조선후기의 忠淸兵營 = The Headquaters in Chungcheong Province(忠淸兵營) during the Late Period of the Joseon Dynasty

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This thesis is to define the systems of the Chungcheong Provincial Army which have been relatively neglected in the study of the late period of the Joseon Dynasty. Recently, the study of the Army system of the late period of the Joseon Dynasty has been focused chiefly on the study of the central army. This is because the local magistrates had escaped before the king sought shelter during the Japanese invasion(壬辰倭亂) in Korea during 1592. The support of government to the local army was very poor because the peaceful period had been continuous for a long time. The upbringing of the local army which was mainly for protection against foreign invasion was neglected too. In the past, the study of the local anny was relatively poor, but nowadays studies of regional history are beginning to appear, and more study is now being carried out.
However, despite of the studied accomplishment of the late period of the Joseon Dynasty military system, the study of the Chungcheong Army is still, overall very poor. Even though there are some accomplishments in this field, most of all these had been carried out in brief. To meet the recent study trend, this thesis is to deal with the Chungcheong Army Headquarters during the late period of the Ioseon Dynasty, a field which has not been developed yet.
The Headquarters of the Chungcheong Army was original1y located in Haemi(海美) near the West Sea(西海) for defense of Japanese pirates(倭寇). After the Japanese invasion(壬辰倭亂) and Ch’ing(丙子胡亂), the importance of Cheongju(淸州) was emphasized as it was strategic post located at the intersection of Hoseo(湖西) and Youngnahm(嶺南) areas. As such the Headquarters moved to Cheongju(淸州) as it was judged advantageous for protecting the Capital from rebellion Accordingly, the official rank (poomgy e : 品階) of the Chungcheong army's supreme commander was raised and Sangdangsanseong(相黨山城) was attached to complement the Army. In the 41st year of Youngjo’s(英祖) reign, the total number of Chungcheong provincial soldiers was increased about 20,000 soldiers more than that of 20 years before. So the burden of the military duty was increased too. Due to this, a lot of abuse of the people's duty took place.
In this study, chronicles such as Joseonwangjosillok(朝鮮王朝實錄), Bibyeonsadeungrok(備邊司謄錄), and Seungjeongwonilgi(承政院日記), the town magazine including Sejongsillokjiriji(世宗實錄地理志), and the books which are preserved in Kyujanggak(奎章閣) are to be examined. The establishment, the structure, the formation, and the functional realities of the Chungcheong Army are to be dealt with based upon the military system of the J oseon dynasty and related studies.
This thesis is to analyze how the Chungcheong Provincial Army developed according to the political chaoses and economic changes. In the future, more and more historical materials should be revealed ; the case study of the local army system of the late period of Joseon dynasty should be continued ; and the work should achieve progress.
