Abstract

This thesis is a study on the life and the scholarship of HanWolDang(寒月堂) Kim Sang Jung(金商釘, 1852∼1954, he rein after refer to as HWD). He was born in noble family in HoSeo(湖西). His great-great-grandfather is HanGan KimHanRok and His great-grandfather is WolDam KimIlJu. They are a man of Nam Dang School. So they inherited with the spirit of the Nam Dang School by the tradition of the house. After the fall of the Korean Empire In 1910, He lived in the secluded countryside. Since his nation was failed, he was very sad. Therefor He was a hermit. And He almost did not come out of his house. A few years later, On December 19, 1918. He heard the news that Emperor GoJong(高宗, 1852~1919) died. After that, He fought against the illegal invaders of Japan. So as to resist invaders, He wrote in his blood and refused to pay taxes. So he spearheaded the resistance movement. HWD saw SamGang(三綱, the three basic principles in human relations) and OhSang(五常, the five constant virtues) to human great-ethics to be observed. He said, “In SamGang, The first is Chung(忠) and Hyo(孝). This is what we value the king and parents. And in OhSang, This is to emphasize that In(仁) and Eui(義).” He thought that is the basis of Humanity. Also he quote evidence the words of Confucius. Confucius said, “Sino culture(中華) will increase to defeat the barbarians(夷). This is Great ambitiousness of Spring and Autumn Annals(春秋).” Then he emphasizes the following. SunBi must keep GangSang(綱常, SamGang and OhSang). And SunBi must practice In Eui(仁義). Therefore, the background of the philosophical HWD is thoughts of Confucius, Mencius, Zhu Xi, UAm SongSiYeol, NamDang HanWonJin, HanGan KimHanRok etc. So, HWD Said, “If a Great-man(大丈夫) should focus on Justice to profit, the laws of nature to Success or failure, eternity to lifetime.” According to this academic background, HWD is thought that Great-ethical background to the exceptional civilization. It began in 4000 years have passed since Dan Gun(檀君) and Gi Ja(箕子). But the Japanese were invading these civilizednations of the Empire by force. So HWD thought it was very unfair this do it. So he set up in WiJungChukSaRon(衛正斥邪論) and BaiIlRon(排日論) based on JonYangRon(尊攘論). And he spear headed the anti-Japanese struggle. Continuing his academic ideals he should carry with pridere presenting the ethnic culture consciousness. It is JonWangYangYi(尊王攘夷) and DaeMyungEuiLi(大明義理). Therefor He was a pioneer practice prior to the country concerned and loving people. And He did not ever give in all kinds of repression and appeasement of Japan. He contributed greatly to finding a free and independent life of ethnic Koreans.
