Abstract

According to the distribution of Confucian scholars in Hadong (河東)-gun, Gyeongnam (慶南) by century, the 15th century has one, the 16th century has two, the 17th century has 7, the 18th century has two, the 19th century has 16, and the early 20th century has one. The period that indicates the highest rate is the 19th century, and the next is the 17th century. In Gyeongnam area, Nammyeong (南冥) School that transmits Nammyeong Jo Sik’s studies has played the initiative roles. And we can see that Confucian scholars in Hadong area are produced proportionally to Nammyeong School’s rise and decline. About their distribution by area, Okjong-myeon has produced the most Confucian scholars, that is, 21 out of total 29. The next is Bukcheon-myeon as six, and Geumnam-myeon and Yangbo-myeon have produced one each. Among these, Confucian scholars from Angye-ri, Okjong-myeon are 11, so they are more than half of the Confucian scholars from Okjong-myeon. And they take up one third of the entire Confucian scholars from Hadong-gun. Based on the statistic data, we can establish that the center of Hadong Confucianism is Okjong-myeon, and in that area, Angye-ri has formed the core area. According to the aspects of formation of academic lines, Nammyeong School has 11, Hanju (寒洲) Affiliation has four, Nosa (蘆沙) Affiliation has five, Seongho (星湖) Affiliation has three, Wooam (尤庵) Affiliation has one, Hwaseo (華西) Affiliation has one, and the rest are six. Thus, according to the distribution of schools in Hadong-gun, Nammyeong School and Namin lines occupy the majority, and the next highest are literary men of Nosa Affiliation. About the transmission of Nammyeong studies in Hadong area, we can come up with the fact that Jinyanghassi Sajikgongpa (晉陽河氏 司直公派) scholars from Angye Village did transmit it by family learning. And we can also point out that scholars like Ha Dal-hong, Jeong Woo-bin, Jo Seong-ga, Choi Sook-min, Gang Byeong-ju, or Jeong Don-gyun did respect and emulate Nammyeong and tried to practice it even though they were from different academic lines or factions.
