AB - This paper is to fundamentally examine the modality of conflict intellectuals experience living in dark years of 1980s by comparing 'alienation' aspect of poetic subject appeared in poems of Gi Hyeong-do and Hai Zi. As precedent researches presented, Gi Hyeong-do and Hai Zi are intellectuals who lived in the dark years of 1980s and their poems are very gloomy, full of death. Poetic subjects in their poems are the one who agonized and anguished in absurd reality. However, two poets showed somewhat different tendency to express this anguish. In this study, we fundamentally look into psychological modality of two poetic subjects based on Lacan's Psychoanalysis theory to explain these characteristics.
'Alienation' used here is a concept derived from Lacan's psychoanalytic term meaning 'vel' in Latin. According to Lacan, it is psychological modality created through the relationship with others in the process of forming subjects by human beings. He explained the process of 'alienation' that is experienced from imaginary system and becomes more prominent as it enters into the symbolic system with an example of self-awareness process of infants. In this paper, we examine the subjects in poems of Gi Hyeong-do and Hai Zi based on his theory. Normally, alienation is used to examine poetic transformation and psychological modality of one person as a process of subject formation. However, we focus on the fact that the characteristics of 'symbolic alienation' and 'imaginary alienation' are appeared to each of agonizing subjects of Gi Hyeong-do and Hai Zi to compare characteristics of poetic subjects of two poets by dividing these processes into two characteristics in this study. As a symbolic 'subject', poetic subject of Gi Hyeong-do is the one who agonized in the oppression of other. The anguish of this subject is caused by oppression of orders in reality and he accurately recognized this. On the other hands, poetic subject of Hai Zi is 'imaginary' one and can' find the source of his own agony and anguish. He showed the lack of awareness of reality to recuse himself from gloomy of reality through continuous imaginary identification with others.
