중국 고전 詩詞와 현대 음악과의 상관성 연구

Abstract

This study is about the existing state of the conversion of music from Classic Chinese poetry and Ci poetry to modern songs. The correlation between Chinese literature and music is studied using the method of comparative literature on this paper. Beginning from Shi jing(詩經) and Chu ci(楚辭), the tradition of Chinese poetry has achieved the most dominant position in Chinese culture through the present day and is having a great effect on Chinese socioculture today. In this respect, the actual condition of the conversion of music from Classic Chinese poetry and Ci poetry to modern songs has been made up pretty high. Specially these days we can see Chinese popular singers are creating new modern popular music writing the lyrics with Song Ci poetry. Many works of Classic Chinese poetry and Ci poetry were created into modern lyrical songs, chorus, or revolutionary songs about 1940s, since 1920s. There are two cases on this happening, one is the music to be created on the base of Classic Chinese poetry and the other is the music to be created on the base of Chinese Tang Song Ci(唐宋詞). In the case of the former, there are ‘Jian Jia(蒹葭)’, ‘Lu ming(鹿鳴)’ and etc. in Shi jing and the symphonic poem, ‘the Flow of the Guluo river(汨罗沉流)’ which is made in memory of the decease of Qu Yuan(屈原). Also there are many cases of the conversion of music with the works of Li bai(李白) who wrote the best poetry among poets of his time. In the case of the latter, the representative works had the conversion of music such as the ones of Su Shi(蘇軾), Yue Fei(岳飛), Li Qing Zhao(李淸照), Jiang Kui(姜虁), and etc. mostly. This existing state of the conversion of music from Classic Chinese poetry and Ci poetry to modern songs is happening because the musical character of poetry and Ci poetry have the affinity that makes it easy to be the conversion of music and because they have the outstanding familiarity with the audience when the poetry and Ci poetry in familiar to the readers become the conversion of music. Through the mutual correlation between this literature and music, we can understand literature refreshingly and comprehend the phenomenon of diffusion in the popular culture of literature.
