AB - This study introduces and examines the bibliographical and textual features of the handwritten Korean manuscript 「Eonmunhon ganggyusik」, identified at the Hamilton Library of the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. The manuscript is presumed to have been written in 1908 and represents a type of Korean epistolary manual that shares certain characteristics with the widely circulated woodblock editions 「Eongandok」 and 「Jeungboeongandok」. What distinguishes this manuscript is its exclusive focus on the formats of letters exchanged between the two families during the wedding rites. The manual presents the structure of correspondence exchanged during the ‘chohaeng’(first visit) and ‘jaehaeng’(second visit), primarily in the sequence of ‘letter from the bride’s side – reply from the groom’s side’ and, in several cases, condenses repetitive contents to provide streamlined templates. These features reveal that, although epistolary manuals were disseminated as standardized printed editions, they were also adapted in practical contexts according to contemporary needs.
Moreover, Eonmunhonganggyusik holds significant value as a historical source, illuminating women’s actual participation in wedding rituals, their agency as writers of Korean letters, and traces of everyday cultural practices at the time.
