Abstract

This article examines the meaning of the translation work of Hyangpa Lee Joo-hong(向破 李周洪, 1906～1987) from the perspective of local literature. Hyangpa, along with Yosan Kim Jeong-han(樂山 金廷漢, 1908～1996), is well known as a writer who played a key role in the founding of the Busan literary world. Unlike Yosan, who only dug a single well as a novelist, Hyangpa is not only a writer of children's literature, poetry, novels, plays, screenplays, essays, translations, and comics, but also a theater director, magazine editor, illustrator, calligrapher, and lyricist. He was active in all areas of literature. Around 1947, Hyangpa became a convert who completely broke away from socialist organizations and moved to Busan, where he remained for the rest of his life. In this article, I focused on the fact that during the founding period of the Busan literary world after the Korean War, Hyangpa accepted his destiny as a novelist and renewed his resolve to begin translating Chinese classical literature in earnest. In short, this article focuses on Hyangpa from the perspective of a translator, which is one of the gaps in the history of Hyangpa research. In addition, at the level of local literary history, rather than analyzing local characteristics, I focused on issues that are rarely addressed in local literary history research. In other words, I was interested in how local writers tried to solve the problem of literary universality. The significance of this article, which contributes to the existing research history, can be found in these two points.
