김수영 시에 나타난 자연인식과 미학적 변주

Abstract

This article is trying to prove the relationship between various aesthetic strategies about Nature and political inclination about inconsistent reality of the age through poems of Kim Su-young. Kim Su-young, who is one of the representative poets in 1960s, has been regarded as a modernist or a participant poet and such an image made Nature in his poems be neglected for a long time. Some discussion about his famous works have limitation because they saw the Nature as poetic deliverance above the history or transcendent world. However, Kim tried to investigate the alternatives to overcome the limitation of Capitalism by Nature, not just to escape from absurd reality to the place of Nature. It is important for Kim to intensify the negativity of Capitalism in the Capitalist System and overcome it. Around the April Revolution, Kim penetrated the phenomenon that the government power of the age was producing effective power in the area of daily life and he realized he could not get out of Capitalist System easily, which was spread in his life. The 'Wife' in his poems is especially means of accelerating Capitalism. That's why the hatred of wife is seen in his poems and kim chose Nature as an alternative. Nature in his poem has following three categories. First of all, Nature makes it possible to admit sexual desire out of artificial relationship. Second, Nature is a system that maintain order according to the cycle of birth and death through a nature object like a flower. Finally, Nature is motion that cannot be followed by rational thought through tiny movement. Kim grasped "Gelassenheit" from the movement of petals, which can be against Capitalism. He got out of dichotomous way of thinking through the attitude of "Gelassenheit" and extended his domain of thought.
