형식 실험을 통한 현실의 재현과 극복 -김소진 소설을 중심으로

Abstract

The purposes of this study were to investigate "mutual textbook' in the novels of Kim So-jin and expand the scope of researches on his novels. In his novels, mutual textbook made attempts at form experiments for contemporariness of Representing Reality and character projection and internal psychology expression. In his novels, Kim gets a parody out of classical tales and presents the satirical criticism of the situations of the times. He modifies "Cheoyongga" in Cheoyongdanjang, in which acculturation of classic and character projection can be found, and "Shimcheongga" in Goatteon Paengdeokeomeom in various ways according to his imagination and consciousness, projecting character personalities. The findings indicate that he used a unique writing strategy of mimicking as creation instead of mimicking through acculturation of classic. Also depicts the internal conflicts of characters psychology by inserting various texts such as poems, novels, newspaper articles, and plays. Texts are inserted in his works like illustrations such as Hwangtokgil, a poem by Kim Ji-ha, in Man No. 1 on the Roof, The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Napoleon by Karl Marx in The Anniversary of the Revolution, Namshinui- juyudongbaksibongbang, a poem by Baek Seok, and The Buck- thorn, a poem by Ahn Chan-su, in Looking for the Buckthorn, and Have You Got the Man, a poem by Ham Seok-heon, in The Pharmacist of Shingpunggeunbaekeori. Those texts work to highlight internal conflicts about the situation of inevitable conversion and betrayal by characters due to the capitalist logic after the 1980s and remind them of passion for reform in the old days and defeat consciousness. In Kim's novels, mutual textbook is a form experiment to clearly show the reality of the subjects that cannot help having worries in the absurd reality. It presents the alienation, sense of severance, lethargy, and confusion of modern people with the destruction of literary forms and is his writing strategy for the old order and ruling format.
