時調에 등장하는 우리나라 實存 人物 硏究

Abstract

This paper is aimed to examine how Korean characters of Sijo works are treated. In 5000 extant Sijo works, Korean characters appear in 103 works. 103 persons appear in the 103 works. In the case of 27 persons of them, we can grasp their achievements but can't identify who they are. In the case of 23 persons of them, we can identify only their statuses. In the 103 works, 83 authors have been known and the other 20 authors have not been known. In the case of works that we can recognize their authors, the works in which Korean characters appear emerged in the late 16th century. It can be under- stood as one trend of Sijo in the late Joseon period. In the case of characters' appearances who are previous generations compared with their authors, we should understand the Sijo works around the characters. The works unfold around the characters' achievements or images and thus they are some hints for understanding them. In the case of characters' appearances who are the same generations with their authors, we should understand the Sijo works around the authors' lives and hearts. In the works, the characters' achieve- ments or images are not important. The characters just play an ancillary role in order to show the authors' lives and hearts. In the case of anonymous authors' works, there are both works that should be understood around their characters and works that their characters play an ancillary role.
