임진왜란 발발 직후 이순신의 전쟁 대응에 대한 검토-1차 출전 과정을 중심으로-

정해은 ( Chung Hae-eun ) 조선시대사학회 2017 朝鮮時代史學報 Vol.83 No.0

This study examined naval commander in chief of left Jeolla-do(全羅左道水軍節度使) Yi Sun-shin(李舜臣)’s first battle in the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592. It was at dawn on May 4 that Yi Sun-shin went to war for the first time to defeat Japanese troops. It was approximately three weeks after the outbreak of the invasion. This aroused controversy, at the time and later, on why Yi went to war late. Yi was informed of the invasion at the night of April 15, but he did not go to war immediately. This was because he was not allowed to leave the district under his jurisdiction without the king’s permission. Yi prepared for battle after receiving requests from the governor of Gyeongsang-do(慶尙道) and fourth royal secretary Min-jun. However, during the preparation four camps in Gyeongsang-do, which were supposed to help the troops of naval commander of left Jeolla-do left. In addition, naval commander in chief of right Jeolla-do(全羅右道水軍節度使) Yi Eok-gi(李億祺), who had promised to leave on April 30, did not show up until May 3. Finally, after accepting the recommendation from commanders under his command that he must no longer delay going to war, Yi went to war at dawn on May 4. Therefore, the argument that Yi intentionally delayed going to war is not truth. However, ostensibly Yi delayed going to war. This led people in his time to criticize him for not immediately going to war, though they recognized his achievements in the war. In the mid-17^th century, when Joseon created the atmosphere to admire Yi and his achievements, Yi’s strong determination was emphasized in relevant records. Therefore, records on Yi Sun-shin’s initial response to the invasion were changed from various perspectives and passed down rather than conveying truths.

“선한 참주”論과 태종 이방원

신철희(SHIN Chul-Hee) 한국정치학회 2014 한국정치학회보 Vol.48 No.1

조선의 태종 이방원과 같이 살인이나 폭력을 사용해서 불법으로 권력을 차지한 군주(참주)의 경우 그를 사로잡는 가장 중요한 과제는 자신의 과거 행적이 사익이 아니라 공익을 위해서 불가피한 선택이었다는 것을 증명하는 것이다. 그러나 자신의 본심을 타인에게 납득시키는 것은 쉬운 일이 아니며, 제3자가 판단하기도 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 서양정치사상의 전통 속에서 논의되어 온 ?선한? 또는 ?자애로운? 참주정 개념을 빌려와서 이방원과 같은 유형의 정치인을 평가하는 하나의 기준을 제시하고자 한다. 플라톤, 아리스토텔레스, 크세노폰으로부터 마키아벨리에 이르기까지 “선한” 참주정 논의의 핵심은 건국이나 개혁 국면에서 사용한 폭력이 사익이 아니라 공공선이 목적이었음을 이후에 권력을 분산시키고 선정을 베풂으로써 증명해야 한다는 것이다. 이것이 바로 결과로 말해야 하는 정치인의 숙명이다. The most impending task haunting the prince or tyrant who occupied the throne illegally by using murder or violence such as King Taejong (Yi Bang-won) of the Joseon Dynasty is to prove that his use of violence was not for his personal interests, but inevitable for fulfilling the common good. However, it is not an easy job for the prince to persuade people of his innocence and it is also difficult for bystanders to judge. Therefore I will suggest the concept of the ?good? or ?beneficent? tyranny which has been discussed in the tradition of Western political thought as a criterion for estimating the life of a politician like Yi Bang-won. The kernel of the good tyranny from Plato, Aristotle, Xenophon to Machiavelli is that there needs a tyrant in the foundation or reform of the commonwealth, and afterwards he should show his use of violence is for the common good by decentralizing his power and administrating the good government. And this is the fate of a politician who must tell with results.

