김택영의 안중근 형상화 검토

Abstract

Kim Taek-young showed a deep concern for An Jung-geun, which is appeared in An Jung-geun jeon and other works. His An Jung-geun jeon was written in 1910based on the report of Chinese newspaper at first, and extensively adapted after the report of Park Eun-sik in 1916. I aim to research the change of Kim Taek-young’s recognition appeared by the figuration of An Jung-geun through the aspect of adapting An Jung-geun jeon included in his anthology in this article. The works in Gyeongsulnyeon(1910) and Byeongjinnyeon(1916) are composed by same structure as “About Person－Activity－Trial Process－editor's judgement” but show some differences on selecting detailed motifs of each paragraph. The most characteristic aspects is that the motif related to ‘Catholic’ was unselected in Byeongjinnyeon work. This is the special character of Kim Taek-young’s work compare to the works of Park Eun-sik and Lee Kun-seung. It is a reflection of Kim Taek-young’s recognition as a Confucian intellectuals who regarded the recovery of the Confucian order as a solution for a actual problem. In the works in Byeongjinnyeon, ‘An Jung-geun’ the way an individual chooses to focus on and omitted a motif about ‘Kando’ region in the works in Gyeongsulnyeon(1910). This is attributed to differences of the basic materials. The works in Gyeongsulnyeon is reflect the tone of Chinese newspapers that exposed Japanese ambition to make Manchuria for the base of aggressing China so waking up Chinese. In the other side, the works in Byeongjinnyeon was relied on Park Eun-sik’s An Jung-geun. The people around An Jung-geun was deleted and some motives are added in order to highlight An Jung-geun’s extraordinary heroism. In particular, motives about the conciliatory and persuasive of Japan repeatedly presented. So An Jung-geun was figured as a a patriot, patriotic martyr, and leader of the righteous armies of Chosun and stand out as representative of nation through the motif of overseas Korean’s support in addition. Kim Taek-young’s adaption of An Jung-geun jeon was based on the work of Park Eun-sik and shows connectivities to Lee Kun-seung’s An Jung-geun jeon. The process of Kim Taek-young’s adaption of An Jung-geun jeon shows the change of his recognition. Furthermore, it gives us a clue how Confucian intellectual in China make An Jung-geun embodied by the hero of the nation in addition.
