李德懋의 『靑城雜記』 評語 硏究

Abstract

Chungsungjapgi, which coexists the literary works and critical comments, is a real criticism. The author of Chungsungjapgi is Seong Dae-Jung and it is comprised of three books and five volumes. The first book is comprised of Chweun, Jilun, Sungun, and the second and third books are only comprised of Sungun. The critical comments of Lee Deok-mu(1741~1793) are included in only the first book. Lee Deok-mu, in his early days, was thriving in the area of ​​creation and critical comments, and he was especially interested in critical comments. His critical comments were included in ChungJangKwanJunseo, and he also criticized in Jongbuksoseon, written by Park Ji-won, and Poongseokgohyeobjib, written by Seo Yu-gu. Looking at the chronological order, Lee Deok-mu criticized the texts of Jongbuksoseon, Poongseokgohyeobjib, and Chungsungjapgi at the age of thirty-one, Forty-eight, and fifty-one. In other words, Lee Deok-mu's critical comments on Chungsungjapgi was an extension of real critical comments through his whole life, and his last real critical comments. There are still the Lee Deok-mu's characteristic, shown in real criticism through his whole periods, in his critical comments on Chungsungjapgi. These critical comments play a crucial role in objectifying and firming Seong Dae-Jung's thoughts. Furthermore, his opinions often show the diversity of interpretation about historical events as presenting different opinions with Seong Dae-Jung's view. In addition, in the critical comments with quotations, we can see his special critical talent and combining ability. His sensuous critical remarks also showed his aesthetic consciousness that he expressed the perception of literary works in his peculiar ways. These points were consistent in Lee Deok-mu's real criticism. since the literary style of Chungsungjapgi is Pilgi(筆記), the critical comments on Chungsungjapgi are less literary and less individual rather than his previous real critical comments. However, there is still his characteristic expressing his aesthetic sense effectively. In other words, basically, Lee Deok-mu's real criticism aimed for presenting his own aesthetic sense and sensuous critical remarks that are all in Chungsungjapgi, Jongbuksoseon and Poongseokgohyeobjib. In other words, Lee Deok-mu' critical comments on Chungsungjapgi are meant to not only his last real critical comments but also his fundamental orientation and principles on literary critical comments.
