Abstract
Dance and Pedigree of Nho (能) : Focusing on Nho (能) ×

Zeami (世阿弥) completed sophisticated and elegant Nho (能) centered at songs and dances (歌舞) by developing No that has been centered at fact-oriented performance. Although dance of Nho sometimes expresses realistic performance, most of the dance movements themselves are stylistic and abstract without specific meaning. However, the fact that the movement does not have specific meaning implies that it has limitless power of expression where any meaning can be expressed according to the script and dancer’s capacity. Nho(能) in Gonparu Zenpo (金春禅鳳) that this paper examines contains unique dance performance that differs from other previous dance pedigree of Nho. This paper examines the acceptance pattern of Ikkakuseonyin tale by focusing on its entertaining factors and investigates the pedigree of dance performance of Nho from an aspect of dance history of Nho. Nho is composed of a story flow where Sea God appears to fight with Seonyin after the dance by Madam Senda and finally let the rain falls. As a result, Madam Senda’s dance that liberated Sea God and triggered rainfall can be said to be identical to the dances praying for rain by female shaman that has been performed in various places in Japan from ancient times. Meanwhile, an anecdote that describes the opportunity that Shizukagozen (静御前) obtained the praise of the best dancer in Japan gives a good example for understanding the meaning of Madam Senda’s dance. In this story, while people are concerned with drought all over the country, Shizukagozen performed dance named Shirabyoshi in Shincheonwon and pleased Sea God to let the rain fall. Dance of Shizukagozen can also be interpreted as the same meaning as Madam Senda’s dance, which becomes the Abstract 26 제41호momentum that liberates dragon and triggers rain in Nho . Dance that can be seen in Nho is ‘Aimai (相舞)’ by Madam Senda and Ikkakuseonyin, where the two perform the dance in the same form. However, instead of dancing in the same form from the beginning, Madam Senda dances alone at first. Then, Seonyin is attracted to Madam’s dance to step on the stage and follows her dance moves. Aimai already existed in the pedigree of dance devised by Zeami, where dancers perform the same dance moves, similar to the dance in Nho . In , the soul of main character Shizukagozen and a woman who is captivated by the sole dance together in the identical form from the beginning. Gonparu Zenpo follows the pedigree of Aimai in Nho on the one hand. On the other hand, it imitates new dance, that is, Madam Senda and newly devises the pattern of expressing the process of synchronizing to the dance.

Abstract
Consideration of Amu of Northern Song in Akseo by Jinyang ×

The purpose of this study is to investigate types, use, and characteristics of Amu (雅舞), as recorded in Akseo (『樂書』, Book on Music) written by Jinyang (陳暘). We focused on how Jinyang accepted Amu of the previous generations in his Akseo, investigated how Amu was divided into several types used in Gyomyo (郊廟) and Johoe (朝會 a morning assembly) in Northern Song, and then presented constructional patterns of Amu and significance of using dancing tools. Amu is a dance performed in grand rituals such as memorial services in Confucian congratulatory ceremonies or National New Year’s fests, indicating a type of dance performed to Aak music. As a form of Ilmu (佾舞, line dance), Amu has a coexistence of civil and military dance and is performed according to the order of a ceremony. The representative titles for pieces of civil and military dance music in Gyosa (郊祀 Border Sacrifice) in Song Dynasty are and . In Ilmu for Johoe, Mundeok and Mukong were selected as civil and military dance but were changed by and , and again by and . Amu indicates a type of Ilmu by standing in lines of four sides. Jinyang argued that two, four, six, and eight days of Amu were for dividing classes such as emperor, lords, nobility, and scholar, while thinking that different grades of Ilmu should be applied on the basis of scales of memorial services. Jinyang perceived that the lines of the dance were a method of expressing succession of the way of Heaven by a ruler. According to him, the dancing tools were objects describing and symbolizing virtues and contribution, and there should be Abstract 54 제41호grades in the tools based on the virtues and contribution of a ruler. In this study we attempted to pave the way to expand denotation of dance studies by researching Aak music, a music that has not been much studied in Korean dance field. The results of this study may serve as basic data for understanding Akmu performed in ritual ceremonies in Joseon related to ceremony culture of Ancient China.

Abstract
A Study on Basic Concepts and Views of Korean Dance Aesthetics ×

This study is a methodology to establish a basic concept of aesthetics of the Korean dance. By examining main concepts of Korean traditional ideas, this study aims to explore the concept of aesthetics in Korean dance in a systematic way. In particular, it interprets the Korean dance based on the foundation of humanities. Accordingly, the study is significant in developing the system of aesthetics of the Korean dance by suggesting philosophical foundations of the Korean dance through the aesthetics study and through history and traditional ideas rather than limited interpretation within the scope of broad east and western aesthetics. The study was progressed in a 3-stage research design. The first stage was to extract the prototype of the ancient arts from Korean national culture in order to comprehend the prototype of the Korean dance. In the first place, examine the original flow of the Korean ideas embedded in the national foundation myths, legend and ancient heavenly ritual, and the study analyzed related languages and terms, then able to expose the clue of the esthetics of the Korean dance. The second stage was examining the spirit of the Korean Dance from the national’s original flow which is embedded in the legend and ancient heavenly ritual, i.e through the world view of ancestors who worshiped the sun and served the heavenly god. And explored the boundary of aesthetics of the Korean dance over ‘Poongryudo’ that is based in the aesthetics of the Korean dance. Lastly, in the third stage, the study establish the basic concept of aesthetics of the Korean Abstract 82 제41호dance from reviewing how the logic of aesthetic ideas, which were generated from specific traditional dances such as Salpurichum, Chunaengjeon and mask dance, granted value in aesthetic sentiment and concept. Aesthetics of the Korean dance is the aesthetics of harmony under the human centered ideas, the aesthetics of freedom which is surrealistic directly related to our life and goes beyond time and space, and the aesthetics of weighing high on the livelihood. Such aesthetics could form today’s aesthetics value and concept by repeated periodic communication. The basic concept of aesthetics of the Korean dance is divided by ‘Sitgim(washed)’ that is reached to god’s purification to release resentment, sorrow, and the dark-side, and ‘Poongryu(tasteful)’, which purposed for purify by lightness, harmonize, animateness, extemporization, flavor, pleasure, etiquette music, and light-hearted, etc. These concepts are generated from the national original culture, can be find from the original flow and the ancient heavenly ritual, and ultimately, both are seeking for the stage of a unity of heaven and man from the purification.

