해방기 대구 ․ 경북 지역 문학매체와 학생시단의 위상

Abstract

Daegu and North Kyungsang Province were very meaningful space related with the Liberation and the Korean War. Korean War elevated the literature of Daegu and North Kyungsang Province to the core of Korean literature. Here, I found the power source of this was to be put on the poetic tradition of the Colonial period and Liberation period. Therefore I intended to take a more careful look into the process of literary circles in Daegu and North Kyungsang Province during the Liberation period. Until now the literature in Daegu and North Kyungsang Province during this period has hardly been included in the discussion of the history of literature. I'd say the reason was related with the reality which had lack of interest in local literature and negligence in digging out materials. I aimed to go over the various kinds of literary media published in Daegu and North Kyungsang Province during this period. ‘Jooksoon Poets' Clubs' or ‘Joseun Circle for Children' conjured up publishing media like ‘Jooksoon (a bamboo sprout)' or ‘Adong(children)'. These media led the poems targeted at adults and children in Daegu and North Kyungsang Province along with 'Saessak(sprout)' created by Choi Hae-tae. These publications played a role to encourage the vigorous literary efforts right after the Liberation when starting one's literary career was not established. Particularly, this paper paid significant attention to the role of groups of student poets' in the process of forming groups of poets in Daegu and North Kyungsang Province. The major media of groups of student poets' were ‘Saebyuk(dawn)' which had never been mentioned in the history of literature, 'Yetuae Dasioni(coming back to the ancient place)' and ‘Haksaeng Siwon(the garden of students poetry).' It was Yi Won -hee, a student at Kyungbook middle school, who played a bridge to connect these three media. Through him these media could form close association with each other. ‘Saebyuk(Dawn),' a collection of works by the literary circle in Kyungbook middle school, was edited to work as a school magazine and also to show its literature-centered taste unlike other school magazines. ‘Yetuae Dasioni(coming back to the ancient place)' and ‘Haksaeng Siwon(the garden of students poetry),' open publications of the outcomes of groups of student poets', contained many poems whose subject matter was the reality of the liberation period. This may have been related with the influence of the guidance teachers in this area who settled down as symbolic authority.
