Abstract

|
|
This study investigates the life of Benjamin Hobson(ùêãá, 1816.1.2-1873.2.13) -the writer of five books of western medicine which influenced the establish of ¡¸ShinGiCheonHeom(ãóѦôÂúÐ)¡¹-in order to expand our base to study ¡¸ShinGiCheonHeom¡¹. Findings and results of the investigation are as follows. 1. Treatise on Physiology(¡ºîïô÷ãæÖå¡») excited a deeper interest among the Chinese literati and was so eagerly sought after that a reprint of it was made for sale. The income of works of Hobson¡¯s probably excited a deeper interest among the Korean literati also. 2. We found Hobson had written many works. Among those we must pay attention to A Medical Vocabulary in English and Chinese; (¡ºì¢ùÊçÈü¤í®à·¡»)Through this book we can reach agreeable translation of ¡ºShinGiCheonHeom¡». 3. Evangelism and philanthropism promoted activities of Hobson as a doctor and as a an introducer of western medicine. But ignorance of oriental medicine-Hobson thought medical science in China was at a low level-lied in these activities and passion to do it. Nowadays we must wipe out thought of this way through the scientific way.
