Abstract

This paper is a study to discuss the significance of poetry and the activities of the northern modernist magazines La Dislocation and Maek in the field of poetry literature in the late 1930s, and furthermore to reconsider the achievements of modernism in the poetry history of North and South Korea. Modernism in Korea has been intensively studied in the early and mid 1930s centered on Gyeong-seong. However, as the mid-1930s passed, modernism expanded regionally and in a wide variety of ways, and this aspect can be found in magazines La Dislocation(1937) and Maek(1938). In the history of literature La Dislocation has been mainly focused on psychological tendency of novels. In this study, it was revealed that the poems in La Dislocation have psychological tendencies such as anxiety and depression in terms of literary consciousness. And on the other hand, it was examined that there is a characteristic of modernism that creates the intellectual, abstract, and surreal world of poetry pursued by Lee Sang (李箱) and Three Four Literature. In particular, this study expanded the scope of modernism by introducing and evaluating for the first time the modernist Yang Woon-han. Maek was evaluated as a surrealist Magazine in the history of literature, it can be seen that they gradually moved toward the modernist art movement after their 3rd album. In particular, this study dealt with the recently discovered works of the 5th volume of Maek for the first time, and it was possible to more clearly identify the character and literary status of Maek as a modernist magazine oriented toward artistic movement and politics. Also, in terms of literary history, the results of La Dislocation and Maek were considered as an active response to the new generation theory of Im hwa, Kim Kwang-gyun, and Kim Ki-rim, who were seeking a new subject in poetry literature in the late 1930s. In other words, it can be evaluated that the active response to the changes in the literary field of the time was most actively and practically made by the people of the northern region of the Korean Peninsula, centering on modernism. In conclusion, through this study, it was possible to identify the achievements and historicity of modernism centered on the northern part of the Korean Peninsula in the late 1930s, and furthermore, it was possible to reconsider the status and significance of literature in the poetry history of North and South Korea.
