오늘날 태국 남부 국경 부근의 3개주와 말레이 북부의 일부가 포함된 지역은 불교 사회인 태국과 무슬림 사회인 말레이라는 문화적인 차이가 있음에도 불구하고 그 문화적 근원을 찾아 보면 분명히 이전의 타이불교와 말레이 무슬림의 근원을 만나게 된다. 이는 역사적으로나 고고학적으로나 혹은 지방문학에서도 뿌리를 찾을 수 있는데 특별히 이 논문에서는 땀난나컨씨탐마랏(나컨씨탐마랏 신화)과 히카얏 메롱 마하왕싸(메롱 마하왕싸 신화)를 중심으로 불교권 타이와 이슬람권 말레이의 문화적인 면을 고찰해보고자 한다. 본 논문에서는 땀난나컨씨탐마랏(나컨씨탐마랏 신화)와 히카얏 메롱 마하왕싸(메롱 마하왕싸 신화) 속에 나타난 두문화, 즉, 불교권 타이와 이슬람권 말레이의 문화는 동일한 구조를 보이고 있음을 밝히고, 그 구조속에 나타난 지도자의 역할과 그 지역의 발전에 종교가 중요한 요소로 작용하였음을 주장하고 있다. 이러한 주장의 바탕은 Levi-Strauss의 이론으로써 태국 남부의 불교권 타이문화와 말레이 북부의 이슬람권 문화가 얼마나 친밀한 문화적 뿌리를 가지고 있는 지를 알게 한다.

The importance of cultural contents industry is steadily growing owing to the Korean wave etc. and Buddhist cultural contents is a part of the cultural contents. However, the development of Buddhist cultural contents in many ways has left much to be desired. That is because, it is difficult for the public, who is not Buddhist scholar, to understand and take interest in conventional contents on Buddhist books themselves which are digitalized. Also, most contents researches are discussed on the necessity of contents development and just stay in these subjects, but it is insufficient to study a semantic analysis and visualizing contents on Buddhist books. So, in this paper, we analyse mandala's twinning rite in the Buddhist books and implement visual contents on the rite. The mandala is using toohadeokbul in a special way as the abhisinca rite. We analyse concept of the toohadeokbul and implement its visual contents which visualize ideological logic of Buddhism. The implemented contents are able to provide the public with Buddhist cultural experience of the yard. Additional, by trying to visualize descriptive expressions of Buddhist books, this paper could be a precedent for developing visual contents of unlimited data comprised in Buddhist books.

In this paper, we describe a symbolization analysis of a Diamond World Mandala animation. The mandala means the basic idea of the esoteric Buddhism. The Diamond World Mandala has a very high value as cultural archetype due to have better specific meaning and aesthetic quality than other mandalas. Most researches of Buddhist cultural contents have focused on cultural assets restoration and abstract discussion on contents industrialization until now. However researches on contents directly delivering Buddhism scriptures' meanings are insufficient. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze concept of mandala and symbolical meaning of appeared elements in mandala rather than theoretical development appropriateness of mandalas' contents, then implement a prototype of a mandala animation. The animation is made of intangible culture such as an intellectual legacy of mankind, and its applications are as follows; education service for Buddhist doctrines, and cultural services through easy accessibility of Buddhist culture, etc.

In the midst of the fusion era in digital contents, securing a variety of traditional cultural sources is important. Out of its long history, Korea has extensive spectrum of cultural contents in combination with conventional religions. Buddhist art has been a pillar of the traditional culture for a long time in Korea, by which we could secure new sources for cultural contents and classify them. This is aimed that we could bring the future brands into reality based on the traditional culture through Buddhist cultural contents. This study hired the original cultural forms in the viewpoints of traditional culture. Study on the implication through the symbols of Avalokitesvara (觀音菩薩) and Buddhist child (童子) in Buddhist art might allow to secure a foothold to create own characters. Thus, focusing on Avalokitesvara (觀音菩薩) and Buddhist child (童子) in the Buddhist sacred images as registered in Cultural Heritage Administration for national treasures, those traditional characters were reviewed through their own system of symbol. During the course, Buddhist characters were available to be classified into DB by their roles and materials지물. This study could help to exploit the complicated Buddhist culture of its symbolic meanings and to shape them into original forms of the culture. Also, through the meanings of the Buddhist sacred images, it could provide the digital contents pool with Korean traditional characters.

'천(天)'은 불교 세계관 속의 선인으로서 불교 전통 예술에서 많이 표현된 불교 세계관 중에 하나이다. 최근 '천'의 개념이 애니메이션 작품에 표현되면서, 불교 세계관에 대한 관심이 많아지고 있다. 불교 문화와 세계관의 이해를 통해 다양한 예술작품에 활용된다면, 애니메이션의 발전에 대해 훌륭한 소재가 될 수 있을 것이다. 이를 위해 형태 특징, 색채 특징 이 두 가지 시각적 특징으로 불교 세계관의 '천'을 분석하고 애니메이션 캐릭터 창작의 연관성을 분석하였다. 본 논문을 통해 불교의 세계관과 불교 문화가 더욱 발전할 수 있는 계기가 되기를 희망한다.

This paper discusses how the traditional cuisine of Korea capitalizes on "nostalgia" for the past. While examining the (re)invention of Buddhist cuisine and Andong food, this paper contends that traditional Korean cuisine is commodified through a process of de-contexualization. This paper first discusses the possibility that the idea of traditional cuisine is an invention in the first place. The history of temple food, for instance, suggests that it was created as a vehicle for circulating and implementing the ruling ideology in the ancient societies of China. This paper then turns to the issue of the growing influence of traditional cuisine in contemporary Korean culture, which is related to the public's demand for healthy food and also tied with the South Korean society's need for promoting a national cuisine in the age of globalization. The rise of traditional cuisine is a sign that people are seeking to reform their eating habits and form a counterculture. Yet, another side of the story is that consumers end up taking part in the self-expanding capitalist market with more consumer choices rather than forming a genuine counterculture. In this respect, the reinvention of temple food is closely related to what Jean and John L. Comaroff call the "emergence of consumption as a privileged site for the fabrication of self and society, of culture and identity".

고구려 백제 신라 삼국은 같은 문화적 기반 위에 성립됐지만 각기 다른 민족 구성과 풍토에서 불교를 수용한 결과 동질성과 함께 지역적 특성을 그대로 나타낸다. 고구려는 힘으로 충만된 양감과 자유분방함, 백제는 세련되며 온화하고 정적인 분위기, 신라는 자유분방하고 치졸한 양식이 각각 특색으로 드러나 있다.
