前後七子에 대한 許筠의 인식

Abstract

Heogyun is a figure who is much spot-lighted by the academic circles in relation to development in a literary theory of reactionism for Qianhouqizi(前後七子) in the Ming Dynasty. By the way, in terms of Heogyun’s attitude toward Qianhouqizi, the existing researches were being confronted the conflicting opinions. Those include the argument of the non-imitation of ancient style, which criticized Qianhouqizi, on one side, and the opinion of having been rather concentrated, not having criticized Qianhouqizi, on another side. Accordingly, in the wake of these contrary arguments, it examined how Heogyun’s perception and attitude toward Qianhouqizi was on earth. Heogyun’s comment related to Qianhouqizi is crossed evaluation and criticism on them. Heogyun criticized imitation of ancient style(擬古) in Qianhouqizi and stressed individuality, but highly rated even their performance and very liked them. Generally, given comparing literary people in the late Joseon period who proceeded with one side of criticism on Qianhouqizi, Heogyun’s this attitude seems to be very unique walking. Thus, Heogyun’s this attitude of both criticizing and liking Qianhouqizi is mirrored mostly with the looks of antinomy. However, Heogyun’s this image was just divided by the sight of researchers who perceived Qianhouqizi as imitation of ancient style(擬古), but is actually consistency of Heogyun himself. What Heogyun was opposed to imitation of ancient style in Qianhouqizi is clear. However, he judged that Qianhouqizi achieved high performance with native ability and excellent literary capability, thereby having taken the attitude of highly rating and accepting this matter. Heogyun was consistent in critical acceptance on Qianhouqizi.
