은유 학습 구성을 위한 범위 설정 -보편적 이해 도구로서의 은유 본질과 기능에 주목하여-

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to propose a range of possible scope for restructuring metaphor learning by re-recognizing metaphor essence and function from the perspective of universal understanding tools. As metaphor is regarded as a learning element of literature, metaphor learning is realized in terms of understanding and using rhetorical techniques. However, this method considerably limits the various possibilities of the metaphor. Therefore, this study intends to re-recognize the essence and function of metaphors from the perspective of metaphors as a universal understanding tool, and categorize the possible learning possibilities that can be constructed accordingly, and propose them as a scope of metaphor learning composition. To achieve this goal, this study was conducted as follows. First, the validity of the viewpoint that metaphor is a universal understanding tool, and the problems of metaphor recognition and learning composition in Korean language education were examined. Next, based on the feasibility study of the concept of metaphor as a universal understanding tool, we looked at how metaphoric functions can be re-recognized. Lastly, the research discussions were comprehensively and applied to categorize and suggest the possible scope of metaphorical learning in terms of 'learning objectives', 'materials', ‘contents’, and ‘approach’.
