≪華簡≫ 脫草 원문 및 校釋(Ⅱ) ― 第二十三信에서 第三十四信까지

Abstract

In the previous report, I introduced the original text and translation texts through a decoding of the first half of Hwagan(華簡), from the first letter to the twenty-second letter that composed of six sheets. This is a follow-up research paper on the second half of Hwagan, from the twenty-third letter to the thirty-fifth letter that five Qing Dynasty’s scholars—Cheng, Gong-shou(程恭壽), Wang, Zhon-gxi(汪重熙), Wen, Zhong-yan(溫忠彥), Wen, Zhong-shan(溫忠善), and Sun, Qi(孫楫) sent to Choson Dynasty's envoy, Pak, Hong-yang(朴弘陽) and the conversations by writing in January, 1855. Through a preliminary decoding of eleven sheets, an inquiry about the consensus, I investigate that these correspondences include a deep sadness of parting, an outpouring of their friendship for Pak, Hong-yang, a praise for Pak, Hong-yang' poetic accomplishments, a mutual exchange of paintings, calligraphic works, books, etc. Besides, I also investigate that the matters comprised in the conversations by writing include 4 impromptu verses by Qing Dynasty’s scholars, a string of questions and answers about traditional ancestral rituals and imperial examination at the time, etc. Finally, this paper wishes to provide an additory research method about envoy travel records of Pak, Hong-yang and several Qing Dynasty’s scholars in Korean and Chinese academic circle.
