Abstract |
The period in which Ae-ryu Kwon Deok-gyu lived was a time when a full-scale uprising against Japanese imperialism began, which dominated Chosun by force.The Japanese General Government of Korea began to educate the Korean people, centering on history education in Chosun. The main purpose was to teach thehistory of Chosun, which was to be known as a citizen of Japanese imperialism. In response, independence activists and cultural historians continued to write historical books and various journals describing the independent history of Koreans in order to raise awareness of the subjectivity and liberation of Koreans. Ae-ryu (崖溜) is a person who left many achievements as an independence activist, Korean linguist and historian. In particular, he insisted on the independent view of the history of Chosun by 『ChosunYugi (朝鮮留記)』,『Chosun Yugilyag (朝鮮留記略)』, and 『Chosunsa (朝鮮史)』. It was described that the beginning of Korean history started with the story of Shinsi(神市) of Hwanwoong (桓雄), who is a member of the Hwan family (桓族), and continued for a long time by various Hwanwoongs, and this story was continued as Dangun (檀君) Chosun. Furthermore, Dangun Chosun, which had existed for a thousand years, described that its legitimacy was inherited by Buyeo(扶餘), leading the vein of ancient Korean history to 'Shinsi (神市)-Dangun Chosun (檀君朝鮮)- Buyeo (扶餘)'."Chosunsa (朝鮮史), which was written in the year of Chosun's independence from Japan, is the most widely read history book by Koreans at that time, and its achievements are remarkable because it disseminated and popularized a universal view of history that has been passed down. Korean ancient history is currently in a state of crisis. This is because it has been reduced to a view of self-reliance, although it has not been able to respond to the whole Northeast project of Chinese (東北工程) logic, which is described as Korean history that began as a subordinate country in China. At this time, it is necessary to draw attention again to Ae-ryu's view of ancient Chosun, which describes that it began with the history of Shinshi and was inherited as Dangun Chosun - Buyeo, as an important view to respond to the invasion of the history of neighboring countries. |
