AB - This dissertation aims to analyze the realm of literary noblemen's ink orchids(墨蘭畵) in Joseon period to a specific aspect that ink orchids were developed from Confucian viewpoint and consequently to clarify the essence of the ink orchids.
To lay the groundwork for the aforementioned research goals, the literature review covers ‘Orchid in the hidden valley(隱谷幽蘭) and Zhilan(芝蘭) stories of Confucius’ that serve as theoretical background of ink orchids. As Orchid in the hidden valley story is an important basis for ink orchids to be developed as Confucian art. Zhilanzhishi(芝蘭之室) and Zhilanshengshenlin(芝蘭生深林) show that Confucian likened fragrant zhilan(芝蘭, ganoderma lucidum and orchid) to ‘man of virtue(君子) with pure moral nature and honor’. Thus, the literature review demonstrates the ground that orchid symbolizes man of virtue and ink orchid becomes one of Four Gracious Plants(四君子, plum, orchid, chrysanthemum and bamboo), the Confucian art form, is derived from the two Zhilan stories.
Based on the findings from the literature review, this study analyze works of Kwon Donin(權敦仁, 1783-1859), Kim Jeonghee(金正喜, 1786-1856) and Yun Yonggu(尹用求, 1853-1939), Joseon literary noblemen who directly expressed Confucian ideas on ink orchids and the research result is as follows. The realm of literary noblemen's typical ink orchids from Confucian viewpoint is projection of self-discipline and educational meaning contained in Confucius' Yinguyoulan and Zhilan stories ― his teaching that “One should socialize with good-natured people like orchid scent, improve duties as human and cultivate virtues and keep integrity and loyalty in spite of any difficulties”. Also it is found that Joseon literary noblemen discussed ‘attitude and method for painting orchid’ in linkage with Confucian phrases which deepened development of ink orchids with roles to achieve moral training and self-discipline.
