ABSTRACT

During the oepiod of the early Chosŏn Dynasty, The battle formation training was established as a military training ritual called ‘Daeyeul’, and had two characteristics: military training and military ritual. In previous studies, one only aspect of military training rituals has been focused on military training or military rituals. This thesis aims to reveal the military historical implications by examining the changes of battle formation training of Deayeul established as military training rituals in the early Chosŏn. The Battle formation training in the early Chosŏn was organized as a military training ritual from the King Taejong's regime. At that time, the ritual process of Daeyeul followed Kaiyuan Rites, but training process was based on Jindobeop. The Jindobeop followed Jeong Do-jeon's military theory, which was succeeded Rites of Zhou. The task of establishing the Daeyeul as a military training ritual at the Sejong's regime was to unify the ritual process of Kaiyuan Rites with the Rites of Zhou. For the purpose, Gyechukjinseol was published and it was possible to establish Daeyeul as the ideal training ritual in Chosŏn. After that, the training methods of the military training rituals of Chosŏn began to change. Ideological and the formal training methods were problems and tried to improve it. New training methods were attempted through Yeulmu, Sŭbjin. At first Military books of Chosŏn was just reorganizing the contents of Chinese military studies, but OwiJinbeop, an independent military training methods were created. The training types in OwiJinbeop was practical and concrete training that changed from ideological and formal training.
