  • In this thesis, based on Yulgok's theory to study "Daehak", it was examined how scholars of Horn and Nakron developed the theory to study "Daehak" regarding Bunyeom and Pyeonnyeom in the context of the history of ideas. The scholars of Horon and Nakron developed Yulgok's theory to study "Daehak" arguing that one could fully recover a saint's mind only after studying Seongeui(誠意, sincerity) to get rid of Aknyeom(惡念, an evil intention), Jeongsim(正心, an upright heart) to control Bunyeom, and Susin(修身, moral training) to control study and Pyeonnyeom. Yet, as scholars of Nakron criticized Horon scholars' argument considering the study of Jeongsim to control Bunyeom as Jeongsi(靜時, calm time), the controversy over the theory to study "Daehak" developed. The scholars of Horon generally insisted that because the method of Seongchal(省察, introspection) suggested in "Jeongsimjang(正心章, Chapter of Upright Heart)" of "Daehak" was not going into Dongsi(動時, dynamic time) and fathoming with Saryeo(思慮, consideration), but releasing it at the very moment of catching the indication of four troubles relevant to Bunyeom, the study on Jeongsim in "Daehak" should be the study of Jeongsi(靜時, calm time) for Jonyang(存養, developing good nature) of the main part of mind. On the other hand, the scholars of Nakron mostly contended that because Sim(心, mind) discussed in "Jeongsimjang" of "Daehak" referred to the whole mind and was not limited to Mibalsim(未發心, mind not manifested yet) of Jeongsi(靜時, calm time), the study on Jeongsim should include Dongjeong(動靜, movements). Yulgok once commented on Lee Yeon-pyeong(李延平)'s study on Mi-bal-che-in(未發體 認) in the same context of the study methods of release at the very moment of light reflection(輕輕照管·輕輕放退). In this respect, study on Jeongsim to control Bunyeom can be separated and belong to the study on Mibal of Jeongsi(靜時, calm time) as the scholars of Horon did. On the other hand, from the aspect that regarding the study on Jeongsim, Yulgok discussed both Jonyang(存養, developing good nature) and Seongchal(省察, introspection) with Mibal(未發, not manifested) and Yibal(已發, already manifested) together, it seems to have no problem to think of Jeongsim as the study including Dongjeong(動靜, movements). There were no different opinions between the scholars of Horon and those of Nakron regarding that there was study of Jeongsi(靜時, calm time) in "Daehak", too. However, while the scholars of Horon usually understood the study of Jeongsim in "Daehak" itself as the study of Mibal in "Jungyong", some scholars of Nakron thought that even though the study of Jeongsim of "Daehak" corresponded to Dongsi(動時, dynamic time), it included the study on Mibal because of the logic of Che-yong-il-won(體用一源). It can be said that the discussion over the study of Jeongsim to control Bunyeom and the study of Susin to control Pyeonnyeom were not limited to the proposal of the methodology to just control Bunyeom and Pyeonnyeom, but developed into the understanding of "Daehak" and "Jungyong" as one system of study.

  • In this paper, I examined two things. First explore the of the reality(眞) in poems written on paintings and discussion on paintings in men of letters of Pre-chosun dynasty, furthemore, it analyzes the meaning and thought. To explain it, I would like to analyse the discourse surrounding the reality(眞) in poems written on paintings and discussion on paintings, and concept of the borrowing(假) and the unreal(幻). First of all, I examine the ways that the view of nature of Confucians is pertinent to the abiding in reverence and the investigation of principles of confucians, also painting is necessarry condition for their moral and spiritual self-cultivation. In the discourse surrounding the reality, it is to suggest from 'natural reality (天眞)' to escape from the reality(眞), and proceeds to examine the transformation of reality(眞) in mind(人心). Furthermore I examine the meaning of transform and delicate difference between borrowing(假) and the unreal(幻). In this process, concept of the borrowing(假) and the unreal(幻) is divided into the two meaning. False(假) is to become the Borrowing and painting, the unreal(幻) is change into the act of recognition. In conclusion, I examined the significant transformation of the reality(眞) and the unreal(幻). The reality(眞) has been recognized as a important concept, it is diverged into the Nature, outer things and painting mind, and the object of ultimate value in appreciation and painting of Pre-chosun dynasty.

