한국전쟁과 가사문학

Abstract

This article researched the texts of Gasa which describe the experience of the writer in the period of Korean War. To obtain the texts of Gasa which describe the experience of the writer in the period of Korean War, I have extensively investigated the collections of manuscrips and printing books. As a result, seven pieces of Gasa were corrected until now. These are <hoesimsa>, <Wonhanga>, <Gowhyang-dduhnan-hoesimgok>, <Peeransa>, <narayi-beeguk>, <Chuwolgam>, <Setebigam>. Until now the academia did not pay attention to these texts of Gasa except <Chuwolgam>. First of all, I presented the texts of Gasa which describe the experience of the writer in the period of Korean War. And through the analysis on the contents of work I proved the writer, writing age, the fact that each work was related to The Korean War, and whether the writer is a woman or a man. Next, I analyzed the position of each writer facing the Korean War. Gasa which describe the antipathy to the war itself are <hoesimsa>, <narayi-beeguk>, <Peeransa>. Gasa which describe in the position of Southern soldiers are <Wonhanga>, <Gowhyang-dduhnan-hoesimgok>. Gasa which describe the ideological conflict of one woman are <Chuwolgam>, <Setebigam>. Finally, I probed the literary significance of these Gasa works. These Gasa works has the significance as a documentary literature which typically reflect the tragedy of war and the life of our ordinary people in the period of Korean War. And these Gasa works shows us that traditional features of poetry existence was maintained until recently.
