  • 본 연구는 국내 구곡 중 선유동구곡과 함께 신선 사상적 색채가 가장 농후한 충북 괴산 갈은구곡을 중심으로 제명에 깃든 상징성과 구곡시에 나타난 경관적 특징을 선도적 관점에서 풀이하였다. 아울러 구곡문화경관의 이해와 홍보에 부합되도록 갈은구곡의 서사구조를 정리하고 주축(主軸) 이야기의 전달을 위한 경관스토리보드를 제시하였다. 갈은구곡 각 곡의 명칭이나 주변의 각자 그리고 인근 선유동구곡의 경물들과 상호 비교를 통한 갈은구곡 장소와 경관의 의미를 분석 해석한 결과, 신선과 관련된 경물과 고사에는 선계 동경과 불로장생의 염원이 깃들어 있다. 이는 궁극적으로 신과 인간 그리고 자연이 하나로 어울려 조화를 이루어야 한다는 선인합일(仙人合一)의 상징적 표현으로 보인다. 특히 이곳에는 식물류의 불변성과 동물류의 신령성 그리고 그 배경을 구성하는 자연물의 항상성(恒常性)을 바탕으로 한 장수길상(長壽吉祥)의 의식이 강하게 내재되어 있다. 또한 특징적으로 시각적 종점(visual terminal)에 설정된 9곡 선국암은 바둑이 신선의 도락(道樂)임을 여실히 반영하고 있으며, 이는 바둑9품계의 위계를 상징적으로 묘사하고 있다. 따라서 갈은구곡은 풍류나 도학의 성취수단으로서 보다는 신선사상과 관련된 선도적 발상과 신선 관련 모티프 즉 장생과 불사, 신령성, 신선놀음 등의 결속구조로 이루어지고 있음을 볼 때, 갈은구곡에는 선계지향 및 장생불사와 은일의 정취가 매우 강하게 나타나고 있다. 이에 준거한 공간 이야기구조는 '신선의 세계로 들어섬(기(起))'-'신선의 세계가 펼쳐짐(승(承))'-'신선과 함께 함(전(轉))'-'신선이 됨(결(結))'으로 전개 해석되었다. 최종적으로 표층구조에서 읽혀지는 갈은구곡의 경관이미지는 계류의 환경지원성을 바탕으로 이곳에 깃든 수경관의 선경적 아름다움과 구곡동천의 선취(仙趣)적 공간미를 속성으로 하고 있으며, 심층구조로는 바둑 9품계의 '입신(入神)공간'으로 수직 상승하는 서사구조로 정리하였다. 이를 바탕으로 강선(降仙)-선경(仙境)-선약(仙藥)-선학(仙鶴)-선유(仙遊)-은선(隱仙)의 6개의 장면(cut)을 주제로 한 갈은구곡의 경관스토리보드를 제시하였다. 선도적 신선사상을 대변하는 장생불사의 신선은 현대 조경의 주요 경관연출 모티프가 될 것이 자명하다. 자연의 불변성과 신령성 그리고 이와 같은 특성을 지원해 줄 수 있는 주변 산수경관의 항상성이야말로 한국적 조경설계에서 담아야 할 가장 중요한 가치가 아닐 수 없다.

『전경』에 나타난 생명의 존재론적 위상 (A Study on the Ontological Meaning of Life in The Canonical Scripture)

  • 이 글은 대순사상에 나타난 생명이 존재론적 관점에서 어떤 위상을 지니는지 살펴보려는 목적을 갖는다. 존재론이란 있는 것들을 있게끔 만드는 그 '있음'이 무엇인지, '있는 것들'을 실현하는 가능근거가 있는지, 있다면 그것이 무엇인지를 탐구하는 인간 사유의 한 분야이다. 생명은 대순사상의 추기이다. 대순사상의 생명은 현재적 인간을 포함한 창생(蒼生)뿐 아니라 신성, 불, 보살, 귀와 신 등 모든 신명(神明)을 포괄하며 현재와 과거, 미래의 물리적 한계를 넘어 시·공간적으로 무한한 우주적 차원으로 확산한다. 고대 존재론의 시초인 플라톤에 있어서 인간은 '혼(psychē)을 가진 몸(sōma)'이었다. 그러나 인간에게 '몸은 무덤(sōma sēma)'일 뿐이다. 몸은 혼을 가두는 굴레이고 혼을 묶는 사슬이다. 플라톤의 혼의 세 특징은 각각 불사(不死), 상생(相生), 신성(神性)이다. 플라톤의 혼에 대한 생각은 아리스토텔레스를 거쳐, 중세 서양 형이상학과 현대 생명철학자 베르그손에게 이어진다. 베르그손은 생명이란 무화(無化, néantiser)하려는 무(無)를 극복하면서 끊임없이 자기 동일성을 만들어 나가는 힘이다. 베르그손의 생명의 세 가지 특징은 자기동일성, 약동, 자유이다. 대순사상은 선천의 가사적 생명이 해원을 통해 후천의 영원한 생명으로 개벽한다고 본다. 대순사상이 보는 후천 생명의 대표인 지상신선은 이런 대순적 생명성을 잘 보여준다. 지상신선은 불사의 존재이고 영원을 특징으로 하지만 존재 형이상학이 주장하는 부동성은 부정한다. 지상신선은 활동하는 생명 존재이다.

