The Literati's Travels to Mt. Chungryang in the Chosun Dynasty Reflected in Travel Accounts

유산기로 본 조선시대 사대부의 청량산 여행

The purpose of this study is to clarify motives, itinerary and general patterns associated with the traveling of the upper class in the Chosun Dynasty based on twenty travel accounts of Mt. Chungryang. In addition, previous studies were referred to in order to compare these trips to Mt. Chungryang with those which were undertaken to Mt. Kumgang so as to identify the unique characteristics of those involved with the trips to Mt. Chungryang and of these trips in themselves. Through this process, unique characteristics, such as the travelers' academic backgrounds and place of origin, as well as how these travelers' relationship with their teachers influenced the motivation for these trips were uncovered, as were the processes through which travel schedules and companions were selected. Moreover, the researcher identified similarities and differences between the travel of Mt. Chungryang and Mt. Kumgang in terms of the travelers' motivation for the trip, the transportation methods they employed, and the kind of accommodation they sought. Moreover while similarities were also uncovered with regards to the travel practices of the literati class during this time, differences emerged in terms of their travel dates and schedules.

본 연구는 조선시대에 저술된 총 20편의 '청량산유산기'를 통해 당시 사대부들의 여행 동기를 파악하고 여정과 여행관행을 복원하여 그 특징을 규명하는 데 목적을 두었다. 또한 선행연구를 통해 고찰한 금강산 여행과 비교해, 청량산 여행이 어떠한 특성을 지니는 지에도 주목하였다. 그 결과, 여행자들의 학문적 배경 출신지 사승관계 등 개인적 특성이 여행 동기는 물론, 여정과 주요 경유지의 선정, 여행시기와 동반자 둥에 지대한 영향을 미쳤음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 청량산 여행은 여행동기 교통수단 숙박지 등에서 금강산 여행과 유사한 측면이 맡으나, 서로 다른 점도 적지 않았다. 유사점들은 당시 사대부의 여행에서 관행으로 굳어진 것들이 대부분이었고, 차이점은 주로 여행기간과 여정의 차이에서 기인한 것이었다.
