Abstract

In this paper, I organized the current status of old books and documents held in the Suseong Choi family in Chuncheon and explored the value of these materials. In this family, materials related to Choi Jwa-hae (1738-1799), an outstanding Confucian scholar in the late Joseon Dynasty, and his son Choi Yoon-soo (1775-?) are delivered. In this paper, the list and main contents of 20 books and 24 documents were first organized. Next, the materials that are highly useful for research on Choi Jwa-hae and Chuncheon regional studies were explained. The value of these data is as follows. First, it is possible to comprehensively study the studies and literature of Choi Jwa-hae through data related to the life of Choi Jwa-hae. Second, the cultural history of Chuncheon in the first half of the 19th century can be illuminated through documents written by students of Chuncheon in 1803 and a collection of poetry compiled by Choi Yoon-soo in 1810. Third, the horizon of research on Chuncheon's regional studies, which was concentrated on Yujunggyo and Yoo In-seok around the 20th century, can be expanded by tracing back to Choi Jwa-hae around the 19th century and his writers. In conclusion, old books and documents held in the descendants of Choi Jwa-hae can contribute to the study of the history and culture of Chuncheon in the late Joseon Dynasty.
