| Abstract |
This study is on the King's movement during the political ceremony and also on the architectural norm of JeongJeon the main pavilion of the palace of Joseon dynasty. It needs the analysis on the alternatives of King's movement and comparative study about other palaces of East Asian country such as China, Japan and Vietnam. The ideal concept of royal ritual ceremony is the process that the King who lived in the palace meets the officials who come from outside. So the ritual space has the meaning of border between private and public(or political) area. JeongJeon at JoHa(朝賀,great ceremony), the main gate at JoCham(朝參,every 5 days meeting) and PyeonJeon at SangCham(常參,daily meeting) can be the border of each case and in the ancient idea, every border has the image of the 'gate' as ritual space. According to this concept, King's movement has to be the way from back to front via the rear door and the five mountains' folding screen of main pavilion. |
