential for writing Hanshi. In the Seo,Kyung-deok's period, Hongmujeongwun(洪武正韻) published in Ming dynasty, the reign of king 太祖and Pyungsuwun(平水韻) used by poets from Ming to Qing dynasty were practical book for rhyme, among these Seo, Kyung-deok selected Pyungsuwun. It can be known in Hwanghwajip that Heo, Jong(許琮) who lived in the same period also used Pyungsuwun in exchanging Hanshi with Ming envoys. By the way, when Seo Kyung-deok's ninety-six poems included in Hwadamseonsaengmunjip(花潭先生文集) are examined, wrong characters were found such as not following the rule of 平仄-selecting the different tones in which characters are pronounced in Chinese or having false of the rhyme, rhyme in so many poems.;he circulated in case of rhyme of 歌and 麻each of which is distinguished in Chinese pronunciation, but cannot be in Korean pronunciation and did not select right character not considering the three hight of pronunciation of 上․去․入in writing free verse(古體詩). Although Seo, Kyung-deok having not follow the rule of rhyme and rhythm, his poems were the only Joseon ones which could be contained in The Four Treasuries. Because by The Four Treasuries, China intended to show the fact that various foreign nations were being civilized by the emperor and the best important principle to select writings which can be included in The Four Treasuries was “consider one's talent, not one's writings.” Therefore, Seo, Kyung-deok's poems can be selected for The Four Treasuries.
