다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper aims to examine the life and activities of Ahn Seok-kyung(1718-1774), who spent much of his life in Gangwon-do, in order to shed light on the history of Korean classical literature in Gangwon-do in the late Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910), focusing on the Sapgyo Manrok (霅橋漫錄), a collection of his writings. Unlike previous studies of Korean classical literature in Gangwon-do, this research attempted to make a balanced survey by examining the community activities of writers living in the region.
Ahn Seok-kyung, a migrant who settled in Sapgyo in Hoengseong by way of Wonju, demonstrated an open and sincere attitude toward communication with local residents, advised his student Gang Ip-ji to associate with true gentlemen and support one another while living away from home, advised him not to be swayed by the threat of bandits or tigers, and offered him practical wisdom of life. By recording the anecdotes of a Wonju boat merchant Yi, as well as the father of Lim Gyeong-won in Hoengseong, Ahn Seok-kyung demonstrated a literary intention to explore and embody the meaning of Dao (道) in daily life. Ahn, who engaged in scholarly discussions with Gang Ip-ji at the Yongyeon Academy in Hoengseong, sought ethical answers on the issues of entertaining guests and dealing with unethical teachers, focusing on the practice of Neo-Confucian doctrines in everyday life. Ahn actively attempted to promote Gangwon-do community figures by petitioning to elevate the posthumous rank of Gwon Gyu (權揆), a deceased Goseong scholar in Gangwon-do, as part of his effort to honor his talent and by persistently appealing to the provincial governor with regard to the issue of awarding a medal on the filial daughter-in-law Yi in Hoengseong.
The Sapgyo Manrok vividly contains An’s experience of dynamically negotiating with Gangwon-do residents and the detailed scenes of life, thereby confirming the humanistic value of pilgi (筆記, a genre of notes and miscellaneous writings) in the study of regional Korean classical literature.
