薛濤 詩에 대한 서술과 비평 연구

Abstract

Xue tao was rarely dealt with in the history of mainstream literature, even though she was the female poet who left the greatest number of poetries in Tang dynasty. In prior to modern times, the most of the criticisms of her poetry were focused on the biography such as her life and related anecdotes. At the end of the Ming dynasty, as social interest on women’s poets and poetry increased, Xue tao’s poetry drew finally the attention again. At the time, some literary people thought themselves historiographers who discover and record female writers and they gave the utilitarian meaning to these behaviors. For this reason, Xue tao’s poetry was chosen for the object of appreciation and evaluation as a literature work with independent value, and the characteristic of female writer was also evaluated positively. The remarkable thing was that appeared the view of criticism and language of Wucisheng with the meaning of ‘there is not being feminine nuance’ on Xue tao’s poet in this period. It was used by critics later in a similar pattern, and, in recent times, it has been changed to “masculinization tendency” or “male imitation.” This ‘Wucisheng’ is a positive evaluation of Xue tao’s poetry through the negation of ‘Cí shēng (Jasung_female voice)’ and it’s based on the premise of the negative side of ‘Cí shēng’. ‘Wucisheng’ is, as a critical remark consistent with ‘Wuzhifenqi’, targeted women in the perception of literary men or revealed their perception of poetry created by women writers. In Xue tao’s poetry, it is hardly found the parting sorrow or deep regret like in another poems that appeared women as a depiction objective or narrator in terms of poetic material or theme. Even when describing the parting sorrow, she maintained an aesthetic distance and sometimes drawing it as the loss of soul mates. In poetry depicting everyday lyrics and the scenery of the season, Xue tao expressed honest feelings and awareness of reality in easy language without using of any fancy polish or authentic precedent. This is the most important personality of the female writer, Xue tao’s thought and language expression that can not be included in ‘Wucisheng’.
