止浦 金坵 <與王學士書> 詳考

The Study of Jipo Kimgu s ‘Letter Sent to Wang scholar’

이 논문은 우선 고려 말의 큰 學者이자 名 文章家였고, 至大한 외교 업적을 남긴 외교가이자 정치가였던 止浦 金坵의 문집인 止浦集 의 成書過程과 그 가치를 먼저 考究하고, 이어서 당시 元나라에서 국가의 중요문서를 專擔하던 學士 王&#40346;에게 보낸 私信 2통 즉 <與王學士>와 <又與王學士>의 내용을 분석하고 의미를 연구하였다. 止浦集 은 일찍이 망실되었는데 조선 후기에 東文選 에 수록된 시문95편을 모아 재구성하여 출간하였다. 東文選 에 수록된 崔滋의 詩文이 25편, 李齊賢의 시문이 124편인 점을 통하여 東文選 을 편찬한 徐居正의 눈에 비친 金坵의 문학적 지위는 崔滋보다 월등히 높고 李齊賢과 거의 비견할 만 했다고 할 수 있다. 지포 김구와 왕악은 1240년경에 이미 중국에서 만나 교유를 다졌고, 지포는 그런 친밀한 교유를 바탕으로 왕악에게 정식 表奏文을 보냈을 뿐 아니라, 私信을 통해 元의 황제를 설득해 줄 것을 부탁하는 역할을 하였다. 이러한 점을 통해 지포 김구는 고려 말에 활약한 당시 최고수준의 문장가이자 외교가였음을 다시 한 번 확인할 수 있었다.

This research is to study of the worth and the process of composition of the book Jipozip . The Jipozip is the collection of works of Koo Kim who was a politician and a diplomat of great achievements as well. And the research is also to analyse two letters which were sent by Koo Kim to Ark Wang. The two letters were known as <To Wanghaksa> and <Again to Wanghaksa>. At that time Ark Wang was a scholar and in charge of national archives of One dynasty. The Jipozip was lost at one time, but this was published at the latter period of Chosun dynasty by collecting and reorganizing 95 poetries of Koo Kim. The 95 poetries were included in Dongmunsun which was edited by Geojung Seo(1420~1488) at the beginning of Chosun dynasty. By analysing 25 poetries of Ja Choi and 124 poetries of Jaehyun Lee, which were all included in Dongmunsun , Geojung Seo regarded with high respect the literary accomplishment of Koo Kim than that of Ja Choi, and in the literary aspect he compared favorably Koo Kim with Jaehyun Lee. Koo Kim met Ark Wang in China already about the year of 1240, and kept their companionship. Jipo not only forwarded Ark Wang formal national document on the foundation of their keen relationships but also sent Ark Wang personal letters asking to persuade the emperor of One dynasty. With this study it is found validated that Jipo Koo Kim was a writer and also a diplomat in active at the end of Korea dynasty of the highest level in those days.
