규장각 소장 易學 관련 도서의 현황과 의미

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine I-ching(易學) related books housed in Kyujanggak and to identify its development aspects in the history of I-ching in Joseon era focusing on the catalogue of book collection and bibliographical notes of Kyujanggak. I-ching related books housed in Kyujanggak are about 80 classifications including 37 classifications from Korea and 38 classifications from China, which is small in scale contrary to the expectations. Of 37 classifications from Korea, those written by Korean scholars are 26. The rest 11 classifications from Korea are originally written by Chinese scholars and republished in Korea, most of which are written by Cheng‐Yi and Zhuxi centered on Jeongju (程朱) I-ching (易學). It can be confirmed by the fact that Zhouyizhuanyi (周易傳義大全), a single volume edited by Huguang in Ming from the combination of Cheng‐Yi’s Yizhuan (易傳) and Zhuxi’s Zhouyi Benyi (周易本義) is the majority of I-ching related books housed in Kyujanggak in this study. 38 classifications from China are mostly written by scholars in Qing era. Though some of them are written before Qing, the period of publications is still in Qing era. Of I-ching related books from China, the largest number of their publications is Zhuxi’s Zhouyi Benyi (周易本義) named as Gambonyeokgyeong (監本易經). In consideration of the fact that the publication year of Gambonyeokgyeong is 1886, there is difficulty in identifying regular trend of I-ching related books in the late Joseon through this book. One of the characteristic features in I-ching related books from China is the fact that there are three classifications written by Lai Zhide (來知德). Lai Zhide together with Mao Qiling are the scholars who affected significantly the I-ching (易學) world in the late Joseon, and it can be of some interest to see there are a few works written by Lai Zhide while there are no I-ching related works written by Mao Qiling. Through this study, we managed to draw a layout on the size and content of I-ching related books housed in Kyujanggak. However, since this study is only limited to independent volumes related with I-ching housed in Kyujanggak, there is a given limitation in this study. To get a comprehensive understanding of the history of I-ching in Joseon era, it is necessary to do the research in depth of the history of I-ching in Joseon as well as to examine I-ching related works printed in individual collections housed in Kyujanggak in the future.
