홍경래난에 대한 조선조 문인의 인식과 글쓰기 양상 고찰

Abstract

The Hong Gyeong-rae rebellion, which took place in the 11th year of King Sunjo (1811) of the late Chosŏn Dynasty, was an event that shocked the people of the time and beyond in many ways. Each member of society used the most effective methods possible to convey issues, express opinions, and record them. The ability to reconstruct the scale, progression, composition of command, suppression process, and outcomes of the rebellion is driven by the records left by those who directly experienced it. In this field of study, where facts must be sustained, these records were recognized as historical data to analyze the Hong Gyeong-rae rebellion, and even though they were expressed in various forms of writing, all writing related to the rebellion was placed under the collective name "Hong Gyeong-rae Nan historical records." Suppose the research has been an attempt to find the substance and influence of Hong Gyeong-rae's rebellion in history. In that case, it entails revealing how contemporary writers sought to convey their sentiments through literary expressions while documenting the rebellion. In essence, the objective is to capture the aspect where contemporary writers attempted to express their emotions through literary writing while documenting historical records. This approach enables a more accessible exploration of the Hong Gyeong-rae rebellion, which occurred in a distant location, in a manner accessible to contemporary audiences. This study examines the perceptions of the Hong Gyeong-rae rebellion of Chosŏn writers at the time and later through the data survey of the Korean classical comprehensive database, focusing on how writers expressed their perspectives on the rebellion and analyzing whether they shared universal and temporally specific understandings. In order to secure the legitimacy of sharing common sense, it was assumed that writers from all over the time who did not directly participate in the rebellion could receive information was Jo-bo(朝報). It was investigated from what style and perspective each of the information obtained in this way was described. This study represents a significant endeavor by analyzing the process of constructing the recognition system and how Chosŏn intellectuals before the modern era expressed their encounter with the historical event of the Hong Gyeong-rae rebellion through writing.
