일본의 조선 여성 도공 백파선

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to observe female potter Paik, Pa-Seon, a representative of Korean potters who were abducted and moved to Arita, Saga by Japanese soldiers during the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592. Historical data about her remain in inscriptions written in 『Hudeunggaeojeongonggi』, compiled around 1787, and in Paik, Pa-Seon Pagoda, which remained in Boeunsa, founded in 1705. The historical records showed; First, their hometown is Simhae, Korea; and secondly, the real names of Baek Paseon and her husband were not known; Third, her husband's Japanese name is Shintaro, and his Buddhist name is Cheonsiljongjeon; Fourth, their early pottery was not very skillful; Fifth, the post-mortem commandment of Baik, Pa-Seon is 「Manryomyotaedopa」; Sixth, her ears of the face were stretched to her shoulder, and there were traces of holes in her earrings, which is a feature of the appearance that suits aristocratic status. Based on these findings, Baek Pa-Seon and her husband were not potters but initially from aristocrats who have accumulated economic wealth, and they most likely must have learned their pottery in Japan. Nevertheless, her hometown is Gimhae Sangdong-myeon, the supreme supervisor, and her husband, Deep Sea Jong-jeon (Japanese name 深海 新 太 郞), is called Kim Tae-do of Kim Hae-Kim. The discourse that he was the teacher of Korean Potter, Shim, Dang-Gil in Kagoshima, and Lee, Sam-Pyeong in Arita pottery is far from the content of the historical records. It must be pointed out that this discourse was generated by immature research without deciphering the original data.