義安大君 李和의 功臣歷에 대한 고찰

본 논문은 ‘여말 선초 의안대군 이화의 공신력’에 대한 고찰로서, 고려 말에서 조선 초기는 왕조의 폐망과 개국으로의 변화가 극심했던 시기로서 공신 의안대군 이화의 활동을 중심으로 공신력을 살펴 본 것이다. 여말선초 위화도 회군과 조선의 개국, 제1차, 제2차 왕자의 난으로 국내외적으로 위기 상황에서 이화는 결정적인 공을 세웠고 그것은 그가 여말선초 4대공신이라는 기록적인 의미로 남게 되었다. 고려의 멸망과 조선의 건국이라는 미명아래 많은 공신들이 탄생할 수밖에 없었고 공신도감을 설치하여 공신에 대한 업무를 관장하게 하였을 정도이다. 여말 선초의 최대 공신인 이화는 태조 이성계의 이복동생으로서 회군공신, 개국공신, 정사공신, 좌명공신 등 4대 공신에 책봉되며, 당대 최대의 특혜를 누린 인물이다. 그는 이성계의 최측근에서 여러 환난을 슬기롭게 극복하고 행동하는 왕족으로서 고려 말 조선 초기의 실제적 힘이 되었다. 그는 영삼사사를 지내고 마침내 영의정이 되었으나 그에 대한 연구는 거의 전무한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 의안대군 이화의 행적을 통해 여말선초의 공신에 대해 살펴보고, 공신에 대한 특혜와 공신의 위차 등에 대한 차이를 살펴보는데 의미가 있다고 하겠다. 이를 통해 우리 역사 속에 숨어 드러나지 않았던 태조 이성계의 이복동생 의안대군 이화에 대한 생애를 더듬어 보고, 왕족으로서 위기의 순간에 역동적인 행동을 통해 성리학으로 무장한 신흥사대부와 더불어 조선의 정통성 확립을 이룩한 이면의 무인정신을 찾을 수 있을 것이다. As a part of examination into vassals of merit from the late era of Goryeo Dynasty to the early era of Joseon Dynasty, this study sought to investigate history about vassals of merit primarily in terms of Euian Daegun Yi Hwa's meritorious activities during such period of transition where extreme changes occurred with collapse of former dynasty as well as foundation of new dynasty. Yi Hwa rendered his distinguished services even under critical situations - whether national or international - accompanied with troop withdrawal at Wihwado, foundation of Joseon dynasty and two prince revolts (1st and 2nd). And his services gave a historical implication that he was one of 4 great vassals of merit during such a period of transition in Korean history. Under the guise of Goryeo Dynasty's collapse and Joseon Dynasty's foundation, it was inevitable that there were many vassals of merit produced during this critical period, and royal family granted proper favors to those vassals with stipend for vassals of merit. In particular, Joseon Dynasty installed even a governmental office for vassals of merit to supervise general affairs about vassals of merit. It may be definitely to say that Euian Daegun Yi Hwa was the greatest vassal of merit during the period of transition from Goryeo to Joseon. He was a half-brother of Taejo Yi Seong-gye, the founder of Joseon Dynasty. Yi Hwa was invested as the vassal of 4 great merits in contribution to troop withdrawal, new dynasty foundation, affairs of state and assistance in making Yi Seong-gye the first king of Joseon dynasty, so he could enjoy the greatest favor granted by the governmental authority of his contemporary dynasty. Yi Hwa was a royal family member who stood nearest by Yi Seong-gye and got over a series of hardships wisely with bold actions, so he could play a role as real contributor to founding Joseon Dynasty after collapse of Goryeo Dynasty. According to historical documents, he took up Yeongsamsasa and was finally appointed as Yeong-euijeong, the prime minister of Joseon Dynasty, but there was very few studies focusing on his presence in the history. Therefore, this study has its implications in that it addresses the historical activities of Euian Daegun Yi Hwa to examine vassals of merit from the late era of Goryeo Dynasty to the early era of Joseon Dynasty, and determine any differences in special favors and order of ranks for the vassal of merit. Thus, it is expected that we will be able to explore the lifetime of Yi Hwa, a covered half-brother of Taejo Yi Seong-gye in Korean history, and will be able to examine Yi Hwa's dynamic actions as royal family at critical moments of historical transition, so that we may find out the military spirit of a vassal behind his meritorious contribution to establishing the legitimacy of Joseon Dynasty in collaboration with emerging gentry armed with the philosophy of Neo-confucianism.

