재일 디아스포라 작가들의 불안과 극복의 모색 ─김사량, 김학영, 이양지 소설의 언어 의식을 중심으로─

Abstract

A sense of identity was deep-rooted in the Korean diaspora writers in Japan while they created literary works written in Japanese in Japan. This thesis analyses masterpieces of Kim Sa Ryang(金史良), Kim Hak Young(金鶴泳), and Lee Yang Ji(李良枝) underlying that the identity issue provoked as being laid on between Japan and Korea is surfaced to their language consciousness. As the anxiety of identity deepened, their language consciousness is embodied in a negative direction. Language is used as means of disguise themselves, being silence on account of communication failures, and evasion of obsession to be assimilated into the community. The channel, however, is also founded in the language consciousness to reverse the anxiety of identity. In Kim Sa Ryang's case, he disrupted the order of rank among Korean people through bilingualism in Korean and Japanese and acting as a mediator. For Kim Hak Young, he overcame the impossibility of communication by saying continuously with a stammering, instead of keeping silence. Lastly, Lee Yang Ji leapt over the rift between Korean and Japanese by written language. It is to realize communication and solidarity between two conflictive identities.
