困齋 鄭介淸 伸冤 양상 ―나주나씨 羅德明 형제의 상소를 중심으로―

Abstract

This article focuses on the background of Jeong Gae-cheong's death and the appeal of the Na Deok-myeong brothers, who took the initiative in the late 16th century and had political and ideological influence in Naju, Honam. When Jeong Gae-cheong hid at Yunamjeongsa Temple in Muan, Jeolla-do, he formed a student relationship with the Na Deok-myeong brothers as a teacher, and in 1582, Na Deok-jun established an academy in Daean-dong, Naju, and began full-fledged activities in Naju, where Dongin and Seoin coexist. After being recommended as the Order of Naju Hyanggyo that year, Jeong Gae-cheong was jealous of the Seoin forces by guiding the disciples of powerful scholars in Naju, and the conflict between Dongin and Seoin escalated as he was appointed as the director of Gyeonghyeonseowon Confucian Academy, Naju's first Confucian academy. Due to the outbreak of Gichukoksa in 1589, most of the dongins in Honam suffered in prison, and Jeong Gaecheong also became victims because of his close relationship with Jeong Yeo-rip and the description of the true Cheongdamseol of Donghanjeol. After the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592, the Na Deok-myeong brothers, who contributed to the war through righteous army activities, began to relieve the resentment of Jeong Gae-cheong as they restored their power. In addition, the appeals of Confucian scholars in Honam and Sungkyunkwan and the requests of officials in important positions in the country's learning time to relieve resentment, and in February 1625, the resentment was restored, but controversy continued until the early 18th century. Although Jeong Gae-cheong was poor from generation to generation, he was able to see how influential his studies and ideas were in Joseon society through a campaign to resolve resentment, and the writers who helped him were Naju's scholar family, Na Deok-myeong.
