기해예송과 1666년 영남남인의 상소 - 류원지, 홍여하, 류세철, 이현일의 상소문을 중심으로 -

Abstract

The group appeal in 1666 by the Confucian scholars of Yeongnam, where Ryu Se-chul was the So-du(疏頭), was an extension of the KihaeYesong and a joint expression of the group intelligence of 1,000 people from 23 towns in Yeongnam. Although the appeal did not achieve its purpose, it was an event that drew out the argument of Bok-je(服制), which had entered a period of silence, into the public discussion(公議) by the Toegye school. In addition, by being the issue that links Kihae and Kapin Yesong, its academic and political meaning and impact was not small. However, research on this subject has not yet been conducted. It is briefly mentioned in papers researching Hong Yeo-ha and Lee Hyun-il, but they did not discover the meaning of the group appeal or the characteristics of the appeal. Therefore, this paper will examine the process of the group appeal; the reasons and contents of each small text by Ryu Won-ji, Hong Yeo-ha, Lee Hyun-il, Ryu Se-chul etc.; and the connection with KihaeYesong and differences in its form of succession. This research is meaningful in that it is the first appeal to examine the issue which contains a lot of academic and political meaning, as well as in that it examines the difference that the Confucian scholars of Yeongnam showed in the succession process of the KihaeYesong. Furthermore, as Ryu Won-ji and Hong Yeo-ha, who represented the Toegye school at the time, and Lee Hyun-il, who would later grow to become the Choongheungjo of the Toegye school, all participated in this event, we can find clues to predict the academic and political changes that would occur in the Toegye school in the mid-to-late 17thcentury.
