초록

The Hansi oejeon, written by Hanyoung in the West Han period, is one
of the three annotative books of the Sigyong("the Book of Songs") in the
early stage. The Beopgu biyugyung serves also as an explanatory book for
the Beopgugyung or the Dhammapada("an Anthology of Statements of
Buddha's Teaching"). The Sigyong and the Beopgugyung, the anthologies
respectively of Confucius and Buddhist poems, were difficult to understand,
to the extent that they needed complementary explanations. The Hansi
oejeon and the Beopgu biyugyung, which appeared to meet this demand,
differ from other explanatory books in that they assume the form of
narratives and this characteristic makes them count as literary works.
Although the two books did not influence each other, they share
similarities in many ways. First, as mentioned above, the two texts serve as
annotations on the Sigyong and the Beopgugyung, both of which are
composed only of verses, and have been considered as sacred books in the
Confucius and Buddhist cultures. Secondly, an individual text of the Hansi
oejeon, 310 texts, and the Beopgu biyugyung, 73 texts, consists of a prose
and a verse or more. The prose and verse are based on a metaphoric relation
where the prosaic part functions as a vehicle and verse part does as a tenor.
Thirdly, the prosaic parts of the two books generally assume the form of
parables for common people, specifically non-educated people, to easily
understand the profound meanings of the verses of the sacred books.
On the basis of these similarities, this article intends to compare the two
discourses in terms of genre, polyphonic structure, and the characteristic of
the mixed style of prose and verse. In genre the prosaic parts assume the pattern of didactic narrative mode and verse parts the didactic lyric mode.
This kind of didactic element provides a ground that we can read these
discourses as allegories. As discourses with mixed style of prose and verse,
they can be categorized as "an annotative type" among 6 types of the
mixed-style discourses.
The comparative study on the two texts which, with no influential
relationship with each other, have so many commonalities, reveals an
universal facet of human thought, particularly in religious sphere.
