Examined in this article are the new Sohak-based publications (“Continuations”) that emerged in the 18th century, which let us have a glimpse into the internal discussions and aspirations of the academic circle of Joseon. Analyzed in particular are Daedong Sohak and Dong’hyeon Hakchik, which were also the very first ones to be published in their kind and were eventually followed by many other Sohak incarnations. These two books, as they were both based on Ju Hi’s original Sohak, generally featured basic similarities, while also displaying distinctive differences from each other. As they were authored(and compiled) respectively by a Westerner and a Southerner, they tended to quote writings of other members of their own schools, creating stark differences from each other in both priorities and nuances. Added to that, while Daedong Sohak placed an emphasis upon the importance of establishing and maintaining a ‘paternal’ clan order by elaborating upon the meaning and boundaries of the concept of filial piety, Dong’hyeon Hakchik reflected a mind set of honoring ‘both’ parents and at the same time synchronizing filial piety obligations with obligatory loyalty that should be observed in a king-vassal relationship, as we can see from its citing of ‘extraordinary stories’ and also its keen interest in actual execution of one’s intentions In the meantime, both books, which were all composed of contents that had been inside the ‘Outer section’ of Ju Hi’s original Sohak, which contained ‘Memorable Words’ and ‘Benevolent Deeds,’ reflected the atmosphere of the time by filling themselves dominantly with “Joseon stories” which were expected to inspire and enlighten the Joseon readers much more easily and effectively.
