이철범 비평의 세계주의 연구: 『반체제의 논리』(1985)를 중심으로

Abstract

This article proposes to reexamine Lee Chul-bum not as a critic of the post-war generation of the 1950s and 1960s, but as a critic who delved into world dissident literature in the 1970s and 1980s. The three points that this study sought to present are as follows. First, it is not sufficient to understand the concept of ‘existence’ in Lee Chul-bum’s criticism only in the context of the debate on pure literature and literature of engagement. I tried to approach this in a new a way based on his internationalist context. The fact that he evaluated 6.25 and 4.19 and largely took lessons from the former and limitations from the latter was due to how close the two historical events were to his perception of Korean history ‘within world history.’ Next, this study examines how Lee Chul-bum’s interest in Korean history within world history extends to the history of global dissident liberation movements, and seeks to reveal how this is similar to and different from the 1970~80s Third World literature theory. For this purpose, this study took as its main subject of analysis Banchejeui Nolli (The Logic of Dissent) published in 1985. Lastly, this study focused on the fact that Lee Chul-bum looked back on the dissident liberation movements of the 1950~60s from the perspective of the 1980s, and attempted to present important points that can be read with this temporal distance.
