Objectives : Usually medical terminology of oriental mecidine has a multiple meaning. But concept of Shanghan(傷寒) should be simple, because Shanghanlun(傷寒論) is a clinical guideline book. So I researched to suggest many concept of Shanghan, which are suitable for each chapter of Shanghanlun. Methods : I enumerated provisions including Shnaghan from the original texts of Gangpyeong-Shanghanlun(康平傷寒論). And I translated and reviewed them. Results : 1. Shanghan of Preface(序文) means a disease of high fatality. 2. Shanghan of Shanghanrye(傷寒例) means diseases due to physical damage of cold weather. 3. Shanghan of Diagnosis of Daeyang Disease(辨大陽病) - Neck stiffness(痙), Dampness(濕), Sun stroke(暍) means certain disease names accompanying fever, chill. 4. Shanghan used in Diagnosis of Diseases is a premise of many provisions of Shanghanlun. And Shanghan is made up of finished fever, expected fever, chill, body pain, loss of appetite, image of tension. Conclusions : We can use a appropriate translation on Shanghan of each chapter of Gangpyeong-Sanghanlun. Especially Shanghan used in "Diagnosis of Diseases" should have more accurate meaning.

Objectives : This paper is an analysis of the name 'Shanghan(傷寒)' and its related contents in unearthed documents. "Shanghanlun" as we know it is an edited version by Wangshuhe of the Jin period, as the original text as written by Zhangzhongjing has been unavailable. Recently in China, documents of the Xian Jin and Liang Han periods are being unearthed, allowing us to look at medical texts of previous times that Zhang referenced. The aim of this paper is to look at the developmental process of the Shanghan theory based on these medical texts. Methods : Research documents include all unearthed documents that include the name 'Shanghan'. There were a total of 4 written cases, 2 in "Wuweihandaiyijian", and one each in "Dunhuanghanjian" and "Juyanhanjian". Meaning of extracted examples were analyzed in reference to the shape of the character, then compared and analyzed with existing medical texts such as "Shanghanlun", "Jibeiqianjinyaofang", and "Bencaogangmu" Conclusions : By examining the 4 examples, Bianzhenglunzi and clinical prescriptions which are characteristics of Shanghanlun could be found. There was an 'Eliminating Wind' formula that was used to eliminate Cold pathogen of the exterior which showed remarkable resemblance to that found in "Jibeiqianjinyaofang". There are also formulas that 'Communicate to Disentangle' and 'Disentangle the Stomach' which are used in progressed stages of Shanghan disease, showing that Bianzhenglunzi had already been applied to Shanghan conditions.

Objectives : Qianjinyifang Shanghan is an important versions of Shanghanlun, but it was never introduced widely, and studies on its were not done a lot. Thus, the author seeks to study this book in order to find its special features, its relationship with other versions of Shanghanlun, and its status in the process of the transmission of Shanghanlun. Methods : Dissertations on Qianjinyifang Shanghan and dissertations that compare Yuhanben and Songben were studied. Sentences were numbered based on Qianjinyifang Shanghan, Tangbenshanghanlunjiaozhu to compare with other versions of Shanghanlun. Results : Sunsimiao brought the changes of "以法方類證, 方證同條 比類相附" in Shanghanlun. It organized Taiyangbing chapters according to their decoction pattern, and made Taiyangbing chapter name as "太陽病用${\cdots}$湯法". Chì shi ye was placed in front of Taiyangbìngyongguizhitangfa. Jueyinbing and Liouhuibing were combined to one that were seperated in Yuhanben. Shanghanyiji titlel was put in front of Yijipian to distinguish clearly from Sanyinsanyangpian. Sanyinsanyangpian and Yijipian contains many sentences that are missing in Songben. Conclusions : Qianjinyifang Shanghan is one of the major Shanghanluns that were saved by Jiaozhengyishuju I Northern Song Period, and it was put together as an independent book after the Ming and Qing dynasties. It plays an important role in the process of the transmission of Shanghanlun in 800 years, through 3C, 7C, and 11C. Moreover, when we compare the three books of Qianjinyifang Shanghan, Yuhanben, and Songben's Sanyinsanyangpian and Yijipian's sentences, we could know that they began from a common original text, but they became branched, and Qianjinyifang Shanghan has a closer relationship with Yuhanben. Sanyinsanyangpian and Yijipian sentences can serve to supplement what is missing in today's Songben.

