title: [Comparison of Dongeuisoosebowon sasung caobenjuan (The Four Constitutional Medicine of A Draft Volume of Longevity and Life Preservation in Eastern Medicine) and Dongeuisoosebowon (Longevity and Life Preservation in Eastern Medicine)].
abstract: In 1894, Lee Je-ma finished the book Dongeuisoosebowon sasung caobenjuan (The Four Constitutional Medicine of A Draft Volume of Longevity and Life Preservation in Eastern Medicine), and later, in 1900, he started revising the book. However, he passed away and didn't finish his work. In 1901, Lee's disciples edited the revised edition, and published it in the title Dongeuisoosebowon (Longevity and Life Preservation in Eastern Medicine). Some hand-copied versions of Dongeuisoosebowon sasung caobenjuan were still available. After comparing these two books, it was found that Lee's disciples made rather more changes: including addition of its contents, adjustment of its order, modification of the texts and prescriptions, etc. By comparison, the contents in the hand-copied edition more closely reflects Lee's recognition on the Sasung Euihak (Four-Constitution medicine), while those of the published ones were deleted a bulk of the original contents of the Four-Constitutional medicine, yet supplemented much contents of traditional Chinese medicine.
