도류 취편의 전통과 술가의 분리: 『진벌휘고속편』의 도류·술사 편제방식과 의미

Abstract

This paper is a study on the third and fifth volumes of Jinbeolhwigo󰠀sokpyeon, a recently discovered book on records of pre-modern Korean characters. This section contains considerable records of Taoists and various diviners. The purpose of the study is to clarify the uniqueness of the compilation system and derive academic significance from it. This book is a compilation of articles on characters from various previous literatures. Existing studies have focused on revealing literature data related to this book, and there have been quite good results. However, it was a problem that even documents that were not direct were indiscriminately listed. Therefore, through this study, a total inspection was conducted and additional investigations were also conducted. As a result, only the literature that the author of this book would have directly referenced was selected and organized. As a result, it was found that this book was created as a digest version while expanding the subject based on the previously published Haedong-ijeok. On the other hand, this book is a compilation of the characters by classification. This is unprecedented among books that collect articles about peoples. In this type of book, what kind of people are chosen and how people are classified shows the way the author perceives the world. Paying attention to this point, I identified the meaning of taoists and several diviners in independent categories. Taoists and several diviners were alienated from the traditional Confucian society, but the author of Jinbeolhwigosokpyeon treated them the same without discrimination from other characters. This is what the author of this book thinks these people are important beings in the world, acknowledging that they were forming an independent genealogy. It is also noteworthy that diviners, which have not been distinguished from taoists, were viewed as individual beings and their identity was recognized. This has academic significance in that it is one of the aspects that expands the perception of humans and the world in the cultural history of Korea in the 18th and 19th centuries.