Objectives :This paper analyzes the newly discovered manuscripts of the Sanghanjijangdo(傷寒指掌圖). A bibliographic study was carried out to examine the contents and the background of publication. Methods : First, a bibliographical analysis of the Joseon text was conducted. Next, the contents of the composition were compared with the Yuanand early Ming publications of China. Results : 1. The Joseon publication was published based on the original publication from the Yuan period. The Sanghanjijangdo has been cited in several medical texts from early Joseon such as the Euibangyuchwi and Hyangyakjipseongbang. 3. The background for publication of the Sanghanjijangdo is as following. First, it is an introductory text for beginners of Shanghan[cold damage] studies. Second, its contents do not conflict with the specialized Shanghan text that was used as the textbook for the royal physician examination. Third, it contains many Shanghan formulas that could be composed of domestic drugs only. Conclusions : The Sanghanjijangdo could be described as an introductory text for beginners of Shanghan studies that contributed to the expansion of the base of Shanghan studies in 15c mid-Joseon. Publication of this book clearly shows that Shanghan studies in early Joseon was practiced within the scopes of practicality and localization of medicinals.

In order to grasp the clear concepts and variables to treat Shanghan diseases which has complex meaning by each medical literature, several concepts and analytic method of structuralism from early to late stage encompassing Saussure and Derrida were used. Main concepts are langue and parole, signifiant and signifie, syntagme and paradigme, denotation and connotation, synchronie and diachronie, identity of structure and differance etc. and methods are substituting these concepts to historical Shanghan theories from Zhongjing to Ming-Qing dynasty and comparisons of synchronie about their era. Essential qualities of Shanghan diseases are pathologic phenomena under the order of unification of nature and man formed through concrescence between individual human body and geo-climatico-socio-cultural environmental conditions, neither injuries by cold pathogen nor five types of exopathogenic febrile diseases. The former environmental elements can be inferred from general traits of desires and public pathological aspects of social members, and the latter personal factors from corresponding features to those pathogenic variables. In addition, the concepts of Shanghan disease are added successively up to now via Jin-Yuan's four great masters and Wenbing masters, and thus the new concepts of denotation became another connotation obtaining new signifiant. In this way, for the treatment of Shanghan diseases, new theories should be made for ranging prescription over the wenbing field; reflecting not only climatical variables but also each patient's physio-pathological features and sociocultural variables. Thereby an appropriate and reasonable therapeutical systems can be designed and can guide research direction hereafter.

1. Objectvies The study is purposed to find the role of the six-channels of shanghan(傷寒六經) on the relation between ${\ulcorner}$Dongyisusaebowon(東醫壽世保元)${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$Shanghanlun(傷寒論)${\lrcorner}$ 2. Methods The study is compared ${\ulcorner}$Euiwonleun(醫源論)${\lrcorner}$ with the process of study on the ${\ulcorner}$Shanghanlun(傷寒論)${\lrcorner}$, origin and theorys of the Shanghan six-channels(傷寒六經). 3. Results and Conclusions Just as Dong-mu fully understood the concepts of ${\ulcorner}$Shanghanlun(傷寒論)${\lrcorner}$ through the six of Shanghan(傷寒六經) proposed by Chu-gueng(朱肱), the ideas of Differential Diagnostic System(辨證體系) of ${\ulcorner}$Shanghanlun(傷寒論)${\lrcorner}$ had much influence on ${\ulcorner}$Dongyisusaebowon(東醫壽世保元)${\lrcorner}$. Therefore a new medical theory could be born.

Among the ancient ideas of East Asia, there is a myth about the symbol of the Four Gods who commands all directions in the east, south, west, and north, and this is also reflected in the medical field. However, although there is discussion about Qinglong Decoction (青龍湯), Baihu Decoction (白虎湯) and Xuanwu Decoction (玄武湯) in the 『Shanghan Lun (傷寒論)』, there is no content focusing on Zhuniao decoction (朱鳥湯). Considering the consistent perspective of 『Shanghan Lun』, which recognizes the disease-syndrome and seeks prescriptions based on yin and yang thinking, this is very unusual. Therefore, in this study, it was revealed that the concept of 'Sishen Decoction (四神湯)' itself was a concept that emerged when the authors of 『Shanghan Lun』 established the 'eight-principles syndrome differentiation (八綱辨證)' system in their recognition and response to diseases-syndromes. Based on this, I considered the following possibilities: They were able to present Qinglong decoction, Baihu Decoction and Xuanwu decoction, as appropriate prescriptions for 'exterior cold excess syndrome (表寒實證)', 'interior heat deficiency syndrome (裏熱虛證)', and 'interior cold deficiency syndrome (裏熱實證)'. However, it is possible that the name of the prescription 'Zhuniao decoction' was not intentionally used, because it was not possible to provide an appropriate prescription for 'exterior cold excess syndrome (表熱實證)'.

