초록

이 글은 한국학중앙연구원 장서각 왕실문헌의 하나인 醫官 玄在德(1771~1833)의 『弇山日記』에 대하여 살펴본 것이다. 玄在德은 漢學譯官 玄㷞(1749~1819)의 아들로 서울에 세거한 川寧玄氏 中人집안의 일원이다. 1789년(정조 13) 醫科에 입격한 뒤 1830년대까지 의관으로 활동하였으며, 글씨를 잘 쓰기로 유명하였다. 그는 일기를 통해 다양한 서적 편찬 및 간행에 참여하였음도 확인된다.
장서각에 소장된 현재덕의 『엄산일기』는 전체 56책으로 책력에 각각의 날짜마다 사안을 기재해두었다. 시기적으로 1803년부터 1833년까지 31년간에 걸쳐 작성되었으며, 제24책의 경우 장남인 醫官 玄鉀(1790~1814)의 1812년 일기라는 특징이 있다. 본 문헌은 답인된 인문과 일기의 내용, 현재덕의 차남인 譯官 玄鐸(1813~1887)의 일기를 통해 배경적으로 집안 대대로 일기를 작성해온 환경이 있었으며, 이를 후대에 남기고자 노력한 후손들의 노력으로 19세기까지 집안에서 보관되다가, 일제강점기 장서각 왕실문헌으로 편입되었음을 알 수 있다.
해당 일기는 현재덕을 중심으로 집안 인물의 출생, 관례, 입격 및 성묘, 제사 등이 세세히 기재되어 있다. 특히 관원의 자격으로 현재덕이 참여하였던 내의원 『院誌』 改修, 議藥廳 『小日記』 正書, 『列聖御製』 및 『弘齋全書』의 印役과 관련된 기록이 확인된다. 현재까지 알려진 서울 세거 중인의 생활일기 중 가장 시기가 앞서면서도 내용이 풍부한 『弇山日記』는 추후 중인의 생활상, 의관, 문헌의 간행 등 관련된 제반 분야에 참고될 필요가 있다.

영어초록

This paper examines ‘Eomsan-Ilgi (弇山日記, Diary of Eomsan)’ by medical officer Hyeon Jaedeok (1771–1833), which is one of the royal documents kept in Jangseogak collection of the Academy of Korean Studies. Born as the son of an official interpreter of Chinese Language Hyeon Hu (1749–1819), Hyeon Jaedeok was a member of Jungin (middle class) family of Choennyoeng Hyeon Clan that have resided in Seoul for generations. In 1789 (the 13th year of King Jeongjo’s reign), he passed the Gwageo examination (state examination) in medicine and worked as a medical officer until the 1830s. Hyeon Jaedeok was famous for having a good handwriting. It is also confirmed through his diary that he participated in compiling and publishing various books.
Hyeon Jaedeok's ‘Eomsan-ilgi’ kept in Jangseogak collection consists of 56 volumes in total and the yearbook is recorded with issues of each day. In terms of time frame, the diary was written over 31 years from 1803 to 1833. It is noteworthy that the 24th volume is the diary for year 1812 by his first son and medical officer Hyeon Gap (1790–1814). It appears that keeping a diary was upheld in the family for generations considering the traces of stamped official seal on this old document, the content of the diary, and the diary of Hyeon Jaedeok's second son Hyeon Tak (1813–1887) who was an official interpreter. Thus, it is apparent that this old document was kept in the family until the 19th century by Hyeon Jaedeok’s descendants in an attempt to transmit it to the future generations and was incorporated into the royal literature in Jangseogak collection during the Japanese colonial period.
The diary contains detailed family records centered around Hyeon Jaedeok, such as birth, Gwallye (ceremony for males entering adulthood), and passing of state examination of family members, visits to ancestral graves and memorial services for ancestors. The diary also confirms that Hyeon Jaedeok participated in publishing royal documents as a public official as it contains records related to the work of publishing the revised ‘Wonji (院志)’ of Naeuiwon (內醫院), the fair copy of ‘Soilgi (小日記) of Euiyakcheong (議藥廳), ‘Yeolseong-eoje, (列聖御製)’ and ‘Hongjaejeonseo. (弘齋全書)’ Chronologically, ‘Eomsan-Ilgi’ precedes other known living diaries by middle class family who lived in Seoul for generations. Given its rich content, the diary should be an important reference for future research in various areas related to the life, clothing and literature of middle class people in the Joseon Dynasty.