  • This article investigates the concept of the xing(性) used by Hu Hong. Hu Hong's philosophical system considered to top priority for xing is called xingbunlun(性本論), and he suggested the characteristics of xing as follows. First, Hu Hong regarded xing as the fundamental of whole world and related to the specific individual things, so he constructed the concept of xing in the perspective of ontology. Namely while xing is ti(體) the root of all the world, it is the realization of the uniqueness of the individual things. Also he considered xing which of the ontological aspect developed various psychological aspect contained xin (心), qing(情), yu(欲), etc. Seond, As Hu Hong regulated that wei fa(未發) is xing and yi fa(已發) is xin, he defined the ideal relation between xing and xin as xingtixinyong(性體心用). And he considered that the sage and the ordinary peoples are equal in the xing's aspect of wei fa, but they are not equal in ability of the xin in the aspect of wei fa. Hu Hong thought that the only sage realized the ideal relation between xing and xin in this world, because he keep his mind silent. So Hu Hong suggested the possibility of moral cultivation to the ordinary peoples, expressing that human nature realized the function of the mind(成性), in order that they realized ideal relation by following ren(仁). Third, unlike the traditional notion, Hu Hong understood the meaning of xing in the aspect of ontology. He interpreted the shan(善) of xingshan(性善) as the meaning of exclamation, which implied that "the innate goodness of human nature(性善)" meant "Human nature is good." Because Hu Hong thought that the meaning of xing transcended the relative concept of good and evil, and accepted the whole world affirmatively. In the opinion of Hu Hong, as the concept of xing had two ways of intentionality; likes and dislikes(好惡), things formed relationship with other in this world. Then the concept of good and evil of the ethical value judgement occurred.

  • The objective of this study was to review the meaning and problems of Scientific Knowledge and Ethical Value in Environmental Education. The ultimate goal of environmental education is shaping proenvironmental human behavior. The factors of human behavioral decision making are ideology, value, attitude and behavioral intentions. Ideology is a kind of belief system used by social groups to interpret their social world. The main elements of belief system are knowledge and value. The traditional thinking in education has been that we can change behavior by making human beings more knowledgeable and more valuable. In environmental education, the aim of scientific inquiry is to analysis cause-effect relation of human beings behavior and environmental phenomenon, and ethical education is to change the mind of human beings from zero-sum to positive-sum about the relations between human beings and natural environments. But, there are many problems of knowledge education and value education in environmental education. For example scientific knowledge without ethical value is dangerous to environment protection, and ethical value without scientific knowledge is vague. Therefore, we must recognize that the relationship of ethical value and scientific knowledge is not substitutional but complementary. The teaching-learning methods which can integrate knowledge and value in environmental education are rational decision making model. For this model, we can construct teaching contents with inquiry materials. To earn the benefits of specialization among several subjects in environmental education, social studies can focus on social science knowledge and decision making, science education can focus on pure natural science knowledge and scientific investigation, moral education can focus on problems of ethical value system, home economics can focus on practical action and environmental education(Environments in middle school, Ecology and Environments in high school) can integrate social-national science knowledge and ethical value in broad perspective about human beings and ecosystem. That is the method to protect from law of diminishing marginal utility of learning in environmental education.

  • Ideals of beauty has expressed variously through the centuries and in different cultures. Each traditional 'togu' has it's own morphology (in the meaning of nonverval linguistic) as using various type of language in each cultural erea. Korean aesthetics on 'dogu'philosophy introduces a whole new set of basic concepts outside western aesthetic framework of beauty Most distinctive is the insistence on overcoming dichotomies, especially between cognition and emotion, (momism)body and mind, self and other, and individual and group. Several topics are particularly illuminating within aesthetics: furniture, calligraphy, traditional garments pose interesting challenging to the art/nature, inside/outside, ethics/desire dichotomies so crucial to moral and cultural context. aesthetics are equally deserving of philosophical scrutiny: the ways in which philosophy of 'dogu'and aesthetics are integrated with daily life, the emphasis on process or understanding context rather than product itself or product 'form'. Dogu did not separate daily life and aesthetics from understanding social context. Language of 'togu' also has own vocabulary and grammar. But we often cannot gain our persnol experience truthful beauty of togu until understand context of understanding. it would be immpossible to explain ,or to analize different way of thinkings and behaivor precisly without understanding same codes of language.

  • This study examined the cases of Cheongbaek-ri who were the model of integrity and clean official in Korean tradition, and tried to draw some implications for modern public integrity education. Integrity is a subject and a virtue in itself. Integrity can thus be seen in terms of value education. Cheongbaek-ri in Korean tradition qualifies as modeling in the value education. There were many examples of Cheongbaek-ri in our tradition. This study focused on Park Su-ryang, Lee Won-ik, and Jeong Yak-yong as representatives of each period during Josun Dynasty. Even at the high status, they had not abused their position for self-greed. With less greed, they had been happy even if they had been not rich. They initially tried to be a savior in their daily lives, with their own mind in vain. Their works would be a good example for public officials of modern Korea. In the future, if the educational institutions of the public use this model as a material, it would be very effective.

