Abstract

|
|
|
The Diary of Muk-Jae is a historical record that describes many social aspects of the Joseon period in the 16th century. It records many scenes of its author, Lee Mun-Geon, treating patients. This paper uses The Diary of Muk-Jae to examine changes in the perception of the concept of cold damage and the text of the Shanghanlun (Treatise on Cold Damage) in the Joseon period in the 16th century. In The Diary of Muk-Jae, cold damage is understood in connection with two categories: ‘dangerous disease’ and ‘disease caused by cold’. The Diary of Muk-Jae also presents the Shanghanlun not as a work limited to the concept of cold damage, but as a medical text that could be widely used for many different diseases. Thus, The Diary of Muk-Jae may represent a point of transition between in the perception of cold damage as seen in the Uibang Yuchui (The Collection of Medical Procedures) of the 15th century and the Donguibogam of the 17th century.
