ABSTRACT

This paper studies the records, existing studies and existing copies of Eojeonghongikjeonggongjugo which appears in King Jeongjo’s letters in order to throw light on the compiler and the compilation process. The paper also examines the records and existing copies of Sunjo Sillok and Naegak Illyeok and analyzes their publication and distribution with the aim of analyzing the processes of compilation, publication and distribution of Eojeonghongikjeonggongjugo in a systematic way. The results of the study as follows. Eojeonghongikjeonggongjugo is a book that collected Ik Jeong-gong Hong Bong-han (1713∼1778)’s petitions for King Yeongjo’s state affairs administration and Yeongjo’s answers to those petitions. In the 24th year of his reign, King Jeongjo along with Hong Nak-im imitated Zhu Xi’s Chukgongyusa by collecting Hong Bong-han’s yeondaejaeju and Yeongjo’s answers to them and compiling them into 35 books of 6 types, 59 categories and 1 separate edition. The compilers of this work were Jeongjo and Hong Nak-im. Hong Nak-im’s son Hong Chui-yong and Jeongo’s great-uncle Hong Yong-han participated in the process of compilation, and the translation of the written and spoken languages reflected the intentions of Queen Hyegyeonggung. Queen Jeongsun ordered the Naegak to publish Eojeonghongikjeonggongjugo on August 11 in the year 1800 when Sunjo ascended the throne, but the publication was postponed due to the opposition of the Byeokpa retainers on August 20 of the same year. It is estimated that another discussion for the publication took place after the 12th year of Sunjo’s reign, and that the Naegak released it in the jeongritype cast on March 6 in the 15the year of Sunjo’s reign. Eojeonghongikjeonggongjugo was distributed on March 6 in the 15th year of Sunjo’s reign (1815). The distributed editions were imprinted with the word ‘Kyujangjibo’ and printed in Baekmyunji with one edition each distributed to Ocheosago, Kyujanggak, Naegak, Okdang and Chunbang. A copy printed in baekji each was also given to 20 retainers including Wonimjaehak Yeonguijeong Ki Jae-chan. Some of the copies distributed at the time still exist. We can tell that the Gyu1146 edition was distributed to the Naegak because it is stamped with ‘Kyujangjibo’ and ‘Naegak.’ Similarly, the Gyu3915 edition is stamped with ‘Kyujangjibo’ with ‘Jeongjok’ in ink letters on the reverseside of the coverpage, while the Gyu 1924 edition is stamped with ‘Kyujangjibo’ with ‘Taebaek’ in ink letters on the reverse side of the coverpage, showing that they were distributed to Jeongjoksan Archives and Taebaeksan Archives respectively. The Gyu1173 edition is stamped with ‘Kyujangjibo’ and ‘Kyuseojinjeok’ showing that it was distributed to the Kyujanggak.
