ABSTRACT

This study aimed to analyze the record of reading shown in Heumyeong(Jan. 1775 ~ Dec. 1787), a diary of Yu Man-ju(1755~1788), who was from a family holding hereditary government posts in the capital, and aimed to seek the meaning of the bibliography by Yu Man-ju in comparison also with Mr. Hong's Reading List by Hong Seok-ju(1774~1842). When analyzing the components of the record of reading by Yu Man-ju through an examination of the record as a bibliography, the record is discovered to be composed of reading methods, book titles, the number of volumes, authors’ names, an indication of the role of the books, and details about bibliographical notes or the part abstracted by quoting the preface․epilogue. However, they are components when the record is detailed the most, and mostly, they are shown in a very simplified form, which includes several factors. The book comes in off the establishment of information, systems and configurations, the chanja preface, this collection is shown to have been a particular interest in the field is unknown. In comparison with Mr. Hong's Reading List by Hong Seok-ju, the bibliography of Yu Man-ju is lacking some aspects in terms of its system and contents relative to the bibliographical notes of Hong Seok-ju because it was not systematically compiled and had limitations at conception. However, regarding the classification system, the bibliography has the unique characteristics of Yu Man-ju in that it proposed an original set of 10 parts(Gyeong․Sa․Ja․Jib․Seo․Hwa․Bo․Ryu․Ji․Seol) in a system, differentiated from the existing 4-part classification, and contained a factor, namely, the quotation of a preface while using the traditional main book name entry rules. The bibliography of Yu Man-ju is neither systematic nor professional, but it may be evaluated to gain an outcome of its own. Such a performance confirms that contemporary bibliographical factors were already perceived during the later Joseon period, and this allows Yu Man-ju to be considered as an early bibliographer. In bibliographical history, bibliographical books compiled by an individual have led to Mr. Hong's Reading List by Hong Seok-ju after the Haedongmongnokchongnon The Introduction to the Haedong List), and the bibliography of Yu Man-ju is meaningful as this record existed in the form of a bibliographical notes prepared by an individual even in a slightly previous period to Mr. Hong's Reading List. Thus, the bibliography is anticipated to be utilized as data that will make up for the lineage of rough bibliographical books.
