이효석 일본어 단편소설 「土用竹」 연구

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to recast the author's inside during the end of Japanese Colonial by introducing Lee, Hyo-seok's unknown novel 土用竹 written in Japanese. In existing research, Lee, Hyo-seok's ‘Japanese writing’ was in gray zone regarding the problem of cooperation toward Japan. Therefore, it is difficult to define that he is in the side of cooperation or resistance. However 土用竹 which was published on 􋺷詩原􋺸 in August of the year 1940 brings the necessity of reconsideration of evaluation on Lee, Hyo-seok who was considered as a 'de-ideological estheticist’ so far. This novel shows the situation of intellectuals in the Japanese colonial period running into the rise of fascism by handling the Suyangdonguhoe affair which was happened in 1937. The narrator in the novel, ‘Ju, Min-ju’ makes an effort to rescue his father ‘Ju, Seok’ when he was put in a detention center because the Suyangdonguhoe affair. Lee, Hyo-seok shows a complexion of ideology censorship done to intellectuals of Chosun and their response by setting the character ‘Ju-seok’ modeled after Ahn, Chang-ho. This novel reveal fabrication of discourse on 'Nae-sun-il-che’ by showing the existence of order of rank under the word ‘People’ of Japan through a complexion of the relationship between ‘Dakano’ and ‘Kim Yoo-sin’ who went to Keijo Imperial University with ‘Ju, Min-ju’. Lee, Hyo-seok used universal culture code and old story to express the will of intellectuals of Chosun who want to keep their prlnciple under the rising of fascism toward Japanese literary circle and readers.
