Abstract

The Cho-yeon Pavilion located in the Wangdae village in Samcheong-ri, Songgwang-myeon, Suncheon-si, was transformed into a place of refuge, a shrine, a vacation home, a lecture hall for kings. Based on the change, the current study has explored the periodic changing placeness and the transformation of cultural landscape and has figured out the meaning. The result of this study is as follows. First, "Cho-yeon", named by Yeonjae Song, Byeong-Seon, originated from Tao Te Ching of Lao Tzu. The concept is found not only in the Cho-yeon Pavilion in Suncheon but also in various places, such as, the Cho-yeon-dae in Pocheon, of the Cho-yeon-dae in Gapyeong, of the Cho-yeon-dae of the embankment behind the Gioheon of Changdeok-gung Garden, Cho-Yeon-Mul-Oe old buildings, including Jung(亭), Dae(臺), Gak(閣), of Ockriukag in Yuseong, etc. This shows that taoistic Poongrhu was naturally grafted onto confucian places, which is one of the examples of the fusion of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. Second, the placeness of the Cho-yeon Pavilion area is related to a legend that King Gong-min sought refuge here at the end of the Koryo Dynasty. The legend is based on the Wangdae village(king's region), Yu-Gyeong(留京)(the place where kings stayed), rock inscription of Wang-Dae-Sa-Jeok, Oh-Jang-Dae (the place where admiral flags were planted), and the Mohusan Mountain. Third, the Cho-yeon Pavilion not only has a base(the vacation home) that reflects confucian values from the rock inscription(趙鎭忠別業, 趙秉翼, 宋秉璿) of the beautiful rock walls and torrents but also has territoriality as taoistic Abode of the Immortals (there are places where people believe taoist hermits with miraculous powers live within 1km of the pavillion: Wol-Cheong(月靑), Pung-Cheong(風靑), Su-Cheong(水靑), Dong-Cheon(洞天). The Cho-yeon Pavilion also reflects the heaven of Neo-Confucianism for, pursuing study, and improving aesthetic sense by expanding its outer area and establishing the nine Gok: Se-Rok-Gyo(洗鹿橋)., Bong-Il-Dae(捧日臺), Ja-Mi-Gu(紫薇鳩), Un-Mae-Dae(雲梅臺), Wa-Ryong-Chong(臥龍叢), Gwang-Seok-Dae(廣石臺), Eun-Seon-Gul(隱仙窟), Byeok-Ok-Dam(碧玉潭), and Wa-Seok-Po(臥石布). In sum, the Cho-yeon Pavilion is a complex cultural landscape. Fourth, the usage of the Cho-yeon Pavilion was expanded and transformed: (1)Buddhist monastery${\rightarrow}$(2)Confucian vacation home${\rightarrow}$(3)Vacation home+Taoistic Poongrhu Place${\rightarrow}$(4)Vacation Home+Taoistic Poongrhu Place+Lecture Hall(the heaven of Neo-Confucianism). To illustrate, in 7978, the place served as Buddist Monk Kwang-Sa's monastery; in 1863, Cho, Jin-Choong established a vacation home by building a shrine in front of the tomb of his ancestor; in 1864, Cho, Jae-Ho expanded its usage to a vacation home to serve ancestors as a taoistic place by repairing the pavilion with roof tiles; and after 1890, Cho, Jun-Sup received the name of the pavilion, Cho-yeon, from his teacher Song, Byeong-Seon, and used the Pavilion for a lecture hall.

순천시 송광면 삼청리 왕대마을에 자리하고 있는 초연정이 왕의 피난처, 제각, 별업, 강학공간으로 변모되는 양상에 착안하여, 시기별로 변모되는 장소성과 문화경관의 변용양상을 탐색하고 그 의미를 추적한 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 연재 송병선이 명명한 '초연'이란 정자명칭은 노자의 도덕경에 연원하는데, 순천 초연정을 비롯하여 포천 초연대, 가평 초연대, 창덕궁 후원 초연대, 유성 옥류각의 초연물외 등 정(亭), 대(臺), 각(閣) 등 공간속에 다양하게 투영되고 있어 도가적 풍류가 유가적 공간에 자연스럽게 접목되는 유불도 습합양상을 도출할 수 있다. 둘째, 초연정은 모후산 풍수경관과 수목석이 어우러진 계류풍광과 암경, 월출경, 도가적 이상향을 반영한 동천복지, 성리학적 이상향을 반영한 구곡처 등 승경향유의 요처에 절묘하게 자리하고 있으며, 왕대마을(왕의 주둔지), 유경(留京), 왕대사적 바위글씨, 그리고 오장대(장군기를 꽂아 놓은 자리), 모후산 등 고려말 공민왕의 피난처였다는 전설이 전해지는 장소성을 갖는다. 셋째, 초연정의 아름다운 계류 암벽 바위글씨(趙鎭忠別業, 宋秉璿)를 통해 유가적 가치를 반영한 거점(별업)뿐만 아니라 도가적 동천복지로서의 영역성(1km 이내에 월청, 풍청, 수청 각자와 삼청동천), 그리고 외원권역을 확장하여 수변계류에 9곡 <세록교(洗鹿橋) 봉일대(捧日臺) 자미구(紫薇鳩) 운매대(雲梅臺) 와룡총(臥龍叢) 광석대(廣石臺) 은선굴(隱仙窟) 벽옥담(碧玉潭) 와석포(臥石布)>을 설정하고 산수유상과 강학, 경관미학적감수성 제고 등 수심양성을 위한 성리학적 낙토를 원림속에 담아낸 복합 문화경관 향유 양상을 보여준다. 넷째, 초연정은 1778년 대광사 승려의 수도처(水石亭)로서 선원 기능을 하던 장소인데, 1836년 조진충이 선조의 묘 앞에 제각을 지어 별업을 초창했고, 1864년 조재호는 기와로 중수하여 선조를 기리는 별업기능과 도가적 은일처로 활용하는 확장성을 추적할 수 있다. 이후 1890년 조준섭은 스승 연재 송병선에게 '초연'이라는 정자 명칭을 받아 강학처로 활용하는 등 (1)불교 수도처${\rightarrow}$(2)유교 별업처${\rightarrow}$(3)별업+도교적 풍류처${\rightarrow}$(4)별업+도교적 풍류처+강학처(성리학적 낙토)로 용도가 확장 변용되는 양상을 추적할 수 있다.
