AB - This paper examined the problems of Landscape, Gaze, and its
linguistic representation, through Jeong Jiyong’s later poems, especially the
religious poetry, the travel poetry created during the last stage of Japanese
imperialism.
In the religious poetry, Jeong Jiyong adopted the transcendent gaze of
the God. The God in his poetry is represented as the image of heavenly
body such as sun, moon, Venus, or as the image of flame of the Lamp.
These imagery always has the image of Eye. The poetic subject negating
his own eyes draws the God’s Eye into his soul. Jeong Jiyong’s
self-reflection deepened the internality of Korean modern poetry by
adopting the God’s eye instead of the modern gaze which gives privilege
on human eyes.
In the travel poetry, Jeong Jiyong represented the total image of
Mountains only by way of representing small natural objects and
combining its imagery. Especially, he identified his haggard soul with the
natural objects which he had met by chance on his way of climbing
mountains. On the other hand, he adopted the gaze of butterfly’s compound

eyes to criticize the violence of modern subject’s gaze. Through the
butterfly’s compound eyes, Jeong Jiyong could showed the transcendent
imagination crossing the border between life and death, the border between
existing and non-existing. In addition, Jeong Jiyong protected the purity of
his soul and the dignity of modern poetry by declaring the symbolic death
of himself. The fantasy of death which Jeong Jiyong saw through the
butterfly was the representation of poet’s destiny in the colonial modern
society. And, it was the self declaration of giving up writing in order not
to cooperate with Japanese Imperialism, too.
