조선 초 『목은집』 간행 과정과 정치적 변개 가능성

Abstract

In 『Mogeunsigo』, not a single poem remains spanning the 16 years from Mogeun’s age of 34 to 49, when Mogeun was the most active. In this paper, we compared Mogeun's Literary Collection that has been published so far and looked at the publication process to resolve the questions that had been raised. First, This study revealed that Mogeun created poetry during these 16 years. There is one poem, Gongbuklu(拱北樓) Eungjesi(應製詩) in Cheongju in 1362 that is not included in 『Mogeunsigo』, and Three poems were discovered. in Bak Ik(朴翊)'s 『Songeunjib』 whose date are not certain, but which are not included in 『Sigo』 Also, during this period, Mok-eun actively participated in Goryeo's diplomacy by consistently writing biǎojiānwén(表箋文), and maintained social relations by continuously writing kimun(記文) and Prefaces(序文). Considering these circumstances, we cannot help but conclude that it is not that he did not write poetry for 16 years, but that it was deleted for some reason. The reason why Mogeun's poetry, written over a period of 16 years, was deleted appears to have occurred in the process of organizing records related to King Taejo Yi Seong-gye after the founding of the Joseon Dynasty. In 1411, the Ming Dynasty's Chénliǎn (陳璉)'s epitaph of Mogeun began and caused fear in the Joseon Dynasty. In the epitaph record, contents related to Yi Seong-gye in the late Goryeo Dynasty were described from the perspective of Goryeo, and the mistakes of Yi Seong-gye, who caused the dynastic revolution, were pointed out. From the perspective of King Taejong of Joseon, he could not leave a record of facts about his father Taejo intact. Through this process, we were able to see that all the literary works containing the contents of the period when Yi Seong-gye was active in late Goryeo society before becoming king were modified or deleted. Therefore, it appears that Mok-eun's poetry was inevitably deleted in this situation. In the end, the form of the first edition of 『Mogeunjip』 would have been published in 70 volumes in the form of a collection without dividing poetry and prose into deviations, so it would have been in the form of 50 volumes of poetry and 20 volumes of prose, which included Prefaces (序文) by Kwon Geun (權近), Ha Ryun (河崙) and Lee Cheom (李詹). However, in the currently available Republished Book, Ha-ryun's preface deleted and has not passed down. The remaining two prefaces, <Haengjang(行狀)>, and Ha-ryun’s <Sindobimoung(神道碑銘)> were revised and remained. There was also <Epitaph(墓誌銘)> written by the Ming Dynasty’s Chénliǎn (陳璉), but it was not included in the first edition and was discarded.
