AB - This is a study on the purpose of the publication of Gyeongseojeongeum in the Gyujanggak collection as well as its biographical and linguistic characteristics. The results of the research are summarized as follows.
First, Chapter 2 surveys the significance of the test texts and the Confucian classics which were used in the Sino-Korean studies as a category for the translator program. The purpose of Gyeongseojeongeum was to make sure that ① examinees effectively pronounce words when reading the Confucian classics for the contests and that ② the relevant officials correctly pronounce the sounds of the words in the Confucian classics and thereby ensure their effective communication during diplomatic exchanges with China. Since its early days, the Joseon Dynasty was continuously interested in making correct pronunciations about the Confucian classics, which led the publication of Gyeongseojeongeum during King Yeongjo’s reign and then to a reprint during King Jeongjo’s reign. It lets it be known for the first time that Juyeokjeongeum in particular had its first edition made by translator Kim Ik-seo in 1800.
Second, Chapter 3 summarizes the current status of Gyeongseojeongeum in the Gyujanggak collection. The three copies in the Gyujanggak collection are bound under the name of Gyeongseojeongeum, and the movable type printing and the woodblock printing editions are also available in the collection.
Third, Chapter 4 surveys the Korean transliteration that describes the sounds of the Chinese words but fails to reflect the actual pronunciation of the Chinese words, which is it original purpose, as not only the left sounds but the right sounds almost faithfully follow the Korean transliteration system which was established in Hongmujeonghunyeokhun (1455).