  • When AIDS evolved into a narrative, there were lots of mythologies on AIDS. Among them, the one that AIDS is a gay plague was accepted without any special rejection. Now AIDS is no longer a gay-related disease. At the beginning of the epidemic, however, AIDS was said to be a gay plague and gays were blamed for their life styles. Although AIDS was new, it had been in the mind of people. That is, the truths about AIDS were distorted and misunderstood. The social aspects of AIDS were based not on real scientific facts but on the prejudice and the practices which heterosexual society had invented for homosexuals. Here the AIDS crisis is said to be politicized. The socio-political responses to AIDS were effected by the dominance of Reaganism. So this paper investigates the effects of AIDS on the gay community and the reactions of the Reagan administration through analyzing ten American AIDS plays. Four issues are discussed to develop the paper's main idea: the meaning of AIDS, the past to be remembered, the new family system, and the indifference of President Reagan and the silence of media. AIDS means death; the relation between homosexuality and AIDS cannot be separated. Under these social circumstances AIDS becomes a symbol for moral corruption and the person with AIDS is thought to be punished. But a gay person can overcome the fear of death through regaining promiscuous sex and confirming his identity as a gay. Also to survive in the heterosexual society a gay has to make a new family system. Finally the indifference of the Reagan administration and the virtual silence of the media make the crisis more serious. In the conclusion homosexuals are compared to the Jewish people and the responsibility of gay community is also discussed. The important thing is that facing the AIDS crisis, the gay community has spiritually grown up.

  • The ethics of Daesoon Jinrihoe is a system of contemporary practical morality, which contains religious features such as "One Dao" (一道), "Two Mountains" (二山, an allusion to Kang Jeungsan 姜甑山, and Jo Jeongson 趙鼎山), "Three Realms" (三界, means the realms of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity." For the purpose of my paper, "One Dao" is the ethical principle of Daesoon as well as the Tenets: "the Virtuous Concordance of Yin and Yang, Harmonious Union between Divine and Human Beings, the Resolution of Grievances for Mutual Beneficence, and Perfected Unification (jingyeong 眞境) with the Dao." "Two Mountains" are the Objects of belief. The Three Realms are the scopes of moral concern. In order to devote the Tenets of the ethical principle, ascetic practice in daily life has been emphasized as "Sincerity, Respectfulness, and Faithfulness" which are collectively called "Three Essential Attitudes." Meanwhile, "Quieting the Mind, Quieting the Body, Reverence for Heaven, and Cultivation (of oneself in accordance with doctrines)" are defined as the "Four Cardinal Mottoes." The ultimate belief is converted into guidelines for ethical conduct and religious rites. Through cultivation an interaction emerges between humankind and divine beings. The ethical ideal in Daesoon Jinrihoe includes personal "Perfected Unification with the Dao," nobility and cooperativity between humans and divine beings, and "the earthly paradise of the Later World." Compared to Buddhism, Christianity, and Daoism, Daesoon Jinrihoe's unique features are embodies by three aspects: the unity of mutual beneficence among the Three Realms, the cooperativity and nobility between humans and divinities, and the transcendental nature of the earthly paradise.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to develop a situation-specific theory to explain nurses' experiences of the COVID-19 crisis. Methods: The participants were 16 hospital nurses who experienced the COVID-19 crisis. Data were collected through in-depth individual interviews from September 2, 2020 to January 20, 2021. Transcribed interview contents were analyzed using Corbin and Strauss's grounded theory method. Results: A total of 38 concepts and 13 categories were identified through an open coding process. The core category found was becoming a pioneering nurse who turns crises into opportunities. The causal conditions were the chaos of being exposed defenselessly to an unexpected pandemic, fear caused by a nursing care field reminiscent of a battlefield, and moral distress from failing to protect patients' human dignity. The contextual conditions were feeling like the scapegoat of the hospital organization, increasing uncertainty due to the unpredictable state of COVID-19, and relative deprivation due to inappropriate treatment. The central phenomenon was suffering alone while experiencing the dedication of the COVID-19 hero image. The action/interactional strategy were efforts to find a breakthrough and getting the nurse's mind right, and the intervening conditions were gratitude for those who care for broken hearts and getting used to myself with repetitive work. The Consequences were becoming an independent nurse and frustration with the unchanging reality. Conclusion: This study provides the foundation for the nurse's situation-specific theory of the COVID-19 crisis by defining the crisis perceived by nurses who cared for COVID-19 patients and suggesting types of coping with the crisis.

  • In this paper, I reviewed the analysis of possible ICC model of international sale contract terms used in the international artwork trade. Based on this, the provisions proposed considering the specialties of the international artworks trade. The purpose of this research study is to help practitioners draw up a contract of international artworks trade. In Chapter II, I reviewed the highlights of the international sale of goods contract. In Chapter III, I discussed the issues that arise in creating specific provisions on the international artworks trade agreements. In Chapter IV, I discussed the issues in creating the general provisions on the international artworks trade agreements. Quantity provisions of the international artworks sales contract should include the "more or less" clause. And it should also clearly define the scope of the author's property rights transfer in the copyright provisions. Even if a buyer has been assigned the copyright of artworks from the artist, if the buyer modifies the artworks without permission, moral rights can be violated. In addition, even if a buyer has been assigned all of the intellectual property rights of the artists, if the buyer does not have the specific provisions, the buyer must keep in mind that the unauthorized publication of artworks, film production, merchandising, etc, may infringe the right to create derivative works.
