Abstract

Jin Shi Yun Fu is a book that contains more than 120 kinds of epigraphs such as Han Jian, Yun Tai Bei, Shuo Wen Jie Zi. Jin Shi Yun Fu published by The Commercial Press, Ltd. of Taiwan in 1977, and it has been belonged in the Korea University Library. The National Record Heritage (http://www.heritage.go.kr) has been a treasure trove of Jin Shi Yun Fu (Treasure No. 592-2). The introductory remark mentioned that the Jin Shi Yun Fu is a Zhuan Shu dictionary gathered and compiled all the manuscripts in the old epigraph, and transcribed by Heo Mok who is a Confucian scholar of late Joseon dynasty. He was a disciple of Zheng Qiu when he was 23 years old (1543~1620) and respected the discipline of Li Huang (1501~1570). He learned about Li Huang from Zheng Qiu, served as successor of Li Huang, and delivered the Li Huang sudy to Li Yik (1681~1763). He was also an excellent calligrapher and was good at Zhuan Shu calligraphy. In 1642 when his age was 29 he began to live a secluded life in the Zi Feng Mount at Guang Zhou Woocheon, and had devoted himself to reading and writing. It was known that this book had been published by lithographic printing. This shows that Jin Shi Yun Fu was regarded as an important Zhuan Shu dictionary during the Joseon Dynasty. Because the Jin Shi Yun Fu was a very voluminous book, Heo Mok didn't transcribed all of the original contents. Instead, he transcribed some important and characteristic parts from the original version. In particular, the Heo Mok's domplied version of Jin Shi Yun Fu preserves much of the letters of Shang Sheng, which were missing from Jin Shi Yun Fu of the Taiwanese version. To date, the only research paper on the Jin Shi Yun Fu was published by Lin Wenhua as the dissertation of masters degree at the Fu Jian University in China in 2012. Guang Jin Shi Yun Fu is an enlarged edition of Jin Shi Yun Fu, and a small portion of the contents of Jin Shi Yun Fu can be seen through the Lin Wenhua's the dissertation. According to the Kang Mikyung's commented on the Kyujanggak collection of Guang Jin Shi Yun Fu, the collection is a rhyme dictionary written by Ren Shang Kui and Li Gen of Qing Dynasty. Ren Shangkui had the courtesy name of Zhu Chen and his home town was Putian. Li Gen had the courtesy name of A Ling or Yun Gen and his home town was Jinjiang. Their personal details reports were not known clearly up to now. Furthermore, the correct details about the Kyujanggak collection of Guang Jin Shi Yun Fu are not clear. Because the collection have missing some books and doesn't have preface, copyright information, and postface, it is very hard to identify the correct details of the collection. According to Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu, this book originally tried to emulated Zhu Shiwang's Jin Shi Yun Fu and excell it, the book have attached Chinese letter prefix of 'Guang' just before the original title. In this case, 'Guang' has the adjectival meanig of 'extensive', 'wide' or 'copious'. Accordingly, it can be clear that Guang Jin Shi Yun Fu is a extended version of the Zhu Shiwang's Jin Shi Yun Fu. This study focuses on the fact that the Heo Mok's transcription of the Jin Shi Yun Fu is the abstract of the original version of Jin Shi Yun Fu, and shows the characteristics of Heo Mok's transcription by the comparison of the two versions of the Jin Shi Yun Fu with the focus on the Heo Mok's transcription.
