  • Objectives : The uterus plays an important role in the woman's body. In Korean Medical literature, the uterus is mentioned in various contexts according to different perspectives on its meaning and function. An examination of these various contexts is crucial in understanding the meaning of the uterus and to better understand and approach woman's body. Methods : Aside from the most widely used term Jagung(子宮), there were various terms used to refer to the uterus. Based on a list of these terms, the Siku Qianshu collection of medical literatures was investigated. Contents related to the definition, shape, location, function were extracted and examined. Results : Among the findings, first, there were various terms referring to the uterus similar to contemporary understanding. Some of them referred to the uterus as a whole, while others referred to specific parts, one of which is the placenta. Some reflected a broader perspective on the meaning of the uterus. Second, the functions of the uterus could be summarized as gate keeping, and the maintenance of uterine environment that is related to menstruation, pregnancy, and childbirth. Third, based on the examination of the meaning of the uterus and its functions, perspectives on the uterus in Korean Medicine could be summarized into two. Conclusions : One viewed uterus as an organ dedicated to reproduction, similar to today's common understanding. According to this view, uterus is a special organ specific to women, which functions as an incubator for the fetus. The other viewed the uterus as an intangible source of life in the woman's body. As a general source of life to all human beings, it is not a passive organ but functions as an active source in woman's life phenomena. The two perspectives are not in conflict, but rather reflect the broad range of thought on the concept of the uterus in Korean Medicine. In today's biomedical society, the diversity and flexibility of these perspectives could shed light on medical practices that have resulted from extreme views on the woman's body.

  • The purpose of the study was to find out design problems of grand chapel of the Protestant church and to set analysis frame based on theoretical study on abstract symbolism and investigate cases and to give reference of abstract symbolism expression of design of the chapel. The findings were as follow: Introduction of the light was found to be the most outstanding among abstract symbolic factors, and metaphor was commonly used to express abstract symbols. First, 1) Introduction of the light was found to be the most outstanding at application of abstract symbolic factor of modern Protestant church to be the highest among pastors, office bearers, believers and non-Christians. 2) The metaphor was found to be the most noticeable among abstract symbolic expressions. Second, the findings of questionnaire survey was: The findings of questionnaire of not only abstract symbolic expression factor but also symbolic expression method was not to cognize ideas of pastor, office bearers, believers and designers often. This was because abstract symbolism was made from point of view of designers. Therefore, abstract symbolic expression factors of grand chapel of modern Protestant church, for instance, effective introduction of the light, light quoting the Bible sayings, material, color and shapes, etc should be used with metaphor and symmetry to give Christians value of symbol and to hide meaning of symbolic values to non-Christians who do not know contents of the Bible.

  • The concept of Mingmen(命門) was originated from "Neijing(內經)" and "Nanjing(難經)", respectively meaning eye in "Neijing" and right kidney in "Nanjing". But the Mingmen theory had been developed on the basis of the concept of Mingmen in "Nanjing" thereafter, and it had been influenced by the Taoist alchemy in the process of explaining the relation between the concept of Xianghuo(相火) and Yuanqi(元氣). Out of this the Mingmen theory had been changed as a thing that comprises newly the concept of Huo(火), and consequentially the dispute about the arrangement between Mingmen and Xin(心) had been consistently progressed, because Xin is the center of Huo. And on the other hand, because Xin is also the center of mind, the influence of the state of Xin which is projected to Mingmen had also been discussed. Based on the facts like this, this study will discuss the possibility of the extension of the concept about the function of Mingmen. That is, this study will add up the concept of Mingmen in "Neijing" to the Mingmen theory so far, will add up the concept of Zhijue(知覺) to the Mingmen theory. The concept of Zhijue had been originated from the Neo-Confucianism in Song dynasty, and this study thinks, in the light of the concept of Zhijue, the concept of Mingmen could be viewed from a new perspective, that is, from a view of mind.

  • This essay analyzes the meaning of "modern civilization" and the ways it relates to religion conceived as a "The Fellowship of Daesoon Truth (Daesoon Jinrihoe)." We take the expression "Fellowship of Truth" in the broadest sense as indicative of a human companionship with the true nature of the Real. We therefore understand the term to be practically equivalent with the concept of "religion" as connoting the ideas of bond, relationship, debt, and duty toward the Ultimate Reality, toward fellow human beings, and toward the cosmos in general. On this basis, our intent is to assess the nature and limits of the relationship between religion as a fellowship of the Truth and the tenets of modern civilization. Within this overarching perspective, the case of Daesoon Jinrihoe is particularly significant and fruitful for two sets of reasons. Firstly, this is so because Daesoon is typically branded a "new religious movement" open to modernity while it is also true that at least some of its representatives are wary of the negative implications of the modern world. Secondly, the significance of a study of Daesoon in light of the notion of religion as a "The Fellowship of the Truth" lies in that it asserts being rooted in tradition, which raises the question of its relationship with modernity.

