김영랑 시와 남도방언

Abstract

We studied general features of southern dialect of Korea and compared poetry of Kim, Young-Rang with them. And we found Kim, Young-Rang’s poetry word wassimilar to a central word, a refined word from an archaic word or a new word than a southern dialect of Korea. Because a dialect of Gangjin has a strong feature of Southern dialect with Wando, Haenam and Jindo. But his poetry word has some of features southern dialect. Having a difficulty to express some emotions with a central word, he used a southern dialect and Gangjin dialect for better expression. We assumed some remains of Gangjin dialect lingered unconsciously. But We can find more refined word of an archaic word than Gangjin dialect from Kim, Young-Rang’s poetry word. The poet made a new word changing a word formation of language. Such new words had a feature of archaic word. It was difficult to create a new word and was not prevalent to be used. But it was noticeable to open a way of poetic language.
