ABSTRACT

In this study, dualistic literature world for envoy travelogue of Youngho(永湖) Cho-Eom(趙曮) (1719-1777) was analyzed and its detailed contents were considered. As cherished thought for envoy mission as a leader of envoy, first, re-recognition for diplomatic protocol and an effort of establishing national dignity were observed. Youngho(永湖) recorded even minor diplomatic protocol in detail based on a value of 'preventing an act of insult against oneself' and 'establishing national dignity', changed diplomatic protocol for banquet of Japan so that drinking prohibition order(禁酒令) of Choseon(朝鮮) would be observed and emphasized rationale for criticism and change of credential delivery ceremony(傳命儀式). As a next step, Youngho(永湖) considered diplomatic response to be proper by recollecting 'old incident of war breakout by mulberry leaf dispute(爭桑의 故事)' right after the case. Resultantly, right from occurrence of the case to execution of Tsuzuki Denjo[鈴木傳藏], the criminal, the case was resolved relatively quickly but it did not spread to diplomatic problem between Choseon(朝鮮) and Japan. Finally, when observing the contents of emphasizing role and importance of interpreter by Youngho(永湖), Youngho(永湖) reconfirmed role and importance of an interpreter in a diplomacy through resolution process of Choi, Cheon-Jong(崔天宗) murder case, expressed concern over decline of Japanese interpreter and Japanology and suggested an alternative for solving such problem. As a cherished thought for envoy travel experience as an intellectual traveller, recognition and criticism of Japan by Youngho(永湖) based on Choseon Zhonghua Ideology(朝鮮中華主義) were observed. It seems that Youngho(永湖) exposed critical perspective by regulating Japanese custom, religion and study as uncivilized custom or heresy based on a viewpoint of Choseon Zhonghua Ideology(朝鮮中華主義) but he also read unnatural recognition of Japan against Choseon(朝鮮). As a next step, in acceptance will and objective recognition for Japanese culture, Youngho(永湖) showed positive concern and introduction will for new Japanese culture that may be helpful to the people of Choseon(朝鮮) by sticking to public welfare oriented merciful policy and this effect was confirmed by acceptance will of sweet potato propagation, water mill(水車), 'Jookbuin shaped tool(竹夫人樣子)'. In addition, he also showed a viewpoint of an objective and positive observer for bustling, well-arranged Japanese cities. Finally, in contents of exposing lyrical aesthetic sense while travelling magnificent Japanese scenery, Youngho(永湖) depicted such sense in detail and aroused excitement of Jangyu(壯遊) through positive exchange with colleagues. In addition, Youngho(永湖) exposed nostalgia by comparing landscape excellence of Japan with that of Choseon(朝鮮) as well.
