전통제례에 관한 고찰

The purpose of this study was to relate confucian ideas in Chosun-Dynasty with ancestral rites in order to recover our traditional rules of propriety and morality which is disappeared in mordern society. For this object, this study reviewed ceremonies of traditional society in examining original literature such as $\ulcorner$Kyung-moon-yokyal$\lrcorner$ by Lee Yul Kok, $\ulcorner$Karae-geep-ram$\lrcorner$, $\ulcorner$Oee-rae-mun-hae$\lrcorner$y Kim Jang Saeng, $\ulcorner$Sarae-pyun-ram$\lrcorner$ by Lee Jae which is written in Chosun-Dynasty. By this literatures, the main idea of ancestral rites represented in literture is that filial piety is the most important thing and a true heart rather emphasized more than formality. From this study, I figured out that our traditional ancestral rites and its performance offered the mode군 good opportunities to learn how to respect other and made a great contribution to create better cultural life in modern home.
