17世纪朝鲜人赵完璧和金大璜的安南之旅

Zo Wan Byeok's and Kim Dae Hwang's Journeys to Annam in the 17^(th) Century

在明清时期的东亚世界,朝鲜和安南同处于中华天子主导的朝贡秩序之中,两国使臣在北京诗文交流,但间接认知终究有限。17世纪的两次意外将朝鲜人赵完璧和金大璜送至安南,对安南的风土人物仔细观察,将真实的安南信息带回了朝鲜,引起了士人的巨大热情。繁荣的海洋贸易使得朝鲜人对安南的认知从间接走向直观。朝鲜王朝对海洋贸易并无兴趣,恪守朝贡秩序,因金大璜打开的与安南直接交流之门迅速合拢,重新回归朝、越燕行使在北京的间接交流之中。

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, both Joseon and Annam were tributary states of China. Although their envoys had some literary exchanges in Beijing, the understanding between these two states was still limited. In the 17^(th) century, two Joseon men, named Zo Wan Byeok and Kim Dae Hwang, arrived in Annam by chance. They presented an accurate view of Annam when they returned to Joseon, which aroused great interest among its literati. The thriving maritime trade enabled Joseon people to have a better knowledge of Annam. Since the Joseon Court was not interested in maritime trade and it stuck to the tributary order, the door for direct communication with Annam, which was opened by Kim Dae Hwang, was soon closed, and everything returned to the original state.
