ABSTRACT

Based on the fact that Kim Kwang-kyun confessed "After the Modernity of the 「Inner city」" in his second poetry, only the psalms corresponding to the 『Flashlight』 and the third part of 『Port of call』 are limited to Kim's modernism poetry. And the psalms that reveal the death consciousness and absence of dwelling in the 『Port of call』 are regarded as experimental lyric poems in the "uninterrupted experimental process". Through these psalms, I examined the aspects of lyricism that play a role as a transit point for Kim Kwang-kyun in the future. It is a self-seeking desire to establish a new lyric in the 'modern world of the catastrophic' which is the 'lyric' that he wants to embed in his poetry. 'Modern times of catastrophe' refers to the time of war and death, where naturalistic lyricism became impossible. And the path that Kim Kwang-kyun tried to go on was Kim Kwang-kyun's unique methodology of new poetry. As Kim Kwang-kyun reveald in his critical essay 「Dispute of lyric poetry」 complied the 'dispute of new generation' in the early 1940's, that way is "poetry will raise the critical spirit of reality" and "morphology" can project both "content" and "form" Kim Kwang-kyun was a realist who built his own poetry world while maintaining the necessity of 'other lyricism' demanded by the present age by observing the methodological view of modern lyric poetry in the Korean context. It is the main significance of this paper to refrain from the limited revaluation in the 1930s modernism standard, and to prepare a diverse criticism line of Kim Kwang-kyun's poetry in the future.
