Abstract

This paper explores the possibilities of digital historiography, which is a methodology of empathetic historiography and historiography, by focusing on traveling sick people(행려병인, 行旅病人), who have not been actively studied. To this end, this paper first explains the responses and systems to the displaced persons in the Joseon Dynasty and the Japanese colonial period, and then examines the representative displaced persons of the Japanese colonial period. Through this, we introduced people who have been missing from history, and furthermore, we introduced advertisements for the dead in the Gazetteer of the Governor-General, which had not been paid attention to until now. The advertisements contain data on more than 100,000 lower-class people, which are not only vast in quantity but also qualitatively useful for various historical studies such as medical history, life history, daily history, and people history(民衆史). To analyze the vast amount of data, digital historiography methods can be used, but first, it is necessary to prepare conditions to utilize big data, such as textualizing the data so that it can be processed.
