Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the 'identity' found in constructional characteristics of Geumgok Hongneung, the first imperial tomb of Korean empire. In terms of "sameness", which states for internal self-cognition among ambivalent situations while consisting identity, Hongneung inherited the prosperity of the Chosun dynasty, possessed 'sustainability' related to Cheongryangri Hongneung of Empress Myeongseong, as well as revealed various 'identitification' of situations in order to expose self-esteem as emperor and imperial nations. On the other hand, in terms of "individuality" as an external self-cognition, the opposite phase of sameness, Hongneung is a mixture of the will of Emperor Gojong and Japanese intervention hence formed 5th styles of royal tombs through 'peculiarity' which distinguishes it from the original tradition. In addition, the value of Hongneung is that it actually reflects the confusing and difficult times of the old ages, and it also involves 'excellence' as the place of the according a state funeral of Emperor Gojong and provoking March First Independence Movement. Thus, Geumgok Hongneung is a recorded landscape that clearly reflects the times of royal tombs of the Chosun dynasty, the world cultural heritage, and also the historic landscape showing extraordinary landscape of unique characteristics, 'Hwangjereung'.

본 연구를 통해 대한제국 최초의 황제릉인 금곡 홍릉의 조영특성에서 발견되는 '정체성'을 해석코자하였으며 그 결과는 다음과 같이 정리된다. 우선 정체성을 구성하는 양면적 국면 중 내적 자기인식인 '동일성' 측면에서 홍릉은 조선왕조의 번성기를 계승하면서도 명성황후의 청량리 홍릉과 연계되는 '지속성'을 보유하며, 황제 및 황제국가로서의 자존감을 드러내기 위한 다양한 '동일화'의 환경을 드러낸다. 반면 이와 반대되는 국면인 '외적 타자인식'으로서의 '개별성' 측면에 볼 때, 고종황제의 의지와 일제의 간섭이 혼재된 홍릉은 기존의 전통과 구별되는 '특이성'을 통해, 조선왕릉 5기의 양식을 탄생시키는 결과를 이루게 하였다. 아울러 홍릉의 가치는 당시의 혼란스럽고 어려웠던 시대상을 진정성 있게 투영하며, 고종의 국장과 3.1운동 촉발의 장소이라는 '수월성' 역시 보유한다. 이렇듯 금곡의 홍릉은 세계적 문화유산인 조선 왕릉 중에서도 당시의 시대상을 극명하게 반영하는 기록경관인 동시에 역사경관이며, '황제릉'이라는 독특한 특질을 드러내는 비범한 경관이라 할 수 있다.
