ABSTRACT

This study examined distinctive features of the relation between the text and the meaning of notes contained in the wooden printing blocks held by Korean Studies Advancement Center. The result shows that in some cases, the explanatory notes included in the wooden printing blocks gave an explanation of the contracted phrase in the text and in other cases, the headnotes were used to examine the appropriate usage of some characters or texts in question. In these wooden printing blocks, such characters which means a king as ‘sang(上)’, ‘seong(聖)’ or ‘wang(王)’ are marked on the upper side by one or two characters above other characters in the text. On the headnotes, the author’s thoughts and philosophy are provided as an explanatory notes with the mark “○”.