More than 30,000 Wooden Slips were excavated in the Juyan region in 1930s and 1970s. These slips recorded military actions of Juyan Frontier Fortress during Han dynasty, which is about BC 100 ~ AD 30. On the slips, there are many disease names and symptoms mentioned. We focused on a certain disease name, namely, Shnaghan(傷寒; injured by cold), which is the main subject of Shangha-lun(傷寒論). Looking closely into these Juan Wooden Slips, we found many articles recording Shanghan, including related diseases and symptoms, such as Shanghan(傷汗; injured by sweat), headache, fever and chills, immobilization of limbs, unacceptance of foods. And there are another Shanghan-related symptoms, such as inflation of upper-abdomen(心腹支滿), pain of upper abdomen(心腹痛), strain of both armpits(兩胠葥急), inflation of chest(胸脇支滿), tightness and fear in the chest(煩滿). Although they have no direct relationship with Shanghan, there are many symptoms, including the external wounds of waist, finger, thigh, back, breast and head, abscess of leg and elbow, sore throat, itching, leucorrhea, powerlessness of hands and legs(手足癃), visceral injury(傷臟), tinnitus, cold, warm and heat. Because the Wooden Slips are very short, with some characters even missing, we can not confirm the detail of the disease and symptoms. In addition, we will report about the herbal medicines and other treatments, which are recorded on the slips, by further research.

Objective and Methods: This study examined Cheng Guopeng (程國彭)'s understanding of Shanghan Disease (傷寒病) through <Yixue xinwu (醫學心悟)>, created tables based on this, and these tables were compared with <Shiyong zhongyi neike biaodian (實用中醫內科表典)>'s table on Six Meridian Pattern Identification (六經辨證). Results and Conclusion: 1. <Yixue xinwu> and <Shiyong zhongy neike biaodian> were mostly similar regarding the pathology and the Six Meridian Pattern Identification of Shanghan Disease. However, <Shiyong zhongyi neike biaodian> selected terms that encompass internal medical diseases rather than terms that refer only to infectious diseases. 2. About Taiyang meridian disease (太陽 經病), <Yixue xinwu> recognized the existence of Wen bing (溫病) and Re bing (熱病), but did not regard them as True Shanghan Disease (正傷寒), and differentially diagnosed them as Similar Shanghan Disease (類傷寒). 3. About Yangming meridian disease (陽明 經病), <Yixue xinwu> understood this as a meridian transmitted heat-syndrome in the interior (傳經 裏熱證), and created a new Radix Puerariae Decoction (葛根湯). This prescription has the same name as the <Shanghanlun (傷寒論)>, but it has a different drug composition and indications. 4. About three-In meridian disease (3陰 經病), <Yixue xinwu> always divided it into two categories: meridian transmitted heat-syndrome in the interior (傳經 裏熱證) and meridian stroked cold-syndrome in the interior (直中 裏寒證). However, <Shiyong zhongyi neike biaodian> described Taiin disease (太陰病) as Spleen-stomach deficiency cold-syndrome (脾胃虛寒證). This means that meridian transmitted heat-syndrome in the interior (傳經 裏熱證) does not exist among Taiin disease.

Generally, clause 273 of Shanghan-lun was called as a principle of Taeeum-byung and was regarded that it contains essential substances of Taeeum-byung. In this study, I compared the text of diverse woodblock-printed versions, the opinions of many annotators, and other clauses of Shanghan-lun which related with clause 273 in pathologic view points. As results, "the symptoms become worsen by purgative medicine" of remained version is more reasonable rather than "diarrhea become worsen" of Song version, in the side of pathologic interpretation of Taeeum-byung and to understand the reason of mistreatment. In addition, the symptoms of "an intermittent and autonomous abdominal cramp" and "feeling hard on sub-chest region" should be recognized as transformed symptoms by mistreatment of purgative medicine. Thus, diarrhea cannot be accepted as a peculiar symptom of Taeeum-byung, but should be regarded as a possible symptom transformed from Taeeum-byung or its preceding diseases by purgative medicine.
