This study examines the characteristics, and educational significance of the Jeongsa Hwigam (正史彙鑑, An Anthology of Lessons from the Official Histories), which was compiled during the late Joseon period for the Ye-hak (睿學, The Education for Grand heir). Jeongsa Hwigam was compiled by Joseon high official and courtier Hong Bong-han (洪鳳漢, 1713-1778) with the aim of educating his maternal grandson, the Grand Heir Yi Seong (李祘, 1752–1800), in wisdom and virtue to prepare him for assuming his future responsibilities as Joseon king. Even prior to the compilation of the Jeongsa Hwigam, the Joseon dynasty already had a tradition of placing great emphasis on royal education. For this purpose, Joseon scholars had compiled various instructional texts starting from the earliest years of the dynasty. Jeongsa Hwigam represents a continuation of this tradition of compiling texts for the purpose of royal education.
