전후의 비평 방법론에 대한 반성과 모색 ‑ 고석규를 중심으로

Abstract

This study examines the background in which postwar critics sought new criticism methods. In addition, the aspects and meanings of various criticism methods reflected in Go Seok-gyu's study of the Lee Sang were examined. The biggest change in postwar literature is that the modernization of Korean literature was requested with the emergence of new writers who denied the spiritual center of the people or ethnic literature. This is because the reality that has been ruined by war has shaken traditional values and shaken established order and authority, amplifying the anxiety that the past and the future have become uncertain. Critics who have sensed the changes in postwar literature acknowledge the limitations of their methods of criticism and unfold a discussion on the characteristics and methods of modern criticism. That is why analytical criticism such as psychoanalytic criticism and mystery criticism has been introduced since the mid-1950s. In this process, a group of critics, especially the new generation of critics, who tried to try new criticism, paid attention to Lee Sang's literature. The publication of the complete book of ‘Lee-Sang’ in 1956 served as an opportunity to study Lee sang’s literature from various perspectives. Go Seok-Gyu is a representative critic who has published a number of ideals along with Lee Eo-Ryeong. His discussions were used as a process to develop the theory into his own critique methodology, along with clarifying the characteristics of Lee-Sang’s literature.
