AB - This paper is the study of the compilation and publication of Gyeongguk Daejeon and of the first cast of gapinja type and other early editioms. The compilation of Gyeongguk Daejeon began with King Sejo attempting to create a code of law for future generations by revising, modifying numbers and interpreting the overly many departments and sections of law in the previous kings’ compilation and publication of Wonyukjeon, Sokyukjeon, Yukjeondeungrok and regal doctrines. Gichuk Daejeon, distributed on November 16 in the year Yejong became king (1469), was the first publication of Gyeongguk Daejeon. The edited editions of Gyeongguk Daejeon were carried out as Sinmyo Daejeon in the 1st year of Seongjong (1470) and as Gabo Daejeon in the 4th year of Seongjong’s reign (1473), while the complete edition Eulsa Daejeon was carried out in the 16th year of Seongjong’s reign (1485). Eulsa Daejeon follows the format of Chinese code of law The Rites of Zhou in being comprised of six codes. There is a total of 212 articles (目): 29 “Ijeon” articles, 29 “Hojeon” articles, 61 “Yejeon” articles, 51 “Byeongjeon” articles, 28 “Hyeongjeon” articles, and 14 “Gongjeon” articles. Compilation of the Eulsa Daejeon of the 16th year of Seongjong’s reign (1485) was led by the Gyojeongcheong, but no literary record remains of where it was published. However, the First Cast Type being in a printed book makes it probable that it was published in the Gyoseogwan or a typefoundry. The original edition of Eulsa Daejeon has the same form details as Sinmyo Daejeon which was printed and distributed in November in the 1st year of King Seongjong’s reign (1470) and followed in the first month of Seongjong’s second year (1471): the same sajudanbyeon ban-gwak of 25.5 × 17.2 ㎝; daeja 10-stanza 17-character; jussanghaeng; sangha-naehyang-heukeomi; and the First Cast Type. Volume 1 to Volume 3 of the First Supplement Cast of Gapinja Type of the annual Eulsa Daejeon from Jungjong’s to Myeongjong’s reign (1506-1567) is housed in the National Library of Korea, while Volume 5 to Volume 6 of the edition are in the Sung Am Archives of Classical Literature. The worn out large types in the First Supplement Cast of Gapinja Type have thinning strokes, sometimes bending, and some of the thinning strokes show unclear ink color. The newly formed large types of the First Supplement Cast of Gapinja Type have horizontal strokes and vertical strokes elongated and thus made bland, lessening the appearance of the pilsa type. In certain characters the horizontal strokes have been elongated, breaking the clear flow of the letter type. The Reprint of the First Cast of Gapinja Type based itself on the published edition in King Seongjong’s 16th year of reign, and was published from the 16th to the 25th year of King Seongjong’s reign (1486-1494). Volume 1 of Eulsa Daejeon is housed in the National Library of Korea. The large types in the Reprint of the First Cast of Gapinja Type resemble those of the First Cast of Gapinja Type in shape, but being as they are carved in wood the appearance of the pilsa type is blunted. In particular, the horizontal strokes, right-falling strokes and ending hook strokes appear as if they were carved with a knife. The results of this study will contribute as future basic (research) material in bibliography, history, and Korean studies.
