한국 시(가)의 근대성의 논리

Abstract

Park Chol-Hee's Study on the History of Korean Modern Poetry, Choe Hyun-Sik's The Side of the Myth, Kim Ok-Sung's The Mysticism and Religious aesthetics of Modern Poetry search for the mental or poetic bases of Korean poetry. The bases are the influence of the traditional poetry, nationalism, a religious spirit. Park regards that modern free verse is joining that is liberal of 'Saseolsijo', expressing private emotion. Choe thinks that Nationalism is an important basis that composing Korean poetry and explains how it is expressed. Kim establishes a religious spirit to important subject that explain Korean poetry, and studies that is embodied by certain form. These men start from question for starting point at concept of 'modern poetry' and 'modernity'. It is subject of these study that is what of modernity or when appear the modern poetry. They agree that characteristic of 'modernity' is expressing liberal mind and private affection. But, Park thinks that it is content of poetry. The other side, Choe and Kim expand this to concept that ‘The aesthetic autonomy’. Park criticizes preceding studies that establish departure point at modern poetry as ‘Sinsi’. He enters Sijo's type and development by the example, emphasizes that formation of modern poetry was attained on effect of Western literature and reciprocal action inside of traditional discourse. It is finding link ring between classic literature and current literature. Choe is beginning discussion from the poetry of flowering period that accomplish border of classic literature and current literature. But, he starts to presuppose cutting between those. Park finds a form of free verse in Sijo, Choe agrees by silence which Sijo is degradation genre that break with free verse. Kim supports opinion which establish the 1920 to starting point of modern poetry. This is similar with Choe's situation in that respect of grasping on important element of modernity ‘The aesthetic autonomy’. But, there is difference at point that Kim catches the 1920 by origin of modern literature while Choe takes period that nationalism happens by flowering time and starts discussion about 'modernity'. These studies are doing by ultimate target that establish particular one subject and explain the History of Korean modern poetry. These offer various and deeply sights that explain Korean poetry, and extend horizons of study on Korean modern poetry.
