Sin Kyong-jun's (1712-1781) Hunmin chongum unhae (The Rhymes and Explanations of the Proper Sounds for the Instruction of the People) is the prominent phonological work of explaining the essence of the Hangul, after Jeong In-ji's (1396-1478) Hunminjeongeum yehae (The Examples of the Proper Sounds for the Instruction of the People, 1446) and Choi Seok-jeong's (1646-1715) Kyongse hunmin chongum tosol (Illustration of the Proper Sounds for the Instruction of the People, 1678). Thus the paper aims to explore Sin's Hunmin chongum unhae by focusing on the perspective of the ''history of phonological philosophy,'' beyond the framework of ''history of phonology.'' Then, the researcher approaches the Hunmin chongum unhae within wider academic and historical threads of East Asia with the inquiries that follow: What are the motivation and purpose of Sin's annotation of Hunmin chongum unhae? How do we coordinate deng-yun xue, xing-li xue, and the Hunminjeongeum among them? How can we illustrate the design signification via table explanation? How can we design a rhyme table that contains both Korean phonology and Chinese phonology?
With the above questions, the paper attempts to achieve the goals below: from the micro perspective, the researcher explores how Sin interprets the design basis of the Hangul based on deng-yun xue and xing-li xue? How Sin edits the rhyme table to construct his ideal system of sounds. From the macro perspective, the researcher observes how the Chinese deng-yun xue was understood and reformed by the Korean scholars with the focus of phonological exchange between China and Korea in the eighteenth century. |