  • This paper is to analyze how Walt Whitman developed the theme and structure of Leaves of Grass with his ideal of democratic vistas. Whitman established his identity as an inspired poet, having faith in the divinity of man based on transcendental belief. After being awakened to the transcendental truth, he practiced his own common world view--his democratic vistas. Whitman searched for the unity with nature and identified his self with "common man and his nation." The poetry expresses "cosmological and national ideology" dedicated to the creation of an ideal nation united in eternal freedom and peace. By portraying common cosmic and national theme in terms of his individual personality, he brought various paradoxical and controversial ideas into one thing, namely "democracy", fusing diversity into unity. As in the symbol of the grass, there is a unity in variety reflected by democracy in a cosmological and political compound. With the form of free verse, he could express his liberal unrestrained and mystical thoughts of democracy. This new form has been associated with the poet's strong consciousness of the need for modernization in his country. He willingly assumed "the role of prophet and public voice for American democrat" with the rolling catalogues and I-persona which formed a sense of the common man and common things of America. Whitman pioneered a democrat literature with simple and dynamic tone and style. He successively pursued the democratic vistas in his Leaves of Grass.

  • The purpose of this study is to clarify the adap-tation of traditional beauty of dress in Baek Eui for the establishment of tradition of dress culture. Especially, the color of the traditional dress rep-resent a symbol which is connedted with the na-tional character and the evvironment. But it is hard to examine closely because color preference are transformend with the times. This study is framed within the limits of the next themes : the origin, history and meaning of the Baek Eui ; the philosophical theory of cosmic Five Elements and the Prohibition of Baek Eui ; the beauty of Baek Eui. As the national character is indicative of the conservativeness and the purity, Koreans have kept up wearing Baek Eui spite of the occasional prohibition. Since the color of the dress represen-tatived the signs of the social class and the power, over the eighty persent of the common people put on the Beak Eui : ramie and flax fabrics that has it's own color in Chosun-Dynasty. I think that the use of natural color harmony is prominent and the beauty of Baek Eui is the naturality and the non-artificiality. The meaning of the symbol on the Korean Beak Eui is the divinity, the holiness, the purity, the cleanliness, the modesty, the frugality, the integ-rity, the constancy, the elegance, the simplicity.

  • Human health is affected by not only physical conditions but also mental and social well-being. Changes of human emotions show up as gestures, facial expressions and sweating. Human emotions are affected by such automatic nerve system functions as blood pressure, blood circulation speed, heart beats, pupillary reflex, fluid transfusion, muscular contraction and digestive organs, all of which influence the holistic diseases. The Oriental Medicine sees from a perspective of unity of divinity and men that human life activities are united in terms of their physical and mental functions. From such a perspective, human Five Organs are linked with Five Mental(五神) and Seven Emotions(七情), while they are affected by each other, influencing the life activities both directly and indirectly. Based on Confucianism, Sa-Sang Theory argues that human emotions can be categorized into four energy states and therefore, that human diseases and physiological conditions there of may be determined differently depending on the Four Energies(四氣). There seems to be some common points between Sa-Sang Theory and the conventional Oriental Medicine in that human emotions affect individuals' health conditions, so there seems to be much room for mutual complementation.

