일반적으로 한국에서 대통력은 고려시대 공민왕 19년(1370)부터 효종 3년(1652)까지 사용된 것으로 알려져 있다. 이는 "고려사"의 "홍무 3년의 대통력을 보내니$\cdots$"와 "증보문헌비고" 상위고의 "효종 4년(1653)에 비로소 시헌력법을 시행하였다"라는 기록에 근거한 것이다. 특히 "증보문헌비고"의 기록과 관련해서는 효종 4년부터 시헌력을 사용하였다는 주장과 효종 4년에 도입하여 5년(1654)부터 사용하였다는 엇갈린 주장들이 있다. 이 연구에서는 한국에서의 대통력 사용 시기를 검증하기 위해 대통력법에 의한 역일 계산 프로그램을 개발하고, 고문헌 및 현존하는 당시 역서들을 분석을 하였으며 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 대통력이 1370년부터 사용되었는지에 대해서는 제고의 여지가 있지만 적어도 1389년부터는 사용된 것으로 추정된다. 둘째, 조선시대에는 대통력이 효종 4년까지 사용되었고 시헌력은 효종 4년에 도입되어 효종 5년부터 시행되었음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 셋째, "정미년(1667)에 이르러 대통력법으로 고쳐 사용하다가 경술년(1670)부터 도로 시헌력을 사용하였다"라는 "조선왕조실록"의 기록(현종 12년 8월 8일)은 사실임을 검증 할 수 있었다. 관련하여 대통력법에 의하면 1669년에는 윤12월이 있지만 1670년에 다시 시헌력을 도입하게 됨으로써 실제로는 사용되지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 넷째, 선행 연구들에 일부 음력 초하루 일진의 오류가 있음을 발견하였다. 마지막으로, 당시 역서는 보름일자를 정할 때 한양의 일출입분 시각을 참고하였음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이번 연구를 통해 문헌 기록과는 독립적으로 대통력법 시행기간의 각 달의 대소 및 음력 초하루의 일진, 매년의 각 절기 일자 및 시간, 윤달 등을 계산할 수 있게 되었으며, 이는 향후 조선시대 역서 연구에 많은 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

The aim of this thesis was to examine the circumstances that led up to successful coin use across the entire nation in 1678 (the $4^{th}$ year of King Sukjong's reign), during the Joseon Dynasty. To this end, this thesis analysed the Sa-Mouk(事目, Provisions) that contained the institutional protocol for coin circulation, implemented by King Hyojong and the statesman Kim Youk(金堉) who had practical experience in these matters over the ten years of King Hyojong's reign(1649-1659). To regulate the problematic wide circulation of coarse cotton cloth as currency in the market of 1650 (the $1^{st}$ year of King Hyojong's reign), prohibition measures were implemented. Besides the superficial justification given for these measures(i.e., that the market price was disturbed by the use of coarse cotton cloth), there was another purpose to prohibiting the circulation of cotton cloth as money, following the standard ruled by the government: the state aimed to ensure momentum for the upcoming coin circulation policy, by strengthening its control of the current economy. In 1651 (the $2^{nd}$ year of King Hyojong's reign), the government fully cracked down on the use of coarse cotton cloth as currency, and simultaneously implemented its coin circulation policy in the Pyeongan(平安) region. The pretext for this policy was to raise finances to support people who were starving as a result of poor harvests and famine. People who received coins from government officials could purchase food in the market, and the coin circulation policy was judged to be successful. Subsequently, to extend coin circulation further throughout the region, the Sa-Mouk for Seoul was established. The Sa-Mouk included stipulations regarding the use of coin in transactions and for government expenditure; it aimed thereby to enhance the national policy's market credit. The hasty implementation of the policy for the expansion of coin circulation caused some problems that required its modification. In 1652 (the $3^{rd}$ year of King Hyojong's reign), coin circulation was increased to encompass the Gyeonggi(京畿) region, and some of the tax that had been paid in rice was now paid in coin. However, coins were in short supply, since there was insufficient copper, the main material used in coin production, and the policy faced a significant limitation. Therefore, in 1655(the $6^{th}$ year of King Hyojong's reign), a new Sa-Mouk for coin circulation was established. This Sa-Mouk included specifications regarding the determination of coin values based on rice and silver, and mandated the wide spread installation of stores for exchanging spot goods for coins throughout the region in which coins were circulating. This policy's objective was to secure stability for the national economy by further regulating coin circulation. The sustained implementation of the coin circulation policy for ten years by King Hyojong and the statesman Kim Youk offered the government an opportunity to accumulate experience in coin circulation in the market, and also to learn from institutional trial and error. This may have been one of the contributing factors to the nation-wide coin circulation that was established in 1678. The objective of the policy implemented during King Hyojong's reign was not to meet the market's requirements, but rather to ensure the preservation of the national economy, and this misjudgement constituted the policy's key limitation. At this time, the government urgently needed to secure finances to cope with the war against China's Qing Dynasty.
