韓國 傳統價値觀의 現代的 認識

Abstract

본고는 먼저 傳統이란 무엇인가를 알아보고, 다음으로 三國時代 ․ 高麗時代의 傳統 價値觀을 究明하고, 朝鮮 性理學者 및 實學者들의 傳統 價値觀을 考察함으로써 새로운 價値觀을 定立하고, 오늘날 物質主義로 인한 人間性疏外라는 현 시점에 한국 전통사상의 현대적 意味를 찾아보고자 한다.

Traditional ethic ideas of our country is able to trace the origin in Tangun's(檀君) the spint of the national foundation, that is, the humanistarianism(弘益人間). The main ideas from the periord of the Three States (i.e. silla, Kokuryo, and Backje) to the preceding term of an ancient Korea state (i.e. Koryo) are Koshindo(吉神道) ideas that has come down to us from ancient times, the Five Classics of Confucianism of Ham(漢) and literary ideas of Tang(君) had been inflowed from china. The period of King Chung yeal(忠烈王) in the late Koryo, metaphysics(性理學) thorght had been inflowed from Yuan(元) by An Hyang(安珦). It was the origin to from traditional ethic ideas, and also it was maintained until the middle Yi Dynasty era by moralists. In the later, traditional ethic was fromed within the realist thought(實學思想). Logical connection of traditional ethic ideas which has come down to us from ancient timmes, in a word, I can say the thought of a sense of duty and humanity(義理思想). It isn't become simply. The sense of duty and humanity can manifest after a desirable human values with wisdom and virtue which combined in it, but also when self-identity rightly establishes. The classics said to us, "Virtue is the root: Wealth is the result"(德者本也財者 末也) But today's values changes "Wealth is the root: Virtue is the result". As 「The Great learning(大學)」 said, "If he makes the root his secondary object, and the result his primary, he'll only wrangle with his people(外本內末 箏民)“, this is the very today's social phenomenon. To be made up of righteous public order as well as desirable values, I think that we have a new appreciation about human values is based on Korean traditional ethic. Confucius said, "Learning with a view to their own improvement(爲己之學) in order to values education for the sake of man's the inner sincerity. We put Confucius' viewpoint to practical use, so should be founded to our young generation an ethical education is based upon Korean traditional values by us. When a traditional ethical education is built up, we will be restored humnity which illustrious virtue is the root and wealth is the result. Also will be able to a man of one's whole personality. Therefore the society of union(大同社會) that it says in 「The Book of Rites(禮記)」 will be established.
