ABSTRACT

Until now, there has been no diachronic review on the titles of poems, part of the para-text in Korean contemporary history of criticism. Some of the actual criticisms on the titles of poems call only distinctiveness of the relevant works into question, omitting the advanced development of the titles. This paper pays attention to the role of the titles of the contemporary poetry that crystalize and reveal the meanings of the texts directly and aims to look into the phases of changes in the titles in the history of the contemporary poetry, the relationship between changes in the media and the titles, and perspective of the history of modern poetry through the titles. Regarding the titles, this paper discusses three dimensions: First, it discusses the process of changes in the titles from poetry in the time of enlightenment through Choi Nam-sun's prose poems in the history of modern Korean poetry. Second, it discusses changes in the titles corresponding to changes and development of the medium. Third, it discusses the conditions and origins of modern poetry related to the types of the titles. The advanced development of general the titles is in the order of untitled poems through passive metonymic titles to active metonymic titles. However, as the distinctiveness of the establishment of Korean modernity, historical development, from poetry in the time of enlightenment to Choi Nam-sun's prose poems does not follow this sequential development. The development of the titles from untitled poems directly to the active metonymic titles shows one aspect of the history of modern Korean poetry established in the space of the hybrid. This historic development of the titles describes the subject on the three dimensions presented above. This paper interprets the characteristics of the titles in each period and describes the discussion of the titles of poems. It is because there is no existing authenticated discussion which can be so called ‘discussion of the titles of poems.’ Thus, the significance of this paper is divided broadly into two: First, it establishes values of the titles of poems used in the actual criticism. Second, it establishes a general discussion of the titles of poems. This perspective on the titles will be clearer when the titles after modern free verses are discussed together.
