ABSTRACT

This article was written to investigate the effect of Su Dongpo on Jo Guimyoung's prose theory and works. Joe Guimyoung, a prose writer who worked in the first half of the 18th century, made a distinct achievement in theory and creation. His prose theory and works have been confirmed to be greatly influenced by Su Dongpo, a great writer of Chinese Song dynasty many times in his and others' writings. Particularly in the mid‐nineteenth century, the prose anthology, Dongmunjipseong edited by Song Baekok specially noted that Jo Guimyoung was influenced by Su Dongpo and gained great achievements in prose creation. Jo Guimyoung also wrote praises for the living attitude and works of Su Dongpo. The core of Joe Guimyoung's prose creation theory is Juuiron, which comes from the influence of Su Dongpo’s literary theory. 'Ui' is a term that refers to the entire contents of the work such as ideology, argument, and emotion, and Juuiron is a theory that it is indispensable to make 'Ui' concrete and clear in the creation of works as a preliminary task. Jo Guimyoung rejected falsehoods in both life and literary activities, and this resulted in Juuiron in literary creation theory. Juuiron was raised as a measure to solve the problems of creation in the literary world of Joseon at the time. However, there was an important value in Jo Guimyoung's distinctive theory in the prose history of the late Joseon. In the meantime, some of Jo Guimyoung's prose works were created by noticing Su Dongpo's important works. These works were built with the intention of developing the themes of Su Dongpo's original works and creating a new style. And these attempts can be mentioned as an example of Jo Guimyoung himself and Su Dongpo's theory, that is, Juuiron's attempt to realize in creation.
