조선후기 지방유생의 수학 형태 및 문과 응시 과정 분석 -『예안군읍지』과거조 수록 인물을 중심으로-

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the characteristics of the Mungwa(文科) examination process of local students in the late Joseon Dynasty, focusing on the people included in the 『Yean Eupji(禮安郡邑誌)』. The test-related information of the people included in the 『Yean Eupji(禮安郡邑誌)』 was organized to understand the overall characteristics of each era, and the status of the Mungwa examination was investigated, focusing on those who were found to have various test exam history during the Mungwa examination process. The research results are as follows. First, many students in the Yean Region have passed regular Mungwa and seem to go through the Mungwa examination process typically shown by local students, but it is difficult to set the typicality of local students by looking at detailed processes such as the passing of Sogwa(小科) or Sungkyunkwan Gwasi(成均館 課試) before taking the Mungwa exam. Second, through the process of taking the Mungwa examination of representative Yean Region students, some of them have been taking various Gwasi as students of national universities in the capital since the late 16th century. From the 18th to 19th centuries, they continued to take the Sungkyunkwan Gwasi to improve their skills, and they continued to challenge the Mungwa using the teacher they received from the Sungkyunkwan Gwasi. As a result, the process of taking the Mungwa examination of Yean region students suggests that it is necessary to examine the various tests taken during the examination process together rather than simply dividing the aspects shown in the Mungwa examination process of local students into regular and irregular tests.
