Introduction
Korean philosophy presents basic and sweeping insights into the nature of human beings and their ways of communal life in society as well as the constitution of reality. Over the past two thousand years or so, it has been gradually developing on the Korean peninsula and its adjacent areas sandwiched by the Chinese landmass to the north and the Japanese archipelago to the south. For traditional Korean philosophers, philosophy and its actual practice in communal life typically go hand in hand. Korean Buddhism, Confucianism, and other philosophies are, by their very nature, practically oriented, regardless of any shortcomings they are occasionally perceived to have. The first philosophical thinking began in the Three Kingdoms Period. The period (57 CE to the seventh century CE) sees the beginning of recorded history in ancient Korea. These centuries saw the kingdoms of Paekche, Koguryŏ, and Silla in incessant contention (as well as cooperation) with each other and China for the purpose of territorial conquest. The Korean states originally practiced shamanism or indigenous Korean beliefs (IKB for short). They gradually accepted first Confucianism and then Daoism as well as Buddhism transmitted through China, making the last the official state religion at the end of the period. In the eighth century, the three kingdoms were unified by Silla in alliance with Tang China. Silla was later taken over in 918 by the highly Buddhist Koryŏ. Finally, the Neo-Confucian Chosŏn (1392–1910) ruled almost five hundred years before the modern period began. Accordingly, “Chosŏn Philosophy” refers to the one actively sought from 1392 to the Kap’o Reformation for modernization in 1894 toward the end of the dynasty. For the sake of classificatory convenience, “modern philosophy” in Korea refers to the system of thoughts produced from Kap’o Reformation to the beginning of the Republic of Korea (South Korea) and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea) (1948). All the philosophies generated since then and up to now will be regarded as contemporary philosophy. So here are the five types of Korean philosophy in its historical development: ancient philosophy, Koryŏ philosophy, Chosŏn philosophy, modern philosophy, contemporary philosophy. This article employs the McCune-Reischauer Method (MR here after) for the Romanization of Korean characters but occasionally the Revised Romanization Method (RR hereafter) is used parenthetically.