조선 초 『목은집』 간행 과정과 정치적 변개 가능성

어강석(Kang-seok Eo) 포은학회 2024 포은학연구 Vol.33 No.-

목은 이색의 문집인 『목은집』에는 그가 가장 활발하게 활동하였던 34세부터 49세까지 16년 동안의 시가 한 편도 남아있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 그동안 간행되었던 목은의 문집들을 비교하고, 간행 과정을 살펴 그동안 제기되었던 의문들을 해결하고자 하였다. 먼저 목은은 이 16년 동안 시를 창작하였음을 밝혔다. 『목은시고』에 전하지 않는 1362년 청주 공북루 응제시가 1편 있으며, 그 외 박익의 『송은집』에도 연대가 확실하지 않으나 『시고』에 수록되지 않은 시가 3수 발견되었다. 또한 이 시기 목은은 꾸준하게 표전을 지어 고려의 외교에 적극 관여하였으며, 기문과 서문 등도 지속적으로 지으면서 사회관계를 유지하였다. 이러한 상황을 종합해 본다면 16년 동안 시를 쓰지 않은 것이 아니라, 어떠한 이유로 삭제되었다고 결론지을 수밖에 없다. 이처럼 16년 동안 지은 목은의 시가 삭제된 이유는 조선 건국 후 태조 이성계와 관련된 기록을 정리하는 과정에서 발생한 것으로 보인다. 1411년 명나라의 진연이 지은 목은의 묘지명이 발단이 되어 조선 조정을 두려움에 떨게 하였다. 묘지명의 기록에 고려말 이성계와 관련된 내용이 고려의 입장에서 서술되었으며, 역성혁명을 일으킨 이성계의 잘못을 지적하였던 것이다. 조선의 왕인 태종의 입장에서는 아버지 태조에 대한 사실기록을 그대로 남겨둘 수 없었다. 이러한 과정을 거치며 이성계가 왕이 되기 전 고려 말 사회에서 활동하였던 시기의 내용을 담고 있는 모든 문인들의 문집도 수정되거나 삭제된 모습을 볼 수 있었다. 따라서 목은의 시도 이와 같은 상황에서 자연스럽게 삭제되었던 것으로 보인다. 결국 『목은집』 초간본의 형태는 시와 문을 편차로 구분하지 않은 총집의 형태의 70권으로 간행되어 시 50권, 문 20권이었을 것이며, 여기에는 권근, 하륜, 이첨의 문집서문이 있었다. 그러나 현재 볼 수 있는 중간본에서 하륜의 것은 삭제되어 전하지 않는다. 나머지 두 개의 서문과 <행장>, 하륜이 지은 <신도비명>은 수정되어 남겨졌다. 명나라 문인 진연이 쓴 <묘지명>도 있었지만, 초간본에 수록되지 못하고 폐기되었다. 하지만 목은의 손자인 이맹균이 쓴 <비음기>에 <묘지명>의 일부분을 인용하여 그 핵심 내용은 남겨놓았다. In 『Mogeunsigo』, not a single poem remains spanning the 16 years from Mogeun’s age of 34 to 49, when Mogeun was the most active. In this paper, we compared Mogeun's Literary Collection that has been published so far and looked at the publication process to resolve the questions that had been raised. First, This study revealed that Mogeun created poetry during these 16 years. There is one poem, Gongbuklu(拱北樓) Eungjesi(應製詩) in Cheongju in 1362 that is not included in 『Mogeunsigo』, and Three poems were discovered. in Bak Ik(朴翊)'s 『Songeunjib』 whose date are not certain, but which are not included in 『Sigo』 Also, during this period, Mok-eun actively participated in Goryeo's diplomacy by consistently writing biǎojiānwén(表箋文), and maintained social relations by continuously writing kimun(記文) and Prefaces(序文). Considering these circumstances, we cannot help but conclude that it is not that he did not write poetry for 16 years, but that it was deleted for some reason. The reason why Mogeun's poetry, written over a period of 16 years, was deleted appears to have occurred in the process of organizing records related to King Taejo Yi Seong-gye after the founding of the Joseon Dynasty. In 1411, the Ming Dynasty's Chénliǎn (陳璉)'s epitaph of Mogeun began and caused fear in the Joseon Dynasty. In the epitaph record, contents related to Yi Seong-gye in the late Goryeo Dynasty were described from the perspective of Goryeo, and the mistakes of Yi Seong-gye, who caused the dynastic revolution, were pointed out. From the perspective of King Taejong of Joseon, he could not leave a record of facts about his father Taejo intact. Through this process, we were able to see that all the literary works containing the contents of the period when Yi Seong-gye was active in late Goryeo society before becoming king were modified or deleted. Therefore, it appears that Mok-eun's poetry was inevitably deleted in this situation. In the end, the form of the first edition of 『Mogeunjip』 would have been published in 70 volumes in the form of a collection without dividing poetry and prose into deviations, so it would have been in the form of 50 volumes of poetry and 20 volumes of prose, which included Prefaces (序文) by Kwon Geun (權近), Ha Ryun (河崙) and Lee Cheom (李詹). However, in the currently available Republished Book, Ha-ryun's preface deleted and has not passed down. The remaining two prefaces, <Haengjang(行狀)>, and Ha-ryun’s <Sindobimoung(神道碑銘)> were revised and remained. There was also <Epitaph(墓誌銘)> written by the Ming Dynasty’s Chénliǎn (陳璉), but it was not included in the first edition and was discarded.

