‘권선징악’에 대하여

Abstract

This study is looking for the meaning of ‘encouraging good and punishing evil’. This is a typical and traditional story structure, specially a story-model human have had for a long time. I will propose to call it ‘encouraging good and punishing evil’ on the case the text has the story of ‘the good must be happy after sufferings, the bad must be punished after obtaining authority’. For example, the traditional novel of Korea and Hollywood action movie have similar story structure, but they are different the method of expression of it, the ideology of righteousness and wickedness, and strategy of composition. Therefore if we can approach to these points, we gain a base of operations to explain the specific property of novel. ‘encouraging good and punishing evil’ is very important on the two points, the first is we gain the base of operations to explain the novel on the structure and mode, and the second, we explain the Korean format to take a inherent method. If we store up the study on ground of this area, we will analysis our literature to take a Korean method.
