중화주의적 인식 경계, 로컬리티와 타자 − 도통론적 대상 인식에 대한 실학적 전환을 중심으로 −

Abstract

This thesis is to approach the matter of the recognized marginal areas under China-centrism. The recognized marginal area means to the spaces that can be erroneously known, in which individuation and difference of the existence of people, locals and things ect. may be neglected in spite of having naturally their own intrinsic identity. And there individualities can be appeared shabby or valueless in the eye of the viewer. Gazing at these facts we are going to trace the East-Asiatic origin of the prevalent uniform identity, the division with other groups, the neglection of local value, singularities and minorities, and try to retrospect it. By the way the writer keeps his own opinion that the marginal area of recognition would originate in the consciousness of the identity, revealed in the pillar civilization such as Chinese civilization, one of the main streams of the world civilizations. The seek of the identity revealed in the world has resulted in giving the ideas for centrism which have produced the marginal areas of recognition. In the pursuit of the ordinary one the others, the opposite sides to their own identities, being able not to be recognized regardless of the East and the West, their varieties and differences not only have been regarded as "the strange" but also used to be the useless in the case of confronting the identical mechanism, for example the idea, the reason, the way, and the principle. The others over the side of the identity have been "babes in the woods", in spite of having their own standards of the existence. Ultimately the writer reflects on the matter about 'me and the other' and 'the civilized and the marginal' as the important issue in the cultural centralism, and requires to pay attention to the recognition of local values or objects such as commoners, localities and things(creatures) which naturally have their values, just as Jang Yus or Hong Dae-yong gazed at the values of localities against Tao-identity of China-centrism.
