이상 시에 나타난 생태적 상상력

Abstract

This study aims to synthesize the 'contradictory' appearance and interpretation surrounding the Yi Snag’s poem, starting with his 'ecological imagination'. As a "poet of negativity and disharmony" and a "poet as a martyr to life" Yi Sang shows the reader two poets today. When paying attention to the former, the reader finds the face of a "genius" who has become "desperate" after experiments of "poetic technology," while when paying attention to the latter, the existential face of a poet struggling to somehow affirm and overcome the world. Yi Sang's poem, which was expressed by ecological imagination, is generally the "poet as a martyr in life," but the poet's unique ecological imagination is the method and result of "poet of negativity and disharmony." This interpretation is a plan to supplement both the two research directions approaching the poet's two faces, that is, the study that defines the poet modernistically and the study that defines the poet Nietzscheically, and to establish a connection point between the two. The ecological imagination that this paper will focus on is the plant imagination represented by the "wood man" motif, and the poetic narrator enables a new realm of creation by allowing the poet and the reader to truly reach despair along with the plant imagination.
