태종대 가뭄 대처 양상에 드러난 유학적 사유― 『태종실록』의 가뭄 관련 기사와 재이관을 중심으로

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine an aspect of coping with drought during the reigns of king Taejong in the Joseon dynasty and confucian thoughts of it, focused on bizarre incidents regarding drought recorded in The Annals of the Kings Teajong. Through it, I identify how and how much zhuzixue is applied to the real problem. we can see that thought of zhuzixue actually restrains the society, if we examine that actual value of zhuzixue works on standard for determining in the process which deals with national crisis like drought. For the reason, I examine in time of the founding of the Joseon dynasty in this paper how much influence of zhuzixue is, focusing on records and thoughts for natural disaster about drought of weather information which is recognised as the domain of the heavens. To secure standard of this discussion, this paper compares understanding of natural disaster of zhuzixue and Dong zhongshu’s understanding of natural disaster of reprimand. In this paper I argue that principle “heaven” according to development of theory of LiGi differs from personal “heaven” which actually reprimand. On this foundation, the chapter 3 examines bizarre incidents and coping with them regarding drought during the reigns of king Taejong in the Joseon dynasty. Beginning the king himself previses drought, I arranged he holds a ritual for rain and series of process of Gu-Eon(求言). In chapter 4, I examined possibility of thoughts of zhuzixue which presented in this process. I identified even if Joseon dynasty had been founded in thoughts of zhuzixue, it had not departed from existing convention which had pursued supernatural powers about coping with drought through this discussion. Dong zhongshu’s understanding of natural disaster of reprimand made the mainstream, and when ritual for rain was held, shamanism and buddhist elements remained as it is. Merely, in the place that clues of thoughts of zhuzixue is shown, there is awareness which is reluctant to hold ritual for rain in buddhist temples or preaching scriptures of zhuzixue as it of buddhist and then anticipating supernatural powers. Therefore, zhuzixue of this time acts on national policies or systems, but does not act on important standard of judgment in the crisis.
