연정가사의 형성 배경에 대하여

Abstract

This paper tries to newly call love songs between male and female in Jo-seon Dynasty <Yeon-jeong-ga-sa>, in contrast to the conventional definition, namely <Ae-jeong-ga-sa>. In addition, it aims to investigate the background of formation of these songs. Until now, there has been a strong assumption that these kind of songs had been written in late Dynasty, in that there has been not nearly made love songs because the Jo-seon Dynasty adopted Confucianism as a common moral and a political philosophy. However, I found that there have been 71 love songs through investigating the related books and materials which have been still available. On the basis of above discussions, I categorized the formation background of <Yeon-jeong-ga-sa> in both early and late Jo-seon into two types. While I dealt with the general trend, that is open description of sex, in literature and art in the perspective of outside influences, I did the method of creation and narration in early love songs, and progressive emotion of female writers in the view of inside impact. Particularly, regarding the inside impact, I confirmed that <Yeon-jeong- ga-sa> was much influenced by the skill of praise in the <Mi-in-byeol -gok>, the recognization of feminism in the <Won-bu-sa> and the method of narration in the <Sa-mi-in-gok> and the <Sok-mi-in-gok>.
