1930년대 한국 현대시에 나타난 ‘경성’ 제시 방식 연구 - 김기림, 이상, 오장환 시를 중심으로 -

Abstract

In the 1930s, one of the significant feature in Korean modern poetry is presentation of "Kyung-sung" that a city has surfaced about the capitalism. In accordance with the capitalism in the city of Kyung-sung, it has been frequently mentioned by the poems of Kim Ki-rim, Lee Sang and Oh Jang-hwan. This study tries to identify the methods of presentation of the city of Kyung-sung and the interactive relationship between these methods and the contents. Kim Ki-rim presents Kyung-sung through the juxtaposition with the poetic objects, which are fragmentary. The poetic subject, as a observer at a distance of the object, is de-perspective. Therefore, these objects in Kim ki-rim's poetry have their own individuality by this method of presentation and Kyung-sung is presented by these objects. By this process, Kim’s poetic subject exists as a poetic object in the poetic space. Consequently, the poetic subject and the poetic object have an equal relationship. However, Kyung-sung in Lee Sang’s poetry is mediation of the self-consciousness of poetic subject. Lee presents Kyung-sung by the repeated variation of a specific verse. In his poems, the poetic objects are unintentional, whereas the poetic speaker's voice is maximized. At that point, these poetic objects are subordinate to the self-consciousness of poetic subject. The self-consciousness of poetic subject in Lee Sang’s poetry is mediated by his body, and that body is represented the capitalistic attribute in Kyung-sung. This presentation is completely distinguished from the previous poetry's presentation that concentrates on the facts of reality. Besides, the self-consciousness of poetic subject has its hidden interiority, Because it is presented through the momentary manifestation. Accordingly, the body and the properties of Kyung-sung that are mixed with the self-consciousness of poetic subject also have their hidden interiority. Oh Jang-hwan demonstrates an attribute of Kyung-sung as in determined way in his poems. In Oh's poetry, Kyung-sung is presented by the capitalistic attribute that is identified with the subjectivity of poetic subject. His poetry reifies the Kyung-sung’s negative elements through the dichotomous statement structure. In addition, Oh Jang-hwan’s poems concentrate on these negative elements. This statement structure can more effectively demonstrate that these negative elements of Kyung-sung correspond with the reality, unlike previous KAPF’s statement structure.
