이용악 시에 나타난 ‘자연’의 성격과 정동의 구조

Abstract

This paper investigates an aspect of poetic structure of Lee Yong Ak’s poems, by analyzing dynamic elements of natural objects which appear with substitution of poetic objects, as it does not have material body. Poetic object is not only poetic device, but also medium of dynamic elements. The characteristic of poetic object has been identified by external factors, however, dynamics theory provides grounds to identify the characteristic with internal factors, the process of substituting the narrator’s sense. Lee Yong Ak’s poem presents narrator’s affect via “natural objects.” Natural objects can be divided into “prototypical nature” and “historical nature” by phase of establishing relationship with the narrator’s affect. At this point, characteristic of the natural objects are intersected and revivified. In this variation on characteristic of natural objects is followed by the narrator’s internal orientation per se, narrator’s affect and poetic object continuously presents substitution of affect, rather than identification. For example, To the river of the fool strongly evokes historicality of “river” but it emphasizes prototypicality vice versa, and in To Dooman River, you our river, prototypicality of “river” is strongly evoked to arouse historicality vice versa. In the poem It was full of grasshopper sounds, as the expression “it was full of grasshopper sounds” more strongly evokes affect of prototypical nature, the more strongly it is endowed with properties as historical nature. As a narrator in Jeollado Gasinae says that he will disappear “without any song” “without any trail”, natural object that substitutes the narrator’s affect leads to the process to substitute the narrator. Dynamic process lasts via space between poetic object and narrator, without reaching to any decision. Affect is substituted by poetic object because of its immaterial property, which means poetic object cannot be affect itself. Thereby, “disappearing” into “snowstorm,” a natural object, is not a result of being a natural object but the process of being a natural object and at the same time, it shows permanence of the process. To sum up, “grasshopper sound” in It was full of grasshopper sounds and “snowstorm” in Jeollado Gasinae reveals permanence of dynamic process by substituting not only the narrator’s affect but also the narrator perse.
