에코페미니즘의 지향과 여성성의 복원 － 강은교의 시세계 －

Abstract

This thesis aims to prove meaning of the poetry of KangEun Gyo. Especially I focused on ecofeminism and motherhood. Ecofeminism is a progressive theory that criticizes fundamentally inequality and oppression occuring in most of relations including ruling and subordination, man and woman, human and nature and responds practically. Ecofeminism is fundamentally sprit indwelling in men’s attitude on living and death. A study on the Ecofeminism in the literature is, however, insufficient because of much misunderstanding on the matter of ecology and feminism. This thesis, study on KangEun Gyo’s poetry through ecofeminism is written for clarifying recognition of body, nature, and the origin of feminity value. KangEun Gyo ’s poetry has the symbol of nature in plenty and the ecological ideology of life that all living things are very important each other equally. She pursues such primitive orderly world as divine nature. It appears that ecofeminism is one of the recursive instincts toward divine nature. She finds the divinity of nature and the power of life, in addition to he is empathic on participating in ego as a small universe actively. Erotism is in action nature, it is an ability of recognizing energy, divine nature, divinity, symbol of archetype. ‘Motherhood’restored by KangEun Gyo is a practitioner of sufficient love, who provides nutrients to an unproductive world and embraces the dying and humble. Ecofeminism perspective of KangEun Gyo’poetry has the strong life consciousness and female insight. The native place in the poetic world of Ecofeminism is symbolic space of divine world and it represents the original recursive place which can revive the original self, body, and cosmos.
