ABSTRACT

This paper introduces the new manuscript Pyechu and summarizes the characteristic aspects of the work that were omitted when it was published from a manuscript to a woodblock version. At the 2023 exhibition of SuwonHwaseong museum, the manuscript of Chae Paengyun’s collection of works was revealed. The woodblock version Huiamjib is in 29 volumes, while the manuscript version PyeChu is in 18 volumes. Although the number of manuscripts is small, the number of works is greater than the woodblock version. The main trends in works deleted when published from manuscript to woodblock edition are as follows. First, many daily literary exchanges with in-laws were deleted. His literary activities were often carried out together with his father-in-law and brothers-in-law. Most of these works were deleted, and when published, they were included sporadically without any context. Because of this, the background of literary activities is not well understood. The manuscripts provide data to specifically understand the spatial context of his literary activities. Second, the aspects of friendship with the same party writers involved in Tagnam or Musinlan were deleted or reduced. Chae passed the civil exam the year of Gisahwangug occurred and was selected for the Dogseodang. Most of the writers who were selected at this time were writers who were classified as Tagnam. He had a deep relationship with them, and this friendship is evidenced by manuscripts. In the woodblock version, their friendship is greatly reduced. This meant that his grandson categorized his grandfather as an Cheongnam and reduced the level of interaction during the political situation during the reign of King Yeongjo. Third, Chae’s aspect to educate his young students with care and nurture them into national talents in the future has been reduced. He put effort into nurturing younger students in an unfavorable political situation after Gabsulhwangug. Among those students was Chae Jegong’s teacher Oh Gwangun. PyeChu contains Oh’s name from his childhood, and expresses the special affection Chae had for him as a son. In the woodblock version, the works about Oh and other young disciples are greatly reduced, and Oh also appears by name as an adult. Repetitive works on poetry learning and daily life were eliminated, and works related to Chae’s disciples were organized, focusing on Chae Jegong’s teacher Oh.
