윤동주 시의 공간과 장소

Abstract

This study try to analize the poetry of Yoon dong-joo. In particular, this study focuses the space and place in his poem as a analysis method. The space that appears in the poem is divided into space and place again. The space get aspect of abstract, the place based on real experience. It means that the place is organized based on personal experience. The place appears in poetry to describe unique and specific experiences. Although Yoon’s poems have many monologues, the space appears in his poems. For the research, three representative spaces are selected. It is the sky and the street and the room. Yoon started to write a poem when he was eighteen years old. He have educated as a christian and grown up in the colonial reality. As a result of that, he reflected his beliefs in poetry. Early poems get some ideological aspect, so space and place do not appear well. The sky appears in various symbols in early poems. But after that, it becomes representation space. The sky is a symbol of purity. It is a something in contrast to the earth. It is an opportunity to feel ashamed and to confirm a swear. But the sky is closer to representational space than place. But, the street and room change from symbols to representational space and to place later. the street and room frequently appear, especially in poetry written in Japan. The place in a poem shows the shape of a special experience. I think that is a result of the recognition about reality.
