Here we investigate the possibility that the guest star that appeared near Cas A in 1592{1593 in Korean history books could have been an `impostor' of the Cas A SN, i.e., a luminous transient that appeared to be a SN but did not destroy the progenitor star, with strong mass loss to have provided extra circumstellar extinction. We first review the Korean records and show that a spatial coincidence between the guest star and Cas A cannot be ruled out, as opposed to previous studies. Based on modern astrophysical findings on core-collapse SN, we argue that Cas A could have had an impostor and derive its anticipated properties. It turned out that the Cas A SN impostor must have been bright (MV = −14:7 ± 2:2 mag) and an amount of dust with visual extinction of ≥ 2:8 ± 2:2 mag should have formed in the ejected envelope and/or in a strong wind afterwards.

  • A Study on the Change of Gojong（高宗）七architectural
    ARCHITECTURAL RESEARCH, Vol. 20, No. i（March 2018）. pp. 1-8 pISSN 1229-6163 elSSN 2383-5575 A Study on the Change of Gojong（高宗 ） 七 Architectural View and the Aspect of the Constructions of Architectures Working: Through the Change of the Architectures in the Royal Palace Dongchun Seo Department of Architecture, Hanyang University, Seoul, Korea https://doi.org/10.5659/AIKAR.2018.20.L1 Abstract Gojong（高宗 ）had experienced extravagant change during a period of reign and he was located in the center of the change. He was the king who also experienced various changes in construction and accomplished a large number of construction activities aggressively. Gojong could acquire the information and details about anarchitecture, through the experience of a lot of large-scale construction activities in a regency period of Heungseon-Daewongun（興宣大院君 ）.After opening of a port, as the western culture and technology was flowed in Korea, the knowledge of western architecture also was introduced. Gwanmungak（觀 文閣 ）was constructed in Kyeongbokgung Palace under that influence in 1888, but the construction was not successfully finished. Due to the failure of Gwanmungak, Gojong no more constructed a western architecture until 1897. He was aware of the merits of western architectures while living in the western architecture during Agwanpacheon（俄館播遷 ）.And he led a lot of constructions of the western architectures in Kyeongungung（慶運宮 ）.It is possible to arrange in two reasons about the interest in an architecture of Gojong. Firstly, Gojong was individually interested in the architectures, and he constantly accomplished constructions of new buildings from childhood. And secondly, Gojong thought that western architecture has an advantage in the international situations.

  • Historical Information Systems Administered by the Korean Public Sector - Present and New Challenges
    Historical Information Systems Administered by the Korean Public Sector - Present and New Challenges- Kim Hyeon This article is purported for reviewing the present historical material databases funded by the Korean government and suggesting solutions for improving database services and providing researchers of Korean studies with more use- ful and convenient digital resources. In Korea, Historical Information Systems were funded by the Ministry of Information and Communication, and were carried out by twelve public insti- tutions. These databases currently contain 6.53 million digital materials, which are all provided for free to information users all around the world as well as those in Korea. The database construction project for Korean historical materials covers overall Korean history to allow much easier and more convenient access to research materials than in the past. However, the current historical information system has many problems to be improved. Among them, the most urgent mat- ter to be addressed is the enhancement of interoperability between databases. The practical method to increase interoperability is to have institutions make metadata that explicitly describe the content and format of their databases and share them with other institutions. A technological standard for a Metadata Registry was suggested to enhance interoperability between independent systems. Since the Metadata Registry is purported for information resources that belong to a certain knowledge field, it must be made and run by those with deep knowledge and expertise in the regarded field. In order to have the Historical Information Systems play the leading role in promoting the free communication of high quality information on traditional Korean culture in cyber space, facilitating mutual understanding of history and information tech- nology is very important.

Knowing the calendar day of the past is particularly crucial for studying the history of a clan or a nation. To verify previous studies in the calendar day of the Joseon dynasty (1392 – 1910), we investigate the sexagenary cycle of the new moon day (i.e., the first day in a lunar month) by using sources such as results of the calculations using the Datong calendar (a Chinese Calendar of the Ming Dynasty) and the data of Baekjungryeok (a Perpetual Calendar; literally, a one hundred-year almanac). Compared with the study of Ahn et al., we find that as many as 17 sexagenary cycles show discrepancies.

