일제말기 만주 지역 시조 연구

Abstract

Since the foundation of Manchukuo by the occupation of the Japanese Empire in March, 1932, Korean literary circles in the area of Manchuria began to be formed in a full scale. Among the sijos created in Manchuria at that time, 28 pieces of sijos published in 『Manseon Daily』 from the latter part of 1930s to 1940s and Sim Yeon-su's unpublished works can be identified at present. In this research, the discourse on sijos in the area of Manchuria at the end of the Japanese Empire was analyzed with those two as the text. The understanding of the genre of sijo, desires as writers of the colony, and recognition of the place of Joseon and Manchuria of the Korean poets who created sijos in Manchuria at the last stage of the Japanese Empire were investigated. 『Manseon Daily』 permitted literature in Korean language as the filed to publish Korean literature in Manchuria at the end of the Japanese Empire, however their contents were censored by the colonial authorities. The censorship came to take priority over the quality of a work, and affected publication of the works or winning a prize. No established or would-be authors who intended to work in Manchuria were completely free from the censorship. This study argued that the sijos created in Manchuria at the end of the Japanese Empire had emerged in response to the media discourse, and examined the context and depth.
