이글은 아직 학계에 잘 알려지지 않은 인물인 靜坐窩 沈潮의 생애와 교유관계를 구성하고 그가 37세 때 지은 장편고시 「幽居述懷」를 분석한 것이다. 정좌와 심조는 25세 때 寒水齋 權尙夏에게 공부하였고 여기에서 성리학에서 손꼽는 인물들인 南唐 韓元震, 屛溪 尹鳳九 등 많은 학자들을 만났다. 한수재 권상하는 尤庵 宋時烈의 제자로 인물성이론을 주장한 인물이다. 한수재는 黃江 문하 8학사를 배출하는데 巍巖 李柬, 陶庵 李縡, 黎湖 朴弼周, 杞園 魚有鳳, 南唐 韓元震, 屛溪 尹鳳九, 梅峯 崔徵厚, 鳳巖 蔡之洪이 그들이다. 심조는 한수재 문하에서 이들과 만나 교유하고 학문을 넓혔으며 스승의 학설을 이어 인물성이론을 주장하였다. 그리고 남당 한원진과 가장 깊은 학문적 교유를 하였으며 남당으로 한원진을 찾아가 공부하기도 하였다. 심조는 경종이 즉위하며 시국이 바뀌자 과거 공부를 폐하고 학문에 전념하기로 마음을 굳히고 평생 동안 강학하였다. 「유거술회」에서는 초년기 학문에 뜻을 두게 된 경위와 한수재를 만났을 때의 기쁨과 공부 상황, 그리고 남당 한원진과의 인간적 학문적 교유, 그리고 학문에 눈을 뜬 다음 학문에 대한 의지 등이 잘 나타나 있어 전반기 심조의 생애와 지향을 확인할 수 있었다. 우리는 이를 통하여 역사의 전면에 드러나지는 않았지만 학문에 심취하여 평생 학문을 강하였으며 자신의 신념대로 살다간 조선의 한 학자 상을 발견할 수 있다.
This study reconstructed the life and association relationships of Jeongjwawa Shimjo, who has not been known widely in the academic circle, and analyzed his long ancient poem Yugeosulhoi that he composed at the age of 37. Jeongjwawa Shimjo studied under Hansoojae Kwon Sang‐ha at the age of 25, and there he met many prominent Neo‐Confucian scholars including Namdang Han Won‐jin and Byeonggye Yoon Bong‐goo. Hansoojae Kwon Sang‐ha is a student of Uam Song Si‐yeol, and advocated Inmulseongiron (the theory that man and animals have different nature). Hansoojae taught 8 scholars under Hwang Gang, who were Oiam Lee Gan, Doam Lee Jae, Yeoho Park Pil‐joo, Giwon Eo Yoo‐bong, Namdang Han Won‐jin, Byeonggye Yoon Bong‐goo, Maebong Choi Jing‐hoo, and Bongam Chae Ji‐hong. Shimjo met them while he was under the Hansoojae, extended his scholarship through associating with them, and inheriting his teacher’s theory, he supported Inmulseongiron. Moreover, he had the most profound scholastic association with Namdang Han Won‐jin, and he sometimes visited Han Won‐jin and studied together. As King Gyeongjong was enthroned and political situation was changed, he made a firm decision to give up the civil service examination and committed his whole life in learning and teaching. Yugeosulhoi reveals clearly how he came to be inclined to scholarship at his early age, how happy he was when he met Hansoojae and how he studied with him, his humane scholastic association with Namdang Han Won‐jin, his will toward scholarship after opening his eyes to learning, etc. Through the poem, therefore, we can reconstruct his life and inclinations during his early days. Although he did not stand out in the foreground of history, we can found the image of a scholar of the Chinese classics in the Joseon Dynasty who, fascinated with scholarship, devoted his entire life to learning and teaching and lived as he believed
