국호와 건국멸망연대로 살펴본『제왕운기』의 역사계승의식

Jewangungi indicated a view regarding the founding year of Goguryeo and the year of founding and destruction of Balhae that differed from the general opinion. The main text of Jewangungi dates the foundation of Goguryeo as 37 B.C., but the footnote in the Chapter Baekje shows the founding date of Goguryeo to be 107 B.C. This article is focused on the significance of the date of 107 B.C. The founding date of Goguryeo in 107 B.C. is only one year from the year of 108 B.C. when Gojoseon was destroyed, which means that Goguryeo was founded immediately after the fall of Gojoseon. The fall of Gojoseon is sometimes regarded as 107 B.C., but in this case, the year of the fall of Gojoseon and the year of the founding of Goguryeo are the same. The founding of Parhae was seen as 684, not 698. In the case of Balhae, there is only a 20-year gap between the fall of Goguryeo in 668. Jewangungi moved up the founding dates of Goguryeo and Balhae, and as a result, it narrowed the gap between Gojoseon and Goguryeo, and between Goguryeo and Balhae, thereby emphasizing the sense of historical succession between the two countries. The date of the fall of Parhae is generally considered to be 926 based on Yosa but Korean records such as Jewangungi and Goryeosa specify the year as 925. These texts seem to have emphasized the year 925 when Parhae returned to Goryeo rather than the year 926 when Parhae was destroyed by the Liao Dynasty. Jewangungi also emphasized the succession of country names. By referring to Gungye’s Goryeo as “later Goryeo” rather than “later Goguryeo”, the text makes known that there was a “earlier Goryeo” before Gungye’s later Goryeo. However, Jewangungi did not refer to Goguryeo as “pre-Goryeo”. However, it was reported that Goguryeo changed the name of the country to Goryeo, which was used by Gungye and Wang Geon. Whereas Samguksagi hides the founding of Goryeo by Gungye and sees the sequence as “Goguryeo-Majin [Taebong] - Goryeo”, Jewangungi shows the development process of the country name from Goguryeo to Later Goryeo and finally Goryeo, to make evident that “Goryeo” was the country name that was steadily inherited. 『제왕운기』는 고구려 건국연대, 발해의 건국연대와 멸망연대를 일반적인 통설과 달리 보았다. 『제왕운기』 본문에서는 고구려의 건국을 기원전 37년으로 보았지만 『제왕운기』 백제기의 각주에서는 고구려 건국을 기원전 107년으로 보았다. 이 글은 바로 기원전 107년에 주목한 글이다. 고구려 건국 기원전 107년은 고조선이 멸망한 기원전 108년과 1년 차이다. 고조선 멸망 후 고구려가 바로 이어서 건국했음을 알 수 있다. 고조선 멸망을 기원전 107년으로 보기도 하는데, 이 경우 고조선의 멸망연대와 고구려의 건국연대는 같게 된다. 발해의 건국은 698년이 아닌 684년으로 보았다. 발해의 멸망연대는 일반적으로 『요사』에 근거해 926년으로 보고 있지만 『제왕운기』와 『고려사』 등 우리 측 기록은 925년으로 보고 있다. 발해 건국은 668년 고구려 멸망과 20년 차이 밖에 나지 않는다. 『제왕운기』는 기존의 고구려 건국과 발해의 건국 연대를 앞당겼는데 결과적으로 앞 나라인 고조선과 고구려의 간극, 고구려와 발해의 간극을 좁혀 두 나라 사이의 역사계승의식을 보다 높여 주었다. 『제왕운기』는 국호의 계승성도 강조하였다. 궁예의 고려를 ‘후고구려’가 아닌 ‘후고려’라고 함으로써 궁예의 후고려에 앞서 ‘전고려’가 있었음을 알려주었다. 그렇다고 고구려를 ‘전고려’라 부르지는 않았다. 하지만 고구려가 고려로 나라이름을 바꾸었고, 고구려가 바꾼 나라이름 고려를 궁예가 사용했고, 왕건이 또 사용했음을 알려주었다. 『삼국사기』에서 궁예의 고려 건국을 숨기고 ‘고구려-마진[태봉]-고려’로 보았다면 『제왕운기』는 고구려-후고려-고려로의 국호 전개과정으로 보여줌으로써 ‘고려’란 국호가 면면히 계승되었음을 보여주었다.

