辭說時調와 雜歌에 표현된 微物의 의미와 시적 기능

Abstract

In this paper, I have searched for works in which poetry ‘little things’(微物) can be found in Saseolsijo(辭說時調) and Japga(雜歌), and examined the meaning and poetic function of them in each work. So far, there have been many discussions on the ‘little things’(微物) expressed in the works of Sino-Korean literature. In this paper, it has been confirmed that various ‘little things’(微物) are also utilized in Saseolsijo(辭說時調) and Japga(雜歌) which are the subdivisions of Korean classical poetry. And the ‘little things’(微物) used in Saseolsijo(辭說時調) and Japga(雜歌) can be classified according to their meaning and poetic function as 1) materials that cause laughter, 2) reflection of the reality of life, and 3) medium of affection. Utilizing various ‘little things’(微物) in Saseolsijo(辭說時調) and Japga(雜歌) can be understood to be made in the same context as the changes in thought and art in the late Joseon period. The emergence of the practical science philosophy(實學思想), the change of thinking about the self and the world, and the idea that the small beings have their own values ​​and meanings became an ideological background in which ‘little things’(微物) are utilized in the creation of Korean classical poetry. And the composing tendency to actively accept the ‘little things’(微物) in the works can be understood as an indicator that Saseolsijo(辭說時調) and Japga(雜歌) were growing as modern literary arts.
