ABSTRACT

This is a study on the Korean Sino-poetry which characterizes taoist-immortal and deduce its lineage systematically. It aims at defining the intrinsic qualities of these poetry and clarifying the invaluable position the literary works holds in the history of Sino-Korean literature by examining and analysing these poetic works and transcendentalism which reflected on them. These works implies the desire for the immortal world which exists over the spiritual point of the real world and the creative-imaginative solution about contradictions which can be found in the real world. The taoistic world which described in these literary works is enchanting and there is the most ideal, fantastic and liberal place. No small number of poets in Korean classics uses a fantasy for trying to escape to the world where is no real world's alienation's frustration and psychological/emotional conflicts. This paper concludes that the characteristic of taoist-immortal contributes to make Korean Sino-poetry to the product of a fertile imagination, enrich the contents and inspirational ideas.
