「金鰲新話」의 작품 構成 原理와 만남의 變奏

Abstract

Time and Space in “Geumosinhwa” is more than a background. By setting different time and space for those five episodes, it awakens the attention to the space where meetings are made. The awakening of the space is a major difference distinguishing “Geumosinhwa” from similar works. When comparing five works paying attention to the emphasis of meeting space, three formats such as ‘evolution’, ‘crossing’ and ‘return’ are found. ‘Evolution’ means linearity where the characteristics of the space become more conspicuous and meetings have public tendency, while ‘crossing’ is the phenomenon that active and passive protagonists come alternatively during the process that an encounter develops to a meeting. ‘Return’ indicates the common characteristics of two issues such as permanent farewell and seclusion of protagonist are described both in the first and the last work. Kim Si seup, the writer of “Geumosinhwa” seems to use these forms and secure the closeness between works to deal with the dual attitudes of the subject facing the tyranny of the world and show his attention and attachment to the reality in detour.