정도전과 도통

박홍규(Park Hong Kyu) 한국동양정치사상사학회 2007 한국동양정치사상사연구 Vol.6 No.2

주자 이후 중국에서의 도통은 그의 문인인 황간ㆍ진순과, 조금 뒤의 위료옹ㆍ진덕수 둥에 의해 이어져, 원조에 들어 조복ㆍ허형ㆍ요추ㆍ오징 등으로전승되어 갔다. 한편 조선에서의 도통은 정몽주로부터 시작되어 길재ㆍ김숙자ㆍ김종직ㆍ김굉필ㆍ정여창ㆍ조광조로 이어진다는 것이 정설시 되어왔다. 본고에서는 도통에서 배제된 정도전에 주목한다. 정도전이 스스로 조선에서의 도통의 계승자이고자 했으며, 그와 동시대의 유학자들 또한 그것을 인정하고 있었다는 것을 상론할 것이며, 아울러 그가 도통에서 제외된 이유와 과정을 고찰하고자 한다. Since Zhuzi, Taotong in China had been descended primarily by his disciples Huang GanㆍChen Chun, later by Wei Liao-WengㆍZhen De-xiu. During Yuan dynasty, it was conveyed by Zhao Fu, Xu Heung, Yao Shu, Wu Cheng, and so on. In the mean time, it has been argued and accepted as a dominant view that Taotong in Chosun was initiated by Jeoung Mong-Ju and later succeeded by Gil Jae, Kim Suk-Ja, Kim Jong-Jik, Kim Goeng-Pil, Jeong Ye-Chang, and Jo Gwang-Jo in order. In this paper I focus on Jeong Do-Jeon who had been displaced from the tradition of Taotong in Chosun, by arguing that he wished to be the successor of Taotong in Chosun, and that many of the Confucian scholars of his time also admitted his endeavor. Through this paper, we will see reasons as well as processes in which he was excluded from the tradition of Taotong.