일반논문 : 의안대군이화(義安大君李和)의 공신력(功臣歷)에 대한 고찰

천성래 ( Seong Rai Cheon ) 한서대학교 동양고전연구소 2014 동방학 Vol.30 No.-

본 논문은 "여말 선초 의안대군 이화의 공신력"에 대한 고찰로서, 고려 말에서 조선 초기는 왕조의 폐망과 개국으로의 변화가 극심했던 시기로서 공신 의안대군 이화의 활동을 중심으로 공신력을 살펴 본 것이다. 여말선초 위화도 회군과 조선의 개국, 제1차, 제2차 왕자의 난으로 국내외적으로 위기 상황에서 이화는 결정적인 공을 세웠고 그것은 그가 여말선초 4대공신이라는 기록적인 의미로 남게 되었다. 고려의 멸망과 조선의 건국이라는 미명아래 많은 공신들이 탄생할 수밖에 없었고 공신도감을 설치하여 공신에 대한 업무를 관장하게 하였을 정도이다. 여말 선초의 최대 공신인 이화는 태조 이성계의 이복동생으로서 회군공신, 개국공신, 정사공신, 좌명공신 등 4대 공신에 책봉되며, 당대 최대의 특혜를 누린 인물이다. 그는 이성계의 최측근에서 여러 환난을 슬기롭게 극복하고 행동하는 왕족으로서 고려 말 조선 초기의 실제적 힘이 되었다. 그는 영삼사사를 지내고 마침내 영의정이 되었으나 그에 대한연구는 거의 전무한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 의안대군 이화의 행적을 통해 여말선초의 공신에 대해 살펴보고, 공신에 대한 특혜와 공신의 위차 등에 대한 차이를 살펴보는데 의미가 있다고 하겠다. 이를 통해 우리 역사 속에 숨어 드러나지 않았던 태조 이성계의 이복동생 의안대군 이화에 대한 생애를 더듬어보고, 왕족으로서 위기의 순간에 역동적인 행동을 통해 성리학으로 무장한 신흥사대부와 더불어 조선의 정통성 확립을 이룩한 이면의 무인정신을 찾을 수 있을 것이다. As a part of examination into vassals of merit from the late era of Goryeo Dynasty to the early era of Joseon Dynasty, this study sought to investigate history about vassals of merit primarily in terms of Euian Daegun Yi Hwa`s meritorious activities during such period of transition where extreme changes occurred with collapse of former dynasty as well as foundation of new dynasty. Yi Hwa rendered his distinguished services even under critical situations-whether national or international-accompanied with troop withdrawal at Wihwado, foundation of Joseon dynasty and two prince revolts(1st and 2nd). And his services gave a historical implication that he was one of 4 great vassals of merit during such a period of transition in Korean history. Under the guise of Goryeo Dynasty`s collapse and Joseon Dynasty`s foundation, it was inevitable that there were many vassals of merit produced during this critical period, and royal family granted proper favors to those vassals with stipend for vassals of merit. In particular, Joseon Dynasty installed even a governmental office for vassals of merit to supervise general affairs about vassals of merit. It may be definitely to say that Euian Daegun Yi Hwa was the greatest vassal of merit during the period of transition from Goryeo to Joseon. He was a half-brother of Taejo Yi Seong-gye, the founder of Joseon Dynasty. Yi Hwa was invested as the vassal of 4 great merits in contribution to troop withdrawal, new dynasty foundation, affairs of state and assistance in making Yi Seong-gye the first king of Joseon dynasty, so he could enjoy the greatest favor granted by the governmental authority of his contemporary dynasty. Yi Hwa was a royal family member who stood nearest by Yi Seong-gye and got over a series of hardships wisely with bold actions, so he could play a role as real contributor to founding Joseon Dynasty after collapse of Goryeo Dynasty. According to historical documents, he took up Yeongsamsasa and was finally appointed as Yeong-euijeong, the prime minister of Joseon Dynasty, but there was very few studies focusing on his presence in the history. Therefore, this study has its implications in that it addresses the historical activities of Euian Daegun Yi Hwa to examine vassals of merit from the late era of Goryeo Dynasty to the early era of Joseon Dynasty, and determine any differences in special favors and order of ranks for the vassal of merit. Thus, it is expected that we will be able to explore the lifetime of Yi Hwa, a covered half-brother of Taejo Yi Seong-gye in Korean history, and will be able to examine Yi Hwa``s dynamic actions as royal family at critical moments of historical transition, so that we may find out the military spirit of a vassal behind his meritorious contribution to establishing the legitimacy of Joseon Dynasty in collaboration with emerging gentry armed with the philosophy of Neo-confucianism.
