퇴계(退溪)의 건강증진 담론(談論) = General Edition : A Study of Dicourse on Toegye`s Health Promotion

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

As being not in good physical health during his lifetime, Toegye explored human health and well-being in depth and in various manners by himself, which can correspond to contemporary health promotion activities. The purpose of the study is to explore how Toegye overcame his illness, analyze processes of how he strived for maintaining and improving his health from discourse analysis perspectives, and compare his approaches to health with contemporary health promotion approaches. Health promotion activities from contemporary perspectives have focused on health determination factors that should be controlled in order to enhance health, whereas Toegye performed health promotion activities by focusing on the balance and harmony of physical, mental, and social health determination factors. From discourse analysis perspectives, contemporary health promotion approaches are similar to those performed by Toegye in that both approaches aim at promoting health and have similar health promotion processes. From modern nursing viewpoints, Toeqye’s health promotion approaches can shed new light on professional self-care programs with individualized health promotion activities.
