『東醫寶鑑』「湯液篇」의 本草 분류에 대한 연구

A Study on the classification of materia medica in medicinal part of Treasured Mirror of Eastern Medicine(『東醫寶鑑』「湯液編」)

The medicinal part of Treasured Mirror of Eastern Medicine(『東醫寶鑑』「湯液編」) is based on Classified Emergency Materia Medica(『證類本草』), Compendium of Prescriptions from the Countryside(『鄕藥集成方』). But it distinguished materia medica of countryside(鄕藥) from materia medica of China(唐藥) and properly selected the sentences of them by actual medical circumstances in Korean peninsula. Especially upon assortment of medical herbs, the medicinal part of Treasured Mirror of Eastern Medicine added the part of Water, Earth, Metal, and divided the part of Fish&Bug, Jade&Stone into Fish, Bug, Jade, Stone part. Moreover, it abolished the three grade classification adopted in Classified Emergency Materia Medica, Compendium of Prescriptions from the Countryside and attempted a new approach on itemization; 'representative herb' and 'secondary herb'. Hence, medicinal part of Treasured Mirror of Eastern Medicine should be evaluated as the 'settling in of Chinese medicine with autonomous interpretation, other than 'the fusion of prescriptions from countryside and Chinese medicine.
