한국 시집의 외국어 번역 및 해외 발간 현황

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to understand the current status of Korean poetry collections translated into foreign languages. Based on the list of translated poems of the Korea Literature Translation Institute, the current status of each period, translated word, poet and collection of poems was identified, and a plan to establish the list of translated poems as a credible source was proposed. First, looking at the status by period, it can be seen that the publication of translated poetry has increased very steeply since the 1970s. As a result, it can be assumed that the translation language and country of publication have been widely spread. As a result of examining poetry books, there are 211 poets who have translated poetry books as modern and contemporary poets, and the number of publications was 421 times. Among them, Ko Eun published 53 translated poetry books and has an overwhelming advantage, followed by Yun Dong-ju 22 and Kim So-wol published 21 translated poetry books, indicating that they are relatively well-known overseas poets. In addition, the most introduced poetry collection abroad is Yoon Dong-ju's Sky, Wind, Stars and Poetry, which has been translated into 10 languages and published 20 times in 10 countries. Kim So-wol's Azalea Flower, Han Yong-un's My Lover's Silence, and Ko Eun's Maninbo have been translated and published 11 times each. The list of translated poems of the Korea Literature Translation Institute used in this study is a data that has already been organized for ease of use. In this regard, if the part to be supplemented and the data arrangement are somewhat supplemented and constantly disclosed, it is considered that it will be used more importantly for more active research in this field in the future.
