일제 강점기 재일 한국인의 일어시와 근대성

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to grasp the modernity of Korean poets' poems which were written in Japanese in Japan under the rule of Japanese imperialism(1910～1945). Ju, Yo-han(朱耀翰) had written about forty pieces in Japanese within the period of studying abroad(1916. 10～1919. 2) before lots of his Korean poems. His later poems showed the description of delicate sensibility and the symbolic expression. Especially his prose poem, that is, <the dim light>(微光, 1918. 6), which has the inter-textuality with Paul Fort's poem <the ship>, was announced before his Korean prose poems <Nun>(i. e., the snow, 1919. 1), <Bulnori>(i. e., the fire festival, 1919. 2). Jung, Ji-yong(鄭芝溶)'s poems in the 1920's did not express directly the thought or the emotion, but figurated sensitively it by means of the image of objective things. Accepting the imagism, he intended to write modern poems by new writing technics according to the influences of Japanese imagist poets, such as Kitahara Hakyusu(北原白秋). As the result, these poems could extend his poetic world, and made a catalytic action in the development of his Korean poetry. Baek, Cheol(白鐵) became a member of Japanese vanguard poets' group and after was engaged in NAPF with Kim, Yong-jae(金龍濟) in the early of 1930's. Most of his poems in Japanese were works of narrative poetry which described the concrete facts of Korean life in the colonial period. In this point, I can insist that his poems have the poetic reality and the national identity even if they have the leftist inclinations of Marxism and the boundary of Japanese language usage.
