「동심초」 번역과 김소월 시 창작방법 비교 연구

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to prove that the translator of Dongsimcho is Kim So-wol, not Kim Ok. Although Kim So-wol was known as a poet, he did, in reality, translate many literary works based on his excellent foreign language skills, including many Chinese poems. There are two reasons to prove that Kim O-eok did not translate Dongsimcho. First of all, the process of translating by Kim's is unnatural. Translation levels in rows 1 and 2 are significantly different from those in lines 3 and 4, and works modified 10 years later are significantly lower in levels. The other is that in order to translate Dongsimcho, it need to know about Dongsimgeol, which Kim did not know. The following is why Dongsimcho was translated by Kim So-wol. First, Kim So-wol knew about Dongsimgeol very well. We can see this by the poem Sososo-grave which he translated. Second, Dongsimcho written by the natural colloquial statements of a poetic narrator, which is characteristic of Kim So-wol's method of creation. Third, the translation method for line 3 of Dongsimcho and 1, 2 lines of Sososo-grave is similar. Fourth, the poetic narrator of Pultaki and the listener in Kejeoul are similar to the poetic narrator of Dongsimcho on the characteristic and the situation. This study, which reveals Dongsimcho's actual translator, is significant in that it signals a new start in research of Kim So-wol.
