하기와라 사쿠타로 시에 나타난 그로테스크 - 한일 시문학 비교를 중심으로 -

Abstract

The present article shows that the sense of grotesqueness is felt in the poetic subjects portrayed in Tsuki-ni Hoeru and Aoneko, the representative poem books by Sakutaro Hagiwara. In these Sakutaro’s works, the notion of grotesque stems from a daily and abnormal sense of “ugly.” We clarify the notion by comparing these works by Sakutaro with some comparable Korean works. Firstly, we discuss the realism of grotesque that arises from its negativity and abnormality. The analysis focusses on the authenticity of grotesqueness represented in Tenjo Ishi, which surpasses the limitation of grotesqueness and reflects negativity as it is, and it is compared with Hyeong- do Gi’s Planting Festival. Secondly, we analyse Sakutaro’s “compassion,” which reveals his unhidden desire, in order to see how the humour that stands out in grotesqueness is expressed. It is compared with Jeong-ju Seo’s Midday in terms of the grotesque background that departs from “eros” as a poetic object and represents the acme of pleasure. Further, we confirm that in The Death of An Alcoholic, the image of body is portrayed as if it were strangely scrapped, and the sense of hatred and caricaturisation co-exist as a device for accelerating the sense of tension. Finally, we analyse the nobility expressed in the ugliness of grotesqueness, revealing that a waist injury is represented as a commonality among The Reason Why the Hospital Looks Malformed to the People Inside, Dawn, and Chang-hwan O’s Classics.
