Abstract

This study examines the stage of "literary structure and literary image" in the process of making《 P’ungnang ŭl ttul’ko》(T hroughout the Storm) production by Ch’oe Sŭng-hŭi in 1949. When she made a dance production, Ch’oe Sŭng-hŭi wrote a scenario for her work. She coined the term, "literary structure and literary image, " to call such scenario-writing process. As for《 P’ungnang ŭl ttul’ko》 "literary structure and literary image" could be considered as a modified genre, which was adjacent to epic, as it accomplished excellent literary quality. The scenario of《 P’ungnang ŭl ttul’ko》contains not only the elements of an epic such as the dramatic, the lyric, and the epic but also stanzas and lines. Also, it has language that shows poetic tension. Therefore, the scenario of《 P’ungnang ŭl ttul’ko》should be considered as a short epic poem. At the same time, the scenario of《 P’ungnang ŭl ttul’ko》includes the elements that are not originally "poetic" such as using the lyrics of a folk song and describing the specific movements designed for the dance performance. These charcteristics position the scenario of 《P’ungnang ŭl ttul’ko》as a modified genre which is adjacent to epic. The excellent literary values of the scenario for《 P’ungnang ŭl ttul’ko》show that Ch’oe Sŭng-hŭi was a multi-talented artist, and recognizing the characteristics of "literary structure and literary image" lead to wider understanding of Ch’oe Sŭng-hŭi's artistic method. Also, considering scenario for dance production as an autonomous genre can extend the horizons of literature and art.
