This research had covered the esoteric Buddhism book Milgyodaejang vol.9, which has not been revealed to the public yet. As it was the first time being observed thoughtfully, it had been investigated via bibliographical standpoint. Accentuating on the correlation between the Tripitaka Koreana and Milgyodaejang vol.9 in comparative reviews, following facts were discovered;1. Milgyodaejang vol.9 was composed of 14 woodblocks, similar to shapes of butterfly wings. Each block was arranged in 30 lines and 15 letters per line. The content of the book was written in following order; Buddhist scripture, ordinal letter, the author, Siddham(悉曇) and Chinese transliteration. 2. This book is regarded as a part of Milgyodaejang series that were made of 90 volumes in Goryo Dynasty. According to records, 40 volumes of gold-written type were additionally added to Milgyodaejang series, as total of 130 volumes. However, the additional 40 volumes had not remained to the present. 3. The signature of engraver ‘Backyeodo(白如刀)’ was spotted in page 9 of Milgyodaejang vol.9, but not in Tripitaka Koreana. 4. Milgyodaejang vol.9 covers 141th letter to 150th letter in Tripitaka Koreana which are ‘Rey(賴), Geup(及), Sin(身) and Dae(大).’5. Comparing Siddam alphabets used in Milgyodaejang vol.9 and Tripitaka Koreana, some of the alphabets used in Milgyodaejang vol.9 were not included in Tripitaka Koreana, which implies that Milgyodaejang vol.9 was referenced by other books than Tripitaka Koreana. 6. Chinese alphabets were written in various ways; break-point mark, long or short sound marking, and intonation marking. Same patterns of alphabets were also found in OdaeJinun(五大眞言) written in Chosun dynasty. 7. Taking into account of the publication date of Tripitaka Koreana and records in Ikjaenango (益齋亂藁), the publication date of Milgyodaejang volume 9 is presumably around late 13c to early 14c. By identifying these following facts through bibliographical examination, the true worthiness of Milgyodaejang vol.9 has been unearthed.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the background of Daegak-Guksa Ueicheon’s collecting Jejong Gyojang and what influences his idea of teaching and learning had on the publication of Buddhist Scriptures in the Joseon Period. Major findings are as follows:First, in Chapter 2 ‘Background of Collecting Jejong Gyojang’, it is ascertained that ① the primary objective of Ueicheon was to integrate Jejong Gyojang into one integral set by gathering comprehensively various Buddhist scriptures and writings scattered all over the countries in East Asia, based on his idea of internationalism and universalism for Buddhist teaching and learning, and then ② the ultimate objective of his engraving and printing Jejong Gyojang was to compile and distribute the most complete collection of Tripitaka by adding Jejong Gyojang, the supplementary scriptures, to Jinbyeong Daejanggyeong(鎭兵大藏經: First Tripitaka Koreana), the original genuine Tripitaka, and then completing them as one integral set. Second, in Chapter 3, ‘Influence of Publishing Jejong Gyojang’, with a focus on Ueicheon’s idea of teaching and learning about Tripitaka, what influences his ideology had on the publication of Buddhist scriptures in the Joseon Period was discussed from a bibliographical viewpoint. As a result, it was confirmed that in various Korean Buddhist sectoral scriptures such as Hwaeom-gyeong(「華嚴經」), Beopwha-gyeong(「法華經」), Neungeom-gyeong(「楞嚴經」), Daeseung Gisin-ron(「大乘起信論」), Wongak-gyeong(「圓覺經」) and Geumgang-gyeong(「金剛經」), the style of publication was changed to add certain appropriate parts of commentaries to each paragraph of scriptural texts. Such change was ascertained to be what Ueicheon’s idea of teaching and learning about Tripitaka had a tremendous ideological impact on the publication of Korean Buddhist sectoral scriptures in the Joseon Period.

A Study of Im Yunjidang’s Preface to Parting “Baesongjoongshinamguiseo”

PDF

This paper studies Im Yunjidang’s newly-discovered preface to parting “Baesongjoongshinamguiseo” by looking over the life and academic works of Im Yunjidang and examining the bibliography and content of “Baesongjoongshinamguiseo” Im Yunjidang(任允摯堂, 1721-1793) was a female Neo-Confucian scholar in Yeongjo’s and Jeongjo’s reign of Joseon, whose academic origins lay in the late Joseon Yulgok faction’s branch of semiotics of cosmo-ontology, and whose teacher was her older brother Nokmun Im Seongju. The only remaining work by Im Yunjidang is a book in two volumes called the Yunjidangyugo(允摯堂遺稿) which means “Posthumous Works of Yunjidang.” “Baesongjoongshinamguiseo” is a preface to parting written for her second older brother Im Seongju, a writing not included in Yunjidangyugo which enables modern-day scholars to study her new literary form. The preface to parting describes the sadness of parting when her older brother Im Seongju left Sanho in Wonju, the home to which he relocated from Nokmun, Gongju from the sixth to tenth year of King Jeongjo’s reign (1782-1786). The writing is thought to have been composed in the tenth year of Jeongjo’s reign when her brother left, but seeing from the eight missing characters in the text, it is unknown whether it was delivered to Im Seongju. Im Yunjidang wrote it in her own hand while incorporating An Jin-kyeong, Jeo Suryang and Woo Sae-nam’s penmanship, producing clear and elegant writing. The writing can be divided into 7 paragraphs according to the content development. The framework of Im Yunjidang’s record is built on how Im Seongju relocated from Nokmun, Gongju to live in Sanho, Wonju from the sixth to tenth year of Jeongjo’s reign. It describes the joy of life that comes from loving and admiring him as her academic teacher and shows well the pain of parting, adding three wishes in the conclusion to specify her longings. This study will be used in the basic future studies of private records as well as in those of bibliography, record management, history and Korean language.

