ABSTRACT

The purpose of the current study is to discuss how to enhance readability of Korean long piece novels. Surplus dialogues evoke readers' sympathy emotionally while having the readers get absorbed in the world of text and feel a sense of distance on the other hand. Reproduction of various images of women represents layered desire of women in noble families. Although Korean long piece novel seems that it focuses on creating a lady of refined manners superficially, images of women who want to escape from Confucianism are also reproduced. Internal narration makes a reader feel self-pity by reflecting the reader's emotion on a heroine's feeling. Character description satisfies aesthetic senses of women in noble families. Both a hero and a heroine are described in ideological images, which represents ideal ideology for beauty of women in noble families. Correlations of Korean long piece novels are described with mutual relationships between characters and contents in different two works. Readers can improve readability through analysis reading thanks to mutually related narration.