  • Science education has been in a state of crisis for some time. To understand the science teacher's role, it is helpful to reconsider an aspect as fundamental as the nature of science. Since teaching cannot be separated from learning and knowledge, their very close dynamic processes need to prescribe the role of the teacher and student simultaneously. However, traditional views are limited because they tend to emphasize some particular selected aspect of learning and teaching. This paper investigates the epistemology of Michael Polanyi (1891 1976), which is often considered to transcend the confrontation between objectivity and subjectivity of knowledge. Polanyi reconceptualized science knowledge as 'personal knowledge' based on his own experience as a scientist and a thinker. In this study, I discuss 1) the nature of science in light of Polanyi's epistemology, 2) what this says about the meaning of science learning and teaching, 3) the potential of these ideas for the role of the science teacher.

  • This study is focused on three major museum projects completed during 1990's by Richard Meier who is known as the romantic modernist as well as one of the architects who continue their devotion on completing the fourth dimensional spatial concept through the practice. Main focus of the study will be analyzing the space and design elements shown in the Museum of Contemporary Art (Barcelona, Spain, 1986-95), Museum of Television & Radio (Beverly Hills, CA., 1994-96) and the Getty Center(Los Angeles, CA., 1984-97), and find out the new meaning of museum design suggested by the architect. The analyzation was done based on the actual sight visits and through the acquired references. The museum designs done by Richard Meier show consistency between visual language, use of 'light, space and form' as the design elements to connect interior and exterior to create openness and harmony with surrounding condition. Additionally, greatness of the architectural elevation, efficient use of interconnecting space, adoption of natural light, affective use of the space, careful consideration to the exhibiting items, spread of information centers, balance between large and small exhibition spaces, and his concept on providing choices to the viewer within the museum are the main issues in designing the museum in order to give various spatial experience to the visitors.

  • 신호등은 적색, 녹색일 때 다른 의미를 나타낸다. 자동차 운전자와 횡단보도의 보행자는 신호등의 신호에 따라 움직이거나 멈춰야한다. 그러나 이러한 신호를 무시하거나 보지 않을 경우 사고가 발생할 확률이 높다. 또한 곡선형 횡단보도에서는 적외선 센서를 이용한 안내 방송 시스템을 설치하기가 어려운 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 카메라를 이용하여 보행자를 검지하는 방법을 설계 및 구현한다. 보행철주에 설치된 카메라가 보행자를 촬영하고, 촬영된 이미지를 통해 보행자 검지구간을 설정한다. 제안하는 시스템을 사용하면 곡선형 횡단보도에서 보행자 검지를 하는데 효율적이다.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 마리오 보타에 의해 디자인된 천창과 지붕구조를 공간적, 형태적 관점에서, 빛의 연출 관점에서 분석하여 그 특성을 파악하는데 있다. 이 같은 목표에 따라 본 연구에서는 보타의 천창과 지붕구조를 잘 설명해 줄 수 있는 작품 13점을 선정, 디자인 원리에 입각하여 분석하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 통해 파악된 보타의 천창, 지붕구조의 특성은 아래와 같이 정리될 수 있겠다. 첫째, 벽돌과 같이 두터운 재료에 의해 제한되어 비교적 어두운 실내가 되는 보타의 작품에서 천창은 공간을 밝혀주는 주된 채광수단이 된다. 지붕구조는 천창으로부터 유입되는 빛을 효율적으로 분산 할 수 있도록 치밀하게 디자인되었다. 둘째, 그의 작품에서 천창과 지붕구조는 형태를 창조하는 요소로서 역할을 담당한다. 그것들은 작품 외관을 위해 고유한 이미지를 창출하는데 일조하며 실내공간에 형태를 부여하게 된다. 셋째, 천창은 또한 외부의 자연과 대화하는 창으로 실내에 기여한다. 사람들은 실내에서 천창을 통해 시간의 흐름을 감지하게 되며 하늘의 풍경을 감상할 수 있다. 넷째, 천창을 통해 유입되며 지붕구조에 의해 조절되는 빛은 보타의 실내에 특별한 분위기를 연출한다. 위로부터 떨어지는 빛을 갖는 실내에서 사람들은 신비로움과 경건함을 느끼게 된다. 다섯째, 천창은 또한 상징적 의미를 내포한다. 천창은 하늘과 땅 사이의 관계를 상징하기도 하며 교회 작품에서는 성도들에게 하늘나라의 비젼을 보여주기도 한다. 인공조명을 활용하여 단순한 실내를 강조하는 근래의 우리 작가들 작품과 비교할 때 천창과 지붕구조를 적극적으로 기용, 자연광의 이점을 취하며 이들을 조형요소로도 이용하는 보타의 작품은 우리 작가들의 작품과는 다른 또 다른 형식의 디자인을 제안하고 있다.
