인물 찬(讚)⋅사물 찬(讚)의 칭송 담화 비교 분석과 그 교육적 의미

초록

This study focuses on chan (讚), a subgenre within the Chinese literary style songchanryu (頌讚類), and aims to compare and analyze the commendatory discourse of “person chan” and “object chan,” while exploring their educational implications. Among the chan texts contained in Dongmunseon (東文選) and Sokdongmunseon (續東文選), nineteen works (seven person chan and twelve object chan) were selected for analysis, excluding those with strong political or religious ideologies or ambiguous classifications. The analysis revealed that “person chan” typically employs a deed–moral evaluation strategy, characterized by a narrative attitude emphasizing modesty and propriety, and expressing respect and communal sentiment. In contrast, “object chan” adopts a trait–virtue transformation strategy, marked by a narrative stance of experiential coexistence and emotional tones of empathy and intimacy. Based on these findings, the study confirms that chan texts can effectively foster several core competencies in the Korean language curriculum— critical and creative thinking, communication, interpersonal and community engagement, cultural appreciation, and self-reflection. In this way, chan serves as a medium that connects persons and objects, reason and emotion, and aesthetic and ethical values, demonstrating how language perceives, expresses, and collectively shares virtue. Thus, the study recontextualizes this classical literary style as a meaningful educational resource for contemporary language education.
