초록

본 연구는 시인과 지역이 밀접하게 연결되어 있다는 일반적인 가설에서 출발하여, 지역의 경계를 넘어서 “국제적” 모더니즘의 중심에 있는 예이츠와 엘리엇의 작품에서 특정 지역이 갖는 의의를 논의한다. 본고는 이 두 시인이 자신의 기원을 염두에 두고 최후 매장지로 선택한 장소, 예이츠의 슬라이고와 엘리엇의 이스트 코우커를 중점적으로 다룬다. 슬라이고와 이스트 코우커와 관련된 이들의 전기적 사실과 편지를 검토하고 이 지역들이 예이츠의 시와 엘리엇의 「이스트 코우커」에 어떻게 재현되고 있는지를 탐구하는 과정에서, 두 시인의 흥미로운 비교점이 드러날 것이다. 예이츠의 슬라이고 카운티 경험은 슬라이고 지명과 신화적 인물과 같은 구체적인 배경과 자료를 제공하고, 슬라이고에 관한 그의 시에는 현실과 신화가 공존한다. 반면에, 「이스트 코우커」에서 엘리엇은 자신과 그의 조상들과 연관된 이스트 코우커 마을이 환기하는 상징적‧형이상학적인 의미를 탐색한다. 아울러 본고는 현재의 슬라이고와 이스트 코우커의 분위기가 21세기 예이츠와 엘리엇 독자에게 어떻게 작용하는지에 대한 소견으로 마무리한다.

Abstract

Starting with a general assumption that poets and regions are closely connected, this study discusses the significance of specific locales in the works of Yeats and Eliot, who are at the center of “international” modernism beyond regional boundaries. This paper focuses on Yeats’s Sligo and Eliot’s East Coker, the places that they chose as their burial grounds, with the locales’ close proximity to their origins in mind. While examining their biographical details and letters related to Sligo and East Coker, and exploring how these regions are reproduced in Yeats’s poems and Eliot’s “East Coker,” we will find interesting points of comparison between the two poets. Yeats’s experience in Sligo County provides explicit settings and materials such as Sligo place names and mythic figures, and in his poems about Sligo, the literal and the mythical are mingled. In “East Coker,” however, Eliot explores more symbolic and metaphysical meanings evoked by the small village of East Coker, even with its casual or distinct associations with him and his ancestors. In addition, this study concludes with how the present ambience of Sligo and East Coker may function for the 21st century readers of Yeats and Eliot.
