김억(金億)의 여성 한시 번역과 번안시조(飜案時調) 창작의 의의

Abstract

Kim Eok, who translated western poem into Korean, is one of influential writers in literaturehistory. He is also remembered as one who translated hanshi the most and the firstone who translated hanshi written by women writers into Korean. He publishedTranslated collection of hanshi Mangwucho in 1934 and around one third of the collectionof translated poem is written by women writers. This translation was the first time totranslate hanshi written by women writers. Later Kim Eok published 6 of Translatedhanshi. Total of 296 Korean hanshi had been translated into Korean and 285 among themwere poem written by women writers, 368 Chinese hanshi had been translated intoKorean and 190 among them are women’s works. No one ever translated such a largevolume of hanshi into Korean by now. We may account for two reasons why he translatedso many women’s works. Firstly, he is the one who holds modern consciousnessthat women can create poem. Secondly, he has a tendency to consider pure lyric poemare true one and enjoy reading such poem. Writing poem by women writers was notcommon and natural in premodern Korean society, but the poetical works of womenwriters emerged while the time passes toward modern society. Kim Eok publish women’spoetical works neither as like a professional historian of literature do nor a who has systematicand broad understanding them. He enjoyed reading hanshi of women writers andcasually began learning of creating poetry by translating them. The reason why he hasbeen captivated by women’s works which contains affection of resentment and loneliness,tormenting yearnings, and heartbreaking grief, is attributed to confinement of hispoint of view toward pure lyric poem. Kim Eok regarded translation works as a works of creation and he combined recreatinghanshi into adapted Shijo as well as translating them into Korean in the third collection oftranslated hanshi Gottabal. He gave, those who could not enjoy reading hanshi because of language barrier, opportunity to appreciate them by refining hanshi and recreating them into adapted Shijo and he contributed to poetryliness of translation poem.
