『永言』(이근배본)의 三數大葉, 聳歌, 蔓橫의 성격

Abstract

YoungAn(『永言』), a compilation song book owned by Lee GeunBae(李根培), holds and organizes 572 songs. In 1809, YimBiGeoSa(林扉居士) compiled the songs and recorded in the YoungAn. Towards the latter half of YoungAn, there are oddities displayed in the content in contrast to the first half. One notable characteristic is the melodies of the songs in the latter half, which are following SamSakDaeYeop(三數大葉): there aren’t as many melodies as the first half. This paper discovered three key differences by comparing the songs in the latter half of YoungAn and related songbooks from the 18th century and 19th century. First, SamSakDaeYeop(三數大葉)’s compilation holds songs dated in the early 19th century. The SamSakDaeYeop organizes these songs in a way similar to that of the CheongGuYoungAn(靑丘永言), which was compiled by Kim ChunTak(金天澤) in the early 18th century. Second, YongGa(騷聳, 聳歌), which connects the BonGagok(本歌曲, very slow songs sung in the first part of GaGokChang) and SoGagok(小歌曲, relatively fast songs sung in the latter part of GaGokChang), experimented with various characteristics throughout the 18th century. YongGa within YoungAn compiled the appropriate songs for the early 19th-century. Third, SoGaGok(小歌曲) only has ManHoeing(蔓橫). However, in this compilation, the different versions of Nak(樂), Nong(弄) are recorded in ManHoeing. In addition, there are multiple screaming versions of this song. Like such, the different songs being organized under ManHoeing provides that ManHoeing, which was called the ManHoeingChungLyu(蔓橫淸類) in the early 18th-century, is not a song with a single melody, rather an indication of various songs with extended lyrics. As such, YoungAn’s SamSakDaeYeop, Yong Ga, ManHoeing demonstrates the characteristics of the early 19th century song compilation books. Furthermore, ManHoeing’s lyrics and melodies prove that there are screaming versions of this song that existed. YoungAn clearly illustrates GaGok’s characteristics influenced by trend and song preferences selected by the compiler.
