Abstract

This study analyzes the prose of Sapkyo霅橋 An suk-kyong安錫儆 on which his dream and inner world view are intensely reflected. It also establishes the influence on his life through his literature. Kimongsi記夢詩 and Mongki夢記 by An suk-kyong is intensively created at his age between 32 to 35, which was from 1749 to 1752. This period becomes a great watershed which draws first half of his life as a writer. Through the analysis of Kimongryu記夢類, we could learn that he undergoes self-consciousness and meetings with others, works around inner conflict and seeks the main significance of existence all through his dreams. Also, we are able to experience the encounter and consciousness in his dreams directly. We recognize surmounting of his inner conflicts and understand the meaning of his being existed all through his dreams. The creation of Kimongryu takes a great role of making a direction of the latter half of An suk-kyong’s life as a writer. He realizes his voice would not be heard at the royal court. After he decides he will be sitting on his early retirement, he writes a book about overall national issues embodying his whole heart and soul. His dream has remarkable influence over his literary work during the second half of his life as a writer. Kimongryu by An suk-kyong represents multilayered aspects of his inner world, and clarifies roles of his dreams into his literacy.
