多田正知 가집 연구의 방향 고찰

Abstract

This article is for considering how a collection of poems in 1930s underwent canonization by looking up the research results of Tada Masatomo, the Japanese scholar residing in Joseon. Tada Masatomo had submitted around 30 theses about Joseon Literature while residing in Korea. Nevertheless, there has been no interest so far by academic world. Hence, this article has inspected trend of poem research in 1930s to examine the research results of Tada Masatomo. The trend of poem research at those days was just republishing the existing collections of poems, collecting classic Sijo, publishing anthology, and finally led to criticism of research of the time. The poem collection research of Tada Masatomo was based on much more empirical and systematic way than Jo Yunje in the same period. The remarkable point in his research activities was that he considered the collection of poems as a song. In other words, he did not take poem collections as reading materials but paid attention to the poem collections as singing materials on the spot. In short, the research of poem collection by Tada Masatomo kept a close eye on musicality and literary value of Sijo.
