무궁극적인 것과 제정일치- 최인훈 연작 「총독의 소리」에 관한 비교연구

Abstract

This article is about Choi In-hun’s viceroy(governor), that is, the governor who hid underground on the Korean Peninsula, defining himself as a ‘Theocracist’ rooted in the founding myth of Japan(the mythical origin of the emperor’s family). Specifically, the theodicy of the viceroy, who was secretly planning the second advent of the ‘empire=divine kingdom’ right after the defeat in the war, was compared with the political and religious theories of contemporary Japan. Similar to the viceroy, Watsuji Tetsuro’s “Theocracy” and Maruyama Masao’s “Structure of Political Affairs”, which analyzed the state of political use of the founding myth of Japan, are the subjects of such comparison. First, it is analyzed that the viceroy and Watsuji as Theocracist are based on the equation of ‘ancestral rites(祭祀/Matsurigoto)=political affairs(政事/Matsurigoto)’. And while examining Maruyama’s ‘an offering to a superior(獻上事/Matsurigoto)=political affairs(政事/Matsurigoto)’ equation, which critically intervenes in it, is considered. ‘the infinite’ of the basis for the rule extracted in this way is a concept shared by the viceroy, Watsuji, and Maruyama, but also a place where the direction of political awareness diverges. Re-establish the relationship of the three goals surrounding the concept. In that extension, the following three items were analyzed. i) The level of legitimacy that guarantees the level of political decision is composed of a system of ‘infinite summons’ to unspecified superiors; ii) that in such a system, grounds for immunity at the level of political decisions are being established; iii) The fact that such circumstances form the base flow of political consciousness and manifest as repetitive patterns and effects of police/domestic administrative order.
