AB - Gwancheonga(管天歌) is a Dohakgasa(道學歌辭). The purpose of Dohakgasa is to elucidate the principle of Choseon's Dohak and to educate the younger generation. The author, Jeon Huidae(全希大), wrote Gwancheonga based on the theory of Jeongjuseonglihak(程朱性理學). It is said that he was enlightened to the principle when he was 71. He wanted his enlightenment transferred to the future generation. Gwancheonga is anthologized in his 「Widangmunjip(韋堂文集)」.
Jeon Huijae studied theories of Taegeukdoseol(太極圖說), Myeongdoron(明道論), Igichongron(理氣總論) and Seonglijapseol(性理雜說). He made his understanding of the theories into songs. The songs were written with the tone of 4.4 and 4 foot syllabic scheme to be sung easily.
The author studied under Yeonjae(淵齋) Song Byeongseon(宋秉璿). He also corresponded with Myeonam(勉巖) Choi Ikhyeon(崔益鉉), Ganjae(艮齋) Jeon Woo(田愚) and governor Jeong Taehyeon(鄭泰鉉) about the theory of Dohak(道學). It can be easily inferred that there was a profound scholarly interchange between them.
The Introduction part praised the beginning of the universe - a united action of principle Ri(理) and energy Gi(氣) - from which ‘the whole world and the creation’ has ensued. Main part demonstrates how ‘the tradition of Chinese Dohak’ was received and developed in Choseon. As is the case with the other Gasa(歌辭) literature, the conclusion part encouraged future generations to learn and follow the truth of Dohak, to be able to make morally enlightened world.
Gwancheonga is characterized by its strick adherence to a tone of 4.4 of Gasa of the late Choseon Dynasty. The 4.4 tone is a variation of the typical 3.5.4.3 versification rule during the last phrase of Yangbangasa(兩班歌辭).
