한중 프롤레타리아희곡에 나타난 여성 형상 비교 연구: 김영팔(金永八)과 텐한[田漢]을 중심으로

Abstract

This paper aims to examine the similarities and differences between the two countries’ proletarian plays by analyzing the female representation patterns in the plays of Korean playwright Kim Yeong-pal and Chinese playwright Tianhan. Kim Yeong-pal and Tianhan are representative playwrights who have released important proletarian plays in Korea and China. Although Kim Yeong-pal and Tianhan differ in language and expression, they showed similarities in the practice and inflow of theories, including the expression of creative intentions and ideologies representing the proletarian class. As he experienced the 3･1 Movement and the 5･4 Movement, respectively, he tried to achieve his role as a writer in the national project of national independence and liberation through plays. In the historical trend, he paid attention to the character of a woman who had been alienated from ancient times and showed politics that projected the aspirations of the people. However, it can be said that the social system of a complete colony and an anti-colonialism eventually had a profound influence on the creation of the two writers. Based on different social backgrounds and political environments, Kim Yeong-pal and Tianhan revealed differences in internalized women’s consciousness, class consciousness, and subject expression through the creation of plays. This difference eventually symbolizes the difference in the artist’s creative consciousness and further implies a change in the flow of modern plays between the two countries.
