조선 15세기 전반 경기도 영평현(永平縣)의 백자제작 배경과 특징 = Background and Characteristic of Manufacturing a White Porcelain in Yeongpyeonghyeon(永平縣) of Gyeonggi Province in the First Half of the 15th Century in Joseon

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study is the approach to a site of making a white porcelain in the early Joseon period, which had not been conventionally mentioned, and to a cause for being indicated the relationship of its local governor and a place name in a white porcelain, through introducing Yeongpyeong(永平)’ inscripted white porcelain that appeared newly. The making site of ‘Yeongpyeong(永平)’ inscripted white porcelain is Yeongpyeonghyeon(永 平縣) in Gyeonggi Province. Yeongpyeonghyeon in the first half of the 15th century was having deep correlation with royal family as a Gangmu field(講武場) of many kings in Joseon. There was a case that kings utilize Sagiso(沙器所) as the accommodation that will be used when staying in a region due to hunting. In those days, Yeongpyeonghyeon(永平縣) was situated extensive forests and mountains enough to be recognized as a hunting ground of royal family, thereby having been easy to secure firewood for baking porcelain(瓷器). At that time, Yeongpyeonghyeon(永平 縣) was available for obtaining white clay around and even for securing fuel and water. In the process of examining the background related to manufacturing a white porcelain in Yeongpyeonghyeon, the existence of a figure called Mingong(閔恭) can be grasped who was in charge widely of a local governor in the major white-porcelain manufacturing sites in the early Joseon period. As for Mingong(閔恭), the period that he passes through Namwon-busa(府使) and Gyeongsangdo governor while serving as Namwon-busa(府使) and Gyeongsangdo governor after going through Yeongpyeonghyeon-gam(永平縣監) is consistent with the one that the production of a white porcelain in two places had been made actively. Along with this, Gwangju in Gyeonggi Province and Yangu in Gangwon Province where other Yeo Heung Min family members related by marriage to Mingong had stayed as a local governor also produced a white porcelain in the early Joseon period. The production of a white porcelain in Gwangju of Gyeonggi Province, Yangu of Gangwondo Province, Namwon of Jeollado Province, and Goryeong & Sangju of Gyeongsangdo Province beginning from Yeongpyeonghyeon(永平縣) in Gyeonggi Province to which this study pays attention is judged to likely have kept deep correlation with a local governors from the Yeo Heung Min family. The local governors from the Yeo Heung Min family would strive to enhance the production of a white porcelain that royal family in Joseon had preferred in order to maintain the family that had been shrunken by purging the maternal relatives following king Taejong. Also, the white porcelain, which is marked only a place name like ‘Yeongpyeong(永平)’ inscripted white porcelain, is grasped to correspond to a case of directly delivering a porcelain to a capital city without going through the province to which the corresponding Gun and Hyeon(郡 縣) belong. The inference on the background that a place name is indicated in a bowl is confirmed even through correlation with Buncheong porcelains that are displayed a place name of having been produced in regions of Jeollado Province and Chungcheongdo Province.
