Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to study the various critical recognition and practice in literary criticism of Sang-byung Chun and to turn out the achievement and limitation in view of literature history with attention to Sang-byung Chun as the professional critic. Sang-byung Chun's criticism started with the existent recognition and resistance of established generation which postwar generation had together and pointed toward modern literature's 'pure essence'. He showed self-consciousness of criticism and special critical point of view which emphasized universal validity and intelligence of criticism. These critical recognition as a poet-critic was practiced in consideration of korea literature's 'intelligence'·'lyricism' and the 'modern' 'east' writer. Though his critical activity was short period and sometimes showed limitations of abstract logic, Many achievements from His literary criticism in the 1950s have influence on those days criticism and should not be overlooked with the importance of literary history.
