{孰遂念}의 공간 설계와 문학적 사유

Abstract

The collection of works by Hong Gil-ju(洪吉周) shows his view on literature in visible form. "Suksoonyeom" is the most radical form among them. He made a structure, that is 'Suksoonyeom' to organically allocate works in various genres and types. 'Suksoonyeom' is a space. This space was designed as another world overlapping on real world as 'Second world.' This space design of "Suksoonyeom" allows new thinking on literature. As he designed "Suksoonyeom" as another world overlapping on real world, he could understand the relation between real world and ideal/linguistic structure as the relation between actual existence and shadow. Also, this space design opened the possibility that the linguistic structure world could be independent and self-sufficient space from real world. Therefore, the absolute relation between signifiant and signifie was dissolved and the intrinsic nature of literature can be recognized as the thing which is consistently created by combination and recombination of signs. Therefore, the existence of 'original' is denied in his view of literature, and continuous production of copy, that is the activity of literature itself only can be left. It is natural that final truth does not exist in this view of literature. The frame allows all these things started from the space design shown by the "Suksoonyeom." However, Hong Gil-ju seemed not to take the this ideas to the extreme. He often stop in the middle. This may be the limitation of the time he lived in.
