ABSTRACT

The purpose of this thesis is to reveal the discourse structure of predictions in Kimunchongwha. It has not been known the author of Kimunchongwha. Instead of tracking historical origins, we will consider the discourse structure of Kimunchongwha, to investigate identity of narrative literature. In Kimunchongwha, most of tales is classified in predicting narratives. Predicting narratives mean that subject predict certain condition so that this prediction will be proved to the truth. These are normally objected to demonstrate the ability of predicting subject. However, the characters of discourse structure in Kimunchongwha are relatively marked. Most of all, the predictions are related to discursive readers: how they decode the message using their context. Because these predictions tend to not give reasonable clues for subjects, neither for discursive readers. Therefore, discursive readers decode and participate more actively with their context, acknowledge, predictions in Kimun- chongwha.
