김춘수 무의미시의 정체성 재규정 - 시기 범주의 조정과 사전적 의미의 탐색을 통한

Abstract

This study aims to redefine the identity of Kim Chun-soo’s nonsense poetry. Since nonsense poetics was announced in the overheated dispute of pure and engagement literature in the 1970s, the definition of the identity of nonsense poetry was a controversial issue in the history of modern Korean poetry. Advocates for nonsense poetry turn away their faces from the evaluation that they are imitators of surrealists in terms of conformist view of history and formality, concerning the contents proposed by negativists presented. Likewise, negativists cover Chun-soo Kim’s unique creative tendency with his political tendency and surrealist theory. What should be premised to solve this contention is objective information about nonsense poetry and the lexical definition of nonsense poetry. The strictness of this job will provide the right starting point for other discourses surrounding literary texts. This study carries out the following procedures in order to redefine the identity of nonsense poetry: First, it is the adjustment of the category of the period of nonsense poetry. It will closely analyze various contexts, including nonsense poetics and explore the period of nonsense poetry that appears finally in the phased procedures. Second, it will look into the lexical definition of nonsense poetry to consider the similarity to and difference from Chun-soo Kim’s nonsense poetics. Third, through a comparison between his works in the redefined period and the lexical definition of nonsense poetry, the identity of nonsense poetry will be redefined. Of course, all these studies premise the following: first, nonsense poetry has formal uniqueness in the genre of poetry; second, this formal uniqueness is consistent with the lexical definition of nonsense poetry; and third, in the history of Chun-soo Kim’s poetry, this uniqueness appears only in a certain period.
