王安石의 「明妃曲」과 歐陽脩의 和答詩 考察

Abstract

Mingfeiqu of Wanganshi is the most marvelous, emotionally nurtured and fully imaginative poetry that is about Wangzhaojun. Among the past ancient Chinese poet’s works, Wangzhaojun is mostly described as a tragic character. And Han Yuandi is described as a kind emperor who is missing Sogun after being deceived but later realizing it. On the other hand, Moyanshou is described as the one who makes Sogun turn out to be the tragic character. Wanganshi’s poetry, therefore, is not following the original standard, but recreating Wangsogun by using the whole new concept and structure. That’s why he’d rather set Han Yuandi as the one who makes Sogun a tragic character. In contrast, Sogun’s Character is changed as a strong and powerful woman. The core of Qyanxiwu’s poetry that is to reply Mingfeiqu has got much deeper depth than Wanganshi’s. As he perceives, Han Yuandi causes himself misery that even makes his love in the palace fall down. And this is all because he has been cheated by an artist. Moreover, he claims that Han Yuandi is not capable of handling his own responsibilities, which leads the failure in protecting his people from being conquered by foreign power. Thus, he strongly criticizes Beisong-government by revealing Han Yuandi’s lame personality and incompetency.
