In this dissertation, we try to find out the iconization of Shijing(詩經). In order to have better understanding of Shijing(詩經), different analysis was done in the matter of the confucian classic side.
In ancient China, they had very old tradition of reading books in a specific way, which is called ‘Zuo Tu You Shu(左圖右書)’. This means that people would read books with the picture on the left side of the book, and the Chinese characters on the right side of the book. Because of this, iconography of the Shijing(詩經) varied after Late Eastern Han Dynasty period of time.
The Illustration of the Shijing(詩經) can be divided into two kinds depending on the characteristics of the picture. The first kind is practical paintings of all things, which depicts flowers, tree, fish, or regular things in the daily life, and the second kind is poetry-based-Paintings, which translate poem into drawing. However, in my dissertation, I argue that the illustration of the Shijing(詩經) can be divided into three kinds, and the last one is character paintings. all three of this pictures contributed to the interpretation and dissemination of the Shijing(詩經). However, specifically character paintings mostly highlighted the confucian classic side of the Shijing(詩經).
So far, illustration study of the Shijing(詩經) belittled the character paintings. This was because they had many letters, but few illustration that depicts the feature of the figure. However, if we look at the view of the letter studies, we need to pay more attention to the visual effect of the letter characters. That is because, visual aspects of letter characters can have enormous effect on the readers since they can incorporate more value beyond its own literal meaning of the letter.
漢文 敎科 敎育에서 經書의 經文은 많은 교육 내용을 포함하고 있다. 그러나 지금까지 경서 교육의 중요성에 비해 이에 관련된 연구는 많이 부족하였다. 필자 는 지금까지 교과서에 수록된 사서의 經文과 관련된 연구를 진행하던 중 몇 가지 큰 문제점을 발견하였다. 우선, 한문 교과서 경문 제시의 문제를 살펴보면, 첫째로 현재 중학교 1학년 교과서의 경서 단원 구성은 체계적이지 못했다. 경서 교육의 목표를 효율적으로 달성하기 위해서는 교과서의 단원들이 유기적으로 구성되어야 하고 교육 목표도 더욱 상세하게 진술해 주어야 할 것이다. 둘째, 懸吐․句讀의 제시 방법에 관한 구체적인 기준이 없는 문제를 확인할 수 있다. 이에 따라 한문 독해에서 懸吐․句讀의 제시방법에 대한 객관적 실험연구가 필요한 실정이다. 마지막으로 經文을 제시할 때 전체 경문을 제시하기보다는 대부분 斷章으로 제시하 고 있었다. 經文의 斷章이 잘못되었을 경우 經文의 의미를 제대로 파악할 수 없 는 문제가 발생한다. 즉, 효과적인 斷章에 대한 방안이 모색되어야 할 것이다. 다 음으로 한문 교과서 수록 경문의 난이도 문제이다. 현재 중학교 1학년에 수록된 사서 경문들은 겉으로 보이기는 쉬운 문장처럼 보이나 그 함의는 매우 깊다고 할 수 있다. 또한, 중학교 교과서의 수록 경문이나 고등학교 수록 경문의 차이는 극명 하게 나타나지는 않는다. 이는 사서 경문의 난이도에 대한 위계화가 이루어지지 못한 것이 가장 큰 이유이다. 따라서 객관적으로 경문의 수준을 위계화 하는 방안 이 필요하다. 이러한 문제점을 보다 체계적이고 객관적으로 접근하여 경서교육에 적용한다면 더욱 효과적인 교육이 이루어질 수 있을 것이라 기대한다.
This paper is a part of the study on the origin of literature that Mok-Eun pursued. The content of Chinese Classics of Confucianism are much found in Mok-Eun’s poems. Considering this fact, the study examines how Mok-Eun alludes and claims the content of Chiness Classics of Confucianism such as The Great Learning, The Analects of Confucius, The Works of Mencius, and The Right Path, and finds out characteristics of Mok-Eun’s poems through this examination. The following are the summary of the substance discussed in the study. Firstly, Mok-Eun alludes mostly Samkangryeong(three Confucius doctrines scholars should keep) from The Great Learning. This fact reveals the idealistic characteristics in his poems. Secondly, the book that Mok-Eun cites heavily is The Analects of Confucius. Especially he alludes much to An-Hoe’s historical event called Dan-pyo-nu-hang. This fact shows that Mok-Eun bore love of learning, contentment with poverty and delight in the Taoist way in spite of his high public position. Third, Mok-Eun cites chiefly Mencius’s political thought. exhausted energy, and theory that man has good spirit by nature. For example, Mok-Eun’s poem, ’27th Day’. is almost similar to a part of a chapter called Jinsimjang in The Works of Mencius in the content, not formal aspect. Forth. Mok-Eun made poems. understanding the history and content of The Right Path. Among the contents alluded from the book, he used very much the phrase called Yeonbieoyak(Tao is infinite and subtle). Though he could not see the subtle reason. he tried to explain the reason by giving shape to it. This reveals his pursuit for the philosophical reason in The Right Path. This Study can be considered only a draft because it examines Mok-Eun’s poetic thought only relating his poems to The Four Books of Ancient China. Therefore, it necessary to make close examination of the allusion from the whole Chinese Classics of Confucianism in Mok-Eun ‘s poems to understand clearly his literary thought. In addition, the study need include the advanced examination of the allusion from Chiness Classics of Confucianism in poems by Mok-Eun’s contemporaries to establish the history of Korean literature in Chinese character when Sung Confucianism was accepted in Korea. But the advanced examination will be carried out at the next study.
Now I’d like to abstract the statement as far and reach the conclusions by making clear the basic direction, of it’s characteristics, significance in the History of Korean Confucian Studies. Seong-Ho not only accepted the previous seience itself as private person 60 more years but also try to criticized the reality of politics, laying stress on the ratiinal innovation of real policies. He didn’t obey blindly ready-made congnition system, because of his objectified attitude for recognition of object, so he pursuited the rational congnition in accordance with reality. This attitude is a kind of characteristics and basic elements of his realistic development in Confucian studies. Therefore, I’d like to overview interpretation of Confucian classical canons which is basic element of his study. First, Seong-Ho emphasized that a man who studied the Confucianism ought to rearch for the original Confucianism with the attitude of throughout rearch for original understanding. If possible, as one want to study the classical canons of Confucianism, not only acquainted with the meaning of canons and supporting evidence, but also, not adhere to the previous interpretation. So it would be helful for researching the real problems. Seong-Ho insisted that scholia and prose poem never helful for real benefit, at same argument on Lee-Qi(理氣) would be more important things than any others. On this stand-point, it means that Confucian studies ought to return to the original Confucianism as a attitude for studing confucian canons. Second, Seong-Ho insisted that method for interpretation of Confucian canons would be more clear by means of historical research and meaning of worlds. This is cleary differentiated characteristic of Seong-Ho Confucian studies, compared with general way of thingking at that time which blindly followed the Zhu-Xi`s(朱喜) annotation. The other world, He made an effort to reinterpretated the classical canons, refered various theory, not depend on only one theory. Third, It was noted that the cardinal point of Seong-Ho’s studies was a means of manage and benefits for practical use, that is to say, ultimate goal in of Seong-Ho’s studies was benefit for pracrical use. I think characteristic of Lee-Yik’s view on the study of classical canons itself, rather consider it as a means of study, because his emphasise on the practical use and practice. This specific feature of Seong-Ho, Lee Yik’s was concreatly appeared in the Jil seu for the Four Books.
