황진이 시조에서 독백의 문제

Abstract

Hwang Jini’s Sijo’s are lyrics and most of them are formed in monologue. This study pays attention to the poetic narrator in her Sijo’s beyond the view of her particular status as a Gisaeng. Hwang Jini realizes through glaring at herself that her being lies in an ironic position. Under this definition of herself as an ironic being, she does not actively show herself to others but does create poems in the tone of monologue that draws her inside, and melt ironic temporality in her soliloquial tone. It is characteristic in Hwang’s Sijo’s to recognize the world in a system of opposition. This recognition means to relatively grasp the world in the position of the poetic narrator with focus on the narrator. This reveals the poetic narrator’s sense of alienation from the world, and this sense of alienation also reduces to the soliloquial tone. After all, the poetic narrator’s soliloquial tone in Hwang Jini’s poetry can be explained as her recognition of the irony of her being, and expression of her sense of alienation. She expresses the narrator’ssense of alienation from the world in monologue. This is due to the discord between the narrator and the world. Hwang Jini is the poet of monologue as she contains her ironic status and sense of alienation in the poetic narrator’s monologue.