  • In this paper, in order to explicate how mathematics education can contribute to humanity education, I enquired in which position mathematics occupy in Froebel's For this, I examined Froebel's theory of humanity education, his theory of mathematics education, and the applicational problem of his thoughts to nowaday education. Froebel's educational theory is based on the concept of the Divine Unity which is relevant to the notion of 'The Absolute' of Fichte, Schelling, Hegel. He claims that from inanimate objects to human being, all is subject to the eternal law, which is presided by God. So the world itself is the representation of this law of the Divine Unity and education consists in leading man to conscious and free representation of it. The revealing process of the inner law of the Divine Unity can be attained through the awareness of the divinity which resides in the self. And this process of self-consciousness is dialectical movement of the two opposites, i.e. 'inner' and 'outer' Froebel suggests that mathematics is the mediator between the inner and outer world, i.e. he suggests that since both human being and nature are the representations of the Divine Unity, mathematics is both the pure human spirits and the law of nature. Having such a role, mathematics becomes the main discipline in education. Though there are some criticism on Froebel's educational thoughts on mathematics discussed in this paper, it can provide a typical answer to the question about how mathematics education contributes to humanity education.

  • Design concepts of light can be divided into two respects, visual plastic and metaphysical meaning. The current research focuses on the second respect. The meaning of light is abstract characteristics(for example, divinity, spirituality, or image) ultimately expressed by visual plastic. Because it makes architectural space abundant, it have been expressed frequently in architectural space until now. The purpose of this paper is to conceptualize and explain and arrange the meanings of light in the category that have been expressed in architectural space from ancient to current. The method of this study is content analysis and case study, and this is supplement by theoretical consideration on the meaning of light(relationship between perception and meaning, elements to form meaning etc.). This study consists of three steps. Firstly, through the content analysis of existing literature and documents, 17 meanings of light are confirmed. Secondly, these 17 meanings are defined and explained in 3 categories(symbolic, esthetic, and experiential character). Thirdly, they are additionally explained and articulated by case study. In the result, various meanings of light that have been fragmentarily expressed in architectural space until now is clearly arranged at a glance. Those suggested design concepts will be basic conferential material, available to the interior designers and students who want to utilize the organised study concepts.

  • This article compares the concepts of divine incarnation as expounded in Daesoon Thought and in Christianity and questions the essence of the divinity in both traditions. In Daesoon Thought, The Supreme God, Sangje, saw major disorganization leading to extreme violence and doom and decided to incarnate on earth under the human form of Kang Jeungsan (1871-1909). Then the living God taught the solution to human suffering through the revelations he sent in 1917 to Jo Cheol-Je, or Jo Jeongsan (1895-1958) and the revelations were passed on to Dojeon Park Wudang who in 1969 founded Daesoon Thought. In Christianity, God incarnated in his son, Jesus Christ, who allowed for the radical transformation of the condition of man through his physical sacrifice. Daesoon differs in that Sangje did not offer himself as sacrifice when he came on earth but reorganized the world and taught how to apply benevolence to establish the Earthly Paradise. The affirmation that Daesoon Jinrihoe is both monotheistic and polytheistic is then analyzed. If the concept of monotheism seems to differ vastly between the two traditions, it appears that biblical monotheism is itself relatively young in the history of world religions so that Christianity has ancient roots germane to those of Daesoon Jinrihoe. The article concludes on the originality of this religion: though it is built on Daoism, Buddhism and Confucianism, it has transformed their vision of the deity and of its message in a most convincing manner.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the form and meaning of shaman's costumes worn by each gutgeori in Seoul jaesugut and to derive the characteristics of Shaman's costume at gutgeori. Observational research was conducted for three years by participating in the site of two types of gut, which are divided into local jaesugut for the well-being of the region and individual jaesugut that takes place based on personal request. Seoul jaesugut consists of 12 different gutgeori according to the deity it serves and meaning: Bujeongcheongbae, Gamangcheongbae, Bulsageori, Sangeori, Josanggeori, Sangsangeori, Byulsanggeori, Sinjanggeori, Daegamgeori, Seongjugeori, Changbugeori, and Duitjeon. The shape and colour of the shaman's costume worn in each gutgeori are related to the meaning of the gutgeori. Followings are the characteristics of the shaman's costume from gutgeori. First, shaman's costume adopted traditional costumes that symbolized the characteristics of god represented in each gutgeori. Second, gutgeori consists of multiple gods, and shaman's costumes were adopt to represent the superior god among these gods. Third, sometimes the costumes were adopted according to the characteristic of the god instead of its divinity. Fourth, even if the gods were different, if the roles of the gods were the same, the same form of shaman's costume could be taken. Fifth, the process of gut showed the harmony of yin and yang using the principle of five elements through the colour of shaman's costume.
