유치환 시의 숭고미 연구 -초기시를 중심으로

Abstract

This thesis aims to look into the Sublime of aesthetics on the Yu ChiHwan's poetry and its significance in the history of literature in 1930's. Yu Chi Hwan who has actively written poems since 1931 has continuosllygotten good attentions and remarks from the critics. They estimated thathis work accomplished higher state in poetic message. In these remarks from the contemporaries, this thesis was written forthe purpose of looking into the basic paradigm of his poeticconsciousness, which was revealed by researching into the aestheticcharacter of poetic mood mecanically accompanied with pose andtrans-process of world perspective of the persona. This study is to dealwith most to The book of life(1947). He tried out new forms of poetry and wrote important works. He triedto invesgate the issue of life and death, an essential human predicament,by making 「The flag」. The serial poem in 1930's suggests a strong imageand tone in its structure and thinking style. Thus, in this thesis, I shallilluminate and analyze the unconsciously presented prototype of the selfimage in the poems, so as to reveal the nihilism of self-torture meanings. I shall also examine the existential meanings that Yu Chi Hwan tries toobtain through his nihilistic poetic mood. He wrote some love story poems, but he emphasizes self-mortification. The third chapter reviews the poetic examination of objective out-sideworld beyond gap and isolation placed on the self and the world. Thistransition of poetic perception is closely related with the attitude of thepersona which transmits a point of view from an abstractive andnon-existential space to a concrete and common space. In later Yu Chi Hwan's work, he has attemped to freedom and redemtionin the consciousness of poem through nihilism and vital usages. The usageof the persona based by a pervaded inside consciousness purposes toencounter the life, the world, and the self which have arrived at whatthe speaker has thought of the essential in them by getting out of thenon-existential absorbed in the common. By this perception of the world, the poet can acquire more intenseand strong poetic consciousness. So many readers accept the sublimeon his poetry.