A Study on Cheonjamoon Jil(Ham)ho of the Gyungpae in Songgwangsa

Yoo Boo hyeon | 2014, (58) | pp.203~225 | number of Cited : 0

PDF

The study is that it newly examines the gyungpae in Songgwangsa on which Cheonjamoon jilho(hamho) has been inscribed by comparing with the Jaejojang and Chojojang jilho(hamho), Gaewonrok jilcha(hamcha) same like Georanjang jilho(hamho), and Gaewonrokyackchul jilho(hamho) same like some Daejanggyung in Kangnam. The abridged results are as the following. First, it is estimated that not merely is Cheonjamoon jilho(hamho) inscribed on the 13 gyungpaes in Songgwangsa, otherwise known as before, far less in terms of consistency with Jaejojang, but also is pretty rare the possibility it is Cheonjamoon jilho(hamho) in Chojojang. Only the two books, called kyungjeon, Abidalmapumryujokron and Shinhwayeomgyungron are accorded with the gyungpae in Songgwang Temple and Cheonjamoon jilho(hamho) in Jaejojang. For the reason, they are considered to be the gyunpae of Jaejojang for sure. Second, it is certain that the gyungpae of Songgwangsa is exactly not involved in Geranjang in the whole relation of it as before. Third, there has been any reference on the relations between Kangnamjang, Daejanggyung made in Kangnam, and the gyungpae in Songgwangsa. However, there is remarkable analysis in the paper: Daeseungabidalmajabjibron, Byulyeokjabahamgyung, Abidalmajibyeemoonjokron, and Daewonseongjojiwonbyunwerok and so on have nothing to do with Jaejojang and they are just in accord with Kangnamjang. Especially, Daewonsungjojiwonbyunweerok is first included in Jeoksajang(1216～1322) among all the Daejanggyung made of mokpanbon including Kangnamjang, and the Cheonjamoon jilho(hamho) of it is given in Jeoksajang at the very first, called ‘Ha(585)’. And it is right the jilho(hamho) of the gyungpae of Daewonsungjojiwonbyunweerok in Songgwangsa. Taken the such being the case, there is no doubt that the gyungpae of Daewonsungjojiwonbyunweerok in Songgwangsa which has the jilho(hamho) called ‘Ha(585)’ is attached in Jeoksajang Daewonsungjojiwonbyunweerok.

A Study on the Premodern Buddhist Documents in North Korea

LEE, Jong Su | 2014, (58) | pp.521~547 | number of Cited : 1

PDF

Since the Korean War, the information network of the premodern Buddhist documents in North Korea has been completely blocked, and therefore, nobody knew what kind of documents were kept in the country. But the present author recently discovered the List of Valuable Property of the Buddhist Temples in Joseon Korea (26 books in total, published in 1940 or thereabouts) and the Library Catalog of the Library of Kim Il-sung University (published in 1958) from the Central Library of Dongkuk University. The List of Valuable Property of the Buddhist Temples in Joseon Korea contains an inventory of property of 24 temples in the Japanese colonial period and 8 temples among them were located in today's North Korean territory. This study sorts out the premodern Buddhist documents from the list and analyzes the list of relevant documents of Kim Il-sung University to elucidate the significance and characteristics those documents have. The 8 temples in North Korean territory are temples of Yujeom, Payeop, Seongbul, Yeongmyeong, Beopheung, Bohyeon, Seokwang, and Gwiju. The documents kept in these temples and other temples annexed to them can be classified into three categories: Buddhist writings, wooden blocks, and temple histories. Most of the Buddhist writings in the list are the ones that are available in South Korea, but since the wooden blocks and temple histories are the only copies in existence, there are needs for a spot investigation in North Korea. Especially the royal writings by Kings of Joseon Korea, governmental documents, and temple history books have an important cultural significance. By securing the list of North Korean premodern Buddhist documents, this study also aims to construct a firm base of researches on the said documents, in case it became available to conduct such studies when the international political geography shifts. One day, two Koreas will have a better relationship and it would enable academic relations between them as well. Researchers from two Koreas will conduct a joint research on the premodern Buddhist documents in North Korea, and then this study could be a little help for them.
