다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The goal of this paper is to clearify the history and character of Neo-Confucianism in late Koryo period through Sambong Chung Do Chun`s works which were written to criticize Buddhism. Since Sambong is the important person who refuted the thought of Buddhism and constructed the ideology of Chosun Dynasty with the theory of Neo-Confucianism. The following summarizes what we have shown in this paper. Neo-Confucianism in late Koryo period had put much emphasis on the pmctical side of it, consequently had not theoretically criticized on Buddhism. Mokun Lee Saek had started to investgate on the theoretical side of Neo-Confucianism. But he had not theoretically criticized on Buddhism, either. Poun Chung Mong Chu had criticized Buddhism in accordance with the theory of Neo-Confucianism. Although Sambong who theoretically criticized on Buddhism had learned by Mokun, there is no record in Sambon`s works that was influenced by him. Rather, his whole works show that he was definitely influenced by Poun. That Sambong was influenced by Poun, not by Mokun is one of the indicatives showing that his Neo-Confucianism was attached with the tendency of putting much emphasis on the theoretical side of it, rather than on the practical side of it. Therefore, we can say that Neo-Confucianism in late Koryo period began with the practical side of Neo-Confucianism inherited by Won Dynasty and gradually establi-shed the theoretical side of it started by Mokun and Poun. Since it was found out in this paper that there was a close relation between Poun and Sambong, the relation will provide a clue to understand Neo-Confucianism in the beginning of Chosun period.
