Sangjejimnyakpanmok

Sangjejimnyakpanmok refers to the printing woodblocks of the Sangjejimnyak (Compendium of Mourning and Ancestral Rites), a text on funeral and ancestral rites written by the late Joseon scholar Gwon Sun-gyeong (1676–1746). The full set comprises 66 blocks with 132 printed pages. The blocks were carved in 1863, the fourteenth year of King Cheoljong, by Gwon Sun-gyeong's fifth-generation descendants Gwon Ju-sin and Gwon Ho-sin, among others. The printing surfaces are made of pear wood, and the end pieces of pine. The Sangjejimnyak comprises four chapters bound in two volumes: the first three cover mourning rites, and the last covers ancestral rites. It includes a preface written by Kim Dae-jin in 1863, a table of contents, and the author's own preface, written by Gwon Sun-gyeong in 1741, the seventeenth year of King Yeongjo. The blocks were originally kept at Yongsanjeong Pavilion in Yonggye-ri, Gilan-myeon, Andong, North Gyeongsang Province, and were moved in 1950 to the block-storage hall at Gubongjaesa Hall in Heukseok-dong, Daejeon. They are now on deposit at the Daejeon Metropolitan Museum. At Gubongjaesa, the 66 blocks of Sangjejimnyak were kept together with the 45 blocks of Yongcheollyeongo. The arrangement of the Sangjejimnyak's contents followed the model of the Garye (Family Rites), while its supplementary sections drew on Kim Jang-saeng's Sangnyebiyo (Essentials of Mourning Rites). At the end of each entry the author added annotations on the biographies of Chinese scholars and the theories of earlier Korean Confucian scholars concerning ritual propriety, as well as his own opinions.