Abstract
A case study on the application possibility by non art-majored teachers for art integrated education ×

This study investigates whether teachers in the field of public elementary education, who did not major in the arts, can actively utilize artistic activities in teaching-learning methods. The subjects of this study were 9 teachers who had not majored in any of the arts. In 2014, from the first class on May 7 to the last class on December 10, for a total of 15 classes, these teachers received a demonstration class, experienced the arts, produced artistic works, and developed programs. The researcher provided time for the subjects to experience artistic education and subsequently develop an educational proposal that could be actively utilized in the educational field. Through this process, the researcher was able to derive the following conclusions. First, it was possible for teachers who had not majored in the arts to develop art-integrated educational programs and because this development was led by teachers, they had no problem applying the programs in the field. However, because there was a premise that such development was made in collaboration with art education experts, discussion regarding collaboration between teachers in active service and experts in art education is needed. Second, as art education is a teaching method for obtaining long-term effects, in order for teachers to actively utilize it in the educational field, priority should be given to teachers to having sufficient artistic experiences and the appropriate environments in which to develop educational proposals. To this end, multi-sided support should be sought, for example, opportunities for long-term training or the development of educational courses and tools.

Abstract
An Essay for a New Value Classification of Community Dance ×

The current study seeks to provide and examine a new value classification of community dance. Community dance, based on dance education, is an act of interacting with others, discovering oneself anew, and gaining confidence through physical movement. It also represents communication based on social common denominators and restoring of interactions that were cut off by the advancement of information and communication technologies. Community dance in Korea is being utilized in various ways: it is an activity that laypersons engage in to get pleasure, be healed, interact with other people, and learn new things. Community dance may be put into the four following categories. First, ‘community dance as performance’ focuses on producing outputs with a sense of ‘community’ being together. It generates new meaning as members of the general public take part in stage performances. In addition, it has attained artistic value by expressing the zeitgeist of different times through interactions with various generations. ‘Community dance as performance’ is distinct in that it has popularized community dance, bringing professional choreographers close to laypersons who dance. It has also given an enhanced sense of completeness with its orientation as performance. Second, ‘community-centered community dance’ has shared the cultural identity of the community through dance and re-produced different communities. As a dance centered around the community for the people of the community, it can discover unique features of the community and tell stories of the people of the community. Third, ‘community dance for unspecified groups of people’ is one that anyone can Abstract 한국 커뮤니티 댄스의 새로운 가치 분류를 위한 시론 211 participate in. It provides opportunities for people of different generations to interact with one another. This category includes various community dances that are hitherto defined differently, and brings together like-minded communities through dance. Fourth, ‘community dance as dance education’ is part of dance education, and provides a space for people to dance together. It helps people to express themselves better, gain self-confidence, think creatively, and enjoy cultures and arts.

Abstract
The Educational Function and Modesty Inherent in Munmyo Ilmu ×

Munmyo-Ilmu (文廟佾舞), the dance which has been danced in Seokjeon-Uirye (釋奠: the rite for laying out offerings) at Sungkyunkwan (成均館) deifying Confucius so far, is distinguished in an aspect of its meaning and value from the dances which are passed down physically through the human body to body. Since Munmyo-Ilmu consists of ritual dancing steps involving the ethics and philosophical ideology of Confucian, its formality and structure are very modest, normative and merged densely with ritual and religious characters of cherish memory and worship. In other words, unlike the purpose of common dances, such as the expression of amusement or emotions and the transformation through a new attempt, Munmyo-Ilmu may be considered as a dance aiming more educational and philosophical origin as ‘order’ and ‘harmony’ penetrating between the universe and human being, or between human beings. While the scholarship dance had been formulated as a dance of the spiritual culture for the mindset, the martial arts dance for physical training. Munmyo-Ilmu is a dance connecting heaven, earth, and human beings each other, expressing gratitude to Confucius and old sages, and sublimating the experiences infused from human life, that is, courtesy and respect among human beings into aesthetic. Sungkyun was the name of school being in charge of music among five colleges of ancient Zhou dynasty, in which educating virtues harmonized with human characters through ‘Akgyo (樂敎music education)’. This Munmyo-Ilmu, which has been danced in Munmyo-Seokjeon-Uirye at Sungkyunkwan, can be considered as ‘the dance of modesty’ being formulated of three passages and four doctrines, which are core contents of Sohak (小學: Confucian disciplinary textbook), underlying Abstract 236 제41호Confucian character education. Furthermore, Munmyo-Ilmu, as a means of communication beyond a ritual dance, creates relationship between God and human being, society and human being, and human being and human being. Munmyo-Ilmu, as courtesies, can be considered as a communicational dance transcending language, a dance of ‘Susujirye (授受之禮: the exchange of courtesies)’ sharing each other’s mind, and a dance symbolizing ‘peace and harmony’.
