청소년시의 가능성 연구 ‒창작 미학을 중심으로

Abstract

This article examines the aesthetic characteristics of youth poetry that is actively being created from 2010. This is a preliminary assessment of whether or not the youth poetry, which appears as a literary phenomenon, can form a new literary discourse. Therefore, if we can produce the aesthetic sense of youth in the aspect of creative aesthetics, it is not only a mere phenomenon but also a possibility to communicate with important literary discourse in the 21st century. The reason why youth poetry phenomenon is important is that teenagers are beginning to be recognized as the subject of literary discourse. This is a phenomenon that occurs when adolescence is recognized as an independent world rather than as a preliminary stage for adulthood. Behind that, there is a new attempt to escape the universal perception that adolescence is immature, and there is a premise that the adolescent world is not a sub-world of the established world but an independent world. Therefore, youth poetry can be accepted as literary discourse when it has its own aesthetic sense. Before examining the aesthetic characteristics of youth poetry, this article suggests that the goal should be to discover the physical and mental 'anxiety' in adolescence and to share it socially beyond individual dimensions. This is a poetic exposition of anxiety, an important feature of adolescence. Through this process, youth poetry will be able to communicate with the inner circle of the youth and empathize with the youth world. In pursuit of these goals, youth poetry has shown that romantic longing is a central theme and that the contradictions of the youth world are being resolved in the 'other world'. The 'other world' mentioned here is a world that exists beyond the ready-made (adult) world that affects the youth world and exists in the imagination that young people are romantically admired. In order to express such a world, youth poetry adopts negative expression as a methodology. Negative in teenagers encompasses both the adolescent and adult worlds. Youth poetry admires the 'other world' through the denial of the world and creates its identity in the context of 'other world'. Of course, it is unreasonable to determine 'the phenomenon of youth poetry' as 'discourse of youth poetry'. Therefore, when the youth phenomenon of the present time is examined carefully and the essence of the youth poetry and the point where the youth poetry is aimed at can be found out from behind, the youth poetry can be a 'genre' have.
