AB - This paper is to examine what Tak-yeong Kim Yilson ordinarily pursued by examining a ‘cuckoo(杜鵑)’ and a ‘qín(琴)’ appearing in his poetic literature, and to estimate which meaning such an examination has in understanding Tak-yeong.
For the result, it could be confirmed that a 'cuckoo' was Tak-yeong's own sympathy toward King Danjong(端宗) and that a cuckoo symbolizes the medium relating King Danjong as a lord and Tak-yeong as a retainer. At the same time, Tak-yeong recognizes a cuckoo as the incarnation of Danjong, or occasionally as Tak-yeong's own advocate, so that he redounds to the symboli느 of loyalty and righteousness.
Also, it could be confirmed that qín appearing in his literature took the special meaning since its production process, that Tak-yeong pursued Yáo-Shùn’s(堯舜) peaceful reign by qín, and that qín symbolizes asceticism within his understanding of the fact that qín(geum; 琴) and jìn(geum; 禁) have the same sino-korean pronunciation.
These were derived from the spirit of ‘contemporary without and tradition within(外今內古)’ which Tak-yeong ordinarily pursued, and the spirit was conclusively expressed as his will to realize justice in political reality by including Jo-ui-jemun(「弔義帝文」) of his teacher Kim Jongjik(金宗直) in Sacho(史草). However, such his audacity faced many obstacles in reality, and was wept away into the disaster of Mu-o-sahwa(戊午士禍).
This paper, though its boundary is limited into a cuckoo and a qín, attempts to attach the meaning into peeping the cross section of the literary pieces by Tak-yeong who had to finish his short 35-year life in the middle of those events. Indeed, it could be newly perceived that Tak-yeong's literature was not plain literature and that his literature should not be evaluated by the amount of his literary pieces.
While a lot of papers previously published were mostly written from historical perspectives, there were few examining Tak-yeong’s literary value and literary identity through his literature pieces. The meaning of this paper can be found here.
