중국 초기 산문의 ‘敎化性’ 특징과 그 장르적 계승관계 고찰

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the hypothesis that the genre containing “敎化性domestication,” one of the characteristics of China’s early pros, was expressed as “admonished and inscription(箴銘).” Even if the sentences before the letters were verbally transmitted and cited, if they expanded their vitality as one of the later genres, they can also be included in the realm of prose. The early edification sentences were pre-textual media but appeared as “testimony of truth” by the philosophers and scholars of the Warring States Period. However, the reason why these styles failed to spread to future generations is that they could not expand to individual genres as they were absorbed into the philosophers and scholars of the Warring States Period and media. This is because strong reason overwhelmed the transcendent world, and their language was superior to the language and power of the gods. The text before the writing reached the Han Dynasty secured its genre characteristics with “moral prose” called “admonished and inscription (箴銘)”, which maintained its vitality until the end of the Qing Dynasty.
