AB - The purpose of this paper is to examine the homology of semantic structure between the poem 「The Gardener」 by Kim Jong-sam and the narrative structure of the Midas mythology. More specifically, 「The Gardener」 and the story of Midas in Greek mythology have similar motifs and plot developments. Also, by observing the poetic journey of Kim Jong-sam that focused on the culture and art of the West, in this paper tried to widen the emotional expansion of his poetic world as well as his poetic influence of literary resonance.
The author of this paper determined that ‘a sense of guilt’ and ‘fetishism’ commonly found in the 「The Gardener」 and Midas mythology present an alternative direction to Kim‘s poetic world. It was concluded that these characteristics, while posing a new poetic challenge of overcoming fetishism to Kim, have be boiled down to the issue of recovering poetic independence.
In regards to the ‘poverty with no content’ and ‘pure art-oriented’ images derived from within, we considered them to be attributed to the unique homology generated by 「The Gardener」 and the story of Midas mythology.
