ABSTRACT

This thesis researched that the memories of ‘Academic policy(文治)’ of Sejong(世宗) and Seongjong(成宗) Dynasty were firmly established in the consciousness of the bureaucrats in Jungjong(中宗) dynasty, and it became the main power for the promotion of academic and cultural policies of the time. As the group who experienced the former time’s cultural prime represented by Sejong and Seongjong, the bureaucrats in Jungjong dynasty(中宗代 官僚 文人) set the first goal to realize past politics in their own age. Looking at their literature materials, it can be seen that the reign of Sejong and Seongjong has been consistently mentioned as a splendid historical event, and its succession has been used as a political slogan. And it was not only a mere rhetoric, but also actively reflected in actual works, and played a key role in leading academic policies such as maintenance and publishing of books, human resource development. The political legacy of Sejong and Seongjong which had been the prime of the early Joseon Dynasty, was still maintaining its status as a name of ‘academic policy’ in Jungjong dynasty. Analyzing the values and actual policy of the bureaucrats in Jungjong dynasty in terms of ‘academic policy’ is meaningful in that it enables us to grasp the scholarship in a continuous context with the previous period. In addition, it will help to understand one side of the age spirit that has been running in their own way by giving stereoscopic vision to the activities of those who have been get a fairly flat interpretation under the name of ‘School of literature(詞章派)’.
