ABSTRACT

In this study, in order to clarify the unsystematic compilation and publication of books at the Hakbu in the period of Empire of Korea, I aimed to investigate the distinctive features and contents by comparing the record in old literature and with the existing original, and then by analyzing them in the form of bibliography. The summarized findings from this study are as follow; (1) The number of the books compiled /published was 63 types according to the findings until now. (2) It showed that the printing/compiling book in the Hakbu was differently carried out annually. (3) An 84.1% of the published books were printed by using printed edition, and Sinyeon printed edition was classified into 35 types of books, accounted for the most percentage among the printed books. (4) Most of books were bound in type of Thin-cover book using Hanji (Korean paper hand-made from mulberry trees). (5) The price of books was more expensive than that of contemporary books. As time goes by, the price of a book published becomes cheaper. (6) There were 6 types of translated books in the books compiled. As comprehensive study about compiled /published books at the Hakbu, this research will form the base of related research.
