Ikjae nango (An Incomplete Collection of Ikjae's Manuscripts) is a collection of poems and prose written by Yi Je-hyeon (1287-1367), a distinguished scholar-official of the late Goryeo Dynasty. Containing just two out of the ten fascicles in the original collection, this book is notable for its use of strict writing conventions to honor the rulers of Goryeo (918-1392) and Yuan (1271-1368), although it was published many decades after the fall of the two dynasties. The text also exhibits the use of semi-cursive and cursive scripts and the iteration mark (""), characteristic features of Goryeo writings, and thus constitutes an important source of knowledge on printing and bibliography as well as the studies of Chinese literature in early Joseon.