1960년대 『한국전쟁문학전집』 발간과 정전화 기획

이행미 ( Haeng-mi Lee ) 숙명여자대학교 한국어문화연구소 2018 한국어와 문화 Vol.24 No.-

이 글은 1960년대 전집 발간이 활발해진 상황과 문단과 사회문화적 차원에서 한국전쟁을 전면적으로 성찰하는 분위기 속에서 출간된 『한국전쟁문학전집』의 의미를 살펴보고자 했다. 한국문인협회에서 편한 『한국전쟁문학전집』은 ‘전쟁문학’이라는 주제를 중심으로 전집을 구성한다는 점에서 이색적인 시도로 여겨졌다. 이러한 기획에는 한국전쟁이라는 역사적 사건을 문학화 한 정전의 역할을 선도하고자 하는 한국문인협회의 의도가 내포되어 있었다. 이들은 전쟁문학 개념을 재해석하여 전후문학과 구분되는 의미를 규정하고, 기성문단으로 대변되는 이들의 전쟁문학을 정전화하고자 했다. 이는 현실 권력과의 유착 관계를 공고히 하려는 보수우익문단의 의도와 한국전쟁문학의 대표작이라는 위상을 전후세대의 전후문학에서 탈환하고자 했던 욕망이 투사된 것이었다. 그러나 한국문인협회의 이와 같은 시도는 그 과정에서 이미 모순을 내재했다. 전쟁문학을 재조명하려는 특집은 참여 필자들의 다양한 해석을 통해 되레 혼란을 낳았고, 신예 작가를 포괄하겠다는 야심은 전집을 통어하는 규범을 비판하는 작품을 수록하는 결과를 낳았다. 그러나 전집의 목적과 상치되는 이와 같은 작품은 새로운 세대가 새로운 관점에서 전쟁을 조망하고 있다는 점에서 주목을 요한다. 한국전쟁을 새롭게 서사적으로 구현하는 이러한 소설이야말로 역설적으로 이 전집을 의미 있게 한다. 이처럼 『한국전쟁문학전집』의 정전화 기획의 실패는, 한국전쟁이 특정 이념과 이해를 초월한 주제이며 지속적으로 다양한 차원에서의 문제제기와 문학적 형상화가 이루어져야 할 숙명적인 과제임을 상기시킨다. This paper examines the meaning of Korean War Literature Complete collection published in the late 1960s. This complete collection was published in a sociocultural atmosphere that reflects on the Korean War and the situation of the publication of various complete collection. This complete collection, which was published by the The Korean Writers Association, was regarded as an unusual attempt in that it referred to the theme of 'War literature'. The purpose of this complete collection contains the intention of The Korean Writers Association which desired their works to be a literary canon. They reinterpreted the concept of war literature and defined the meaning that distinguishes it from postwar literature, and tried to make their literature into canon. They also created this complete collection to achieve two objects. First, the editors of the conservative right-wing wanted to further solidify their relationship with the regime. Next, they sought to recapture the status of representative works of Korean War literature from postwar generations. However, such a plan by The Korean Writers Association has already had contradictions in the process. The special project, which was intended to rewrite the war literature, was rather confusing through the various interpretations and regulations of the writers. In addition, the ambitious inclusion of a new writer resulted in the inclusion of a work criticizing the norms that are passed through the complete collection. These works differ from the purpose of the complete collection. However, these works, written by the new generation according to a new perspective on the Korean War, is meaningful in this complete collection. This failure of canon formation by Korean War Literature Complete collection reminds us that the Korean War is a subject that transcends certain ideologies and understanding. Furthermore, it is a fateful task that requires constant problem making and literary formulation in various dimensions.
