조선후기 수선화의 유행과 쇠퇴

Abstract

There are concepts or social phenomena that can characterize social culture in the late Joseon Dynasty. Gyeonghyangboongi, Gyeonghwasajok, Jingyeong, Bukhak, Yeonheng, Byeok and Chi, and Ahoe. These concepts or phenomena occurred mainly in Gyeon, namely Doseong Hanyang. In the late Joseon Dynasty, the academic and economic gap in Gyeonghyang deepened, and the exchange of intellectuals based on Hanyang went beyond factions and schools, and thus diversified the subject of academic inquiry. In recent years, studies on their hobbies based on Gyeonghwasajok and scholarship based on Byeok and Chi have been actively developed, and the social and cultural history of the late Joseon Dynasty has expanded its scope and helped explain the multi-layered and three-dimensional history of the late Joseon Dynasty. One of the examples is Gyeonghwasajok’s hobby of flower appreciation. Among them, ‘Daffodil’ is a unique and unparalleled existence. In the late Joseon Dynasty, Gyeonghwasajok’s preference for daffodil, which is centered on Hanyang, has already been well described in previous research. However, there are some questions about the cultivation of daffodils in the late Joseon Dynasty. “Why did Gyeonghwasajok(Korean people in the Joseon Dynasty) obsess over the cultivation of daffodils varieties and constantly import them through Yeongheng?” And “When did such many daffodils disappear in our culture?” Moreover, if we look only at ‘Daffodil’ varieties, the wasteful and ostentatious aspects of Gyeonghwasajok are observed, whereas the accumulation of flower knowledge and its limitations are not clearly seen. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to grasp not only the background of Gyeonghwasajok’s particular interest in daffodils and the reason for continuous import of daffodils, unlike the previous imported flowers, but also thebackground of the disappeared daffodils from Korean people’s perception at one point. Through this process, it is possible to identify the hobby or ByeokChi phenomenon of ‘daffodils’ in the late ‘Joseon Dynasty’.