  • Law and the Body in Joseon Korea: Statecraft and the Negotiation of Ideology
    Articles Law and the Body in Joseon Korea: Statecraft and the Negotiation of Ideology Anders Karlsson The Review of Korean Studies Volume 16 Number 1 (June 2013): 7-45 ©2013 by the Academy of Korean Studies. All rights reserved. 8 The Review of Korean Studies Must we really sever people’s toes to uphold the law? —King Yeongjo Introduction Joseon dynasty criminal law and punishment was once considered almost exclusively to be the domain of legal scholars, but it is now attracting increasing attention from social, political and intellectual historians of Korea.1 Through these recent historical studies of not only the conspicuous and the ubiquitous social aspects of punishment and its political context, but also cosmological and moral-philosophical aspects of criminal law, a more comprehensive and historically contextualised picture of the Confucian legal culture of traditional Korea is slowly emerging. These works give a positive evaluation of the role of law in Joseon-period Confucian statecraft and observe a relative shift from ‘rule by virtue’ to ‘rule by law’ towards the latter part of the dynasty. In many of the reforms of the period they observe ideologically driven efforts to curtail the influence of the yangban elite and protect the interest of the common people (eokgang buyak 抑强扶弱), as well as an increasing reluctance to resort to cruel forms of punishment. The understanding of legal scholars often differs. Although not adhering to the view that could be seen in early scholarship—in which pre-modern Korean law was predominantly dismissed simply as a tool for arbitrary and oppressive social control or subject to unfavourable comparisons with the alleged standards of Western legal culture2—legal scholarship still predominantly focuses on the ideological emphasis on rule by virtue and the personal legal power of * This work was supported by the Academy of Korean Studies (KSPS) Grant funded by the Korean Government (MOE) (AKS-2011-BAA-2104).

    Journal for History of Mathematics http://dx.doi.org/10.14477/jhm.2018.31.2.055 Vol. 31 No. 2 (Apr. 2018), 55–72 Jo Tae-gu’s Juseo Gwan-gyeon and Jihe Yuanben 趙泰耉의 籌書管見과 幾何原本 Hong Sung Sa 홍성사 Hong Young Hee 홍영희 Kim Chang Il* 김창일 Matteo Ricci and Xu Gwangqi translated the first six Books of Euclid’s Elements and published it with the title Jihe Yuanben, or Giha Wonbon in Korean in 1607. It was brought into Joseon as a part of Tianxue Chuhan in the late 17th century. Recognizing that Jihe Yuanben deals with universal statements under deductive reasoning, Jo Tae-gu completed his Juseo Gwan-gyeon to associate the traditional mathematics and the deductive inferences in Jihe Yuanben. Since Jo served as a minister of Hojo and head of Gwansang-gam, Jo had a comprehensive understand- ing of Song–Yuan mathematics, and hence he could successfully achieve his objec- tive, although it is the first treatise of Jihe Yuanben in Joseon. We also show thathe extended the results of Jihe Yuanben with his algebraic and geometric reasoning. Keywords: Euclid’s Elements, Jihe Yuanben (幾何原本, 1607), Matteo Ricci (利瑪竇, 1552–1610), Xu Guangqi (徐光啓, 1562–1633), Jo Tae-gu (趙泰耉, 1660–1723), Juseo Gwan-gyeon (籌書管見, 1718) MSC: 01A13, 01A25, 01A27, 11D09, 12–03, 26–03 1 Introduction As is well known, Matteo Ricci (利瑪竇, 1552–1610) of the Society of Jesus made a great impact on the development of the western astronomy and mathematics in China [15, 16]. Since his arrival in Zhaoqing (肇慶) of Guangdong (廣東) in 1582, Ricci published Zuchuan Tianzhu Shijie (祖傳天主十誡, 1584), Yudi Shanhai Quantu (輿地山海全圖, 1584) in Zhaoqing and then Jiaoyou Lun (交友論, 1595) in Nanchang (南昌), Siyuan Xinglun (四元行論, 1599–1600) and Shanhai Yudi Quantu (山海輿地全 圖, 1600) in Nanjing (南京)[15].
