A Study on the Characteristics and Change of ‘Deoduida’

Lee, Kum Young | 2024, (127) | pp.41~61 | number of Cited : 0

This paper provides a detailed examination of the form, syntactic characteristics, and semantic traits of ‘Deoduida’ as it appears in literature data from the 15th century to the early 20th century. The diachronic change pattern of ‘Deoduida’ has not been clearly delineated, as ‘Deoduida’ is also used as a form of ‘Deodida’ in Contemporary Korean, possessing adjective qualities primarily signifying ‘slow’ or ‘ late’. However, ‘Deoduida’ differes not only in form but also in syntactic and semantic characteristics from ‘Deodida’ in Contemporary Korean, as summarized below. First, ‘Deoduida’ was consistently used from the 15th century to the early 20th century in several forms such as ‘Deodʌida’ and ‘Deodeda’. The ‘Deodida’ variant was confirmed by a few instances in data from the mid-18th century. Secondly, ‘Deoduida’ during the medieval and modern Korean periods not only showed adjectival usage but also examples of intransitive and transitive verb usage. Additionally, the Woori-mal Big Dictionary and Joseon-mal Dictionary indicate that ‘Deoduida’ has intransitive verb usage in addition to being an adjective, while the Standard Korean Dictionary only lists it as an adjective. This suggests that ‘Deoduida’ has gradually lost its verb usage since the 20th century. Thirdly, ‘Deoduida’ expressed detailed meanings such as: ‘1) Not moving at a rapid speed and being slow’, ‘2) The process or duration of something is long’, ‘3) It has passed beyond the predetermined time or when it is appropriate’, ‘4) To delay or prolong the progress or time of something’, and ‘5) A person’s judgment or senses are dull and not sharp.’ However, in Contemporary Korean, it seems that meanings such as 4) and 5) are no longer in use.

A study on the film image of Kim Jong-sam's poetry

This paper examines what kind of poetic meaning film images evoke, based on works that appropriate actual film images in Kim Jong-sam's poetry. Poetry works linked to each film are broadly divided into three categories and analyzed into black images, Jewish images, and Indian images. The image of black people is examined in the poem “Black Orphée,” which references the film “Orfeu Negro.” In particular, Kim Jong-sam's interest in the black people is confirmed based on a short review of the movie he left behind. The Jewish image is confirmed through a series of Auschwitz-related poems that reference the fillm “Kapo.” By citing changes in image production before and after the film's release, we discuss how the film influenced the image of Kim Jong-sam's poetry. The image of Indians is examined in the poems “Cheyenne” and “Women of the West” that refer to the films “Cheyenne Autumn” and “Soldier Blue”. It is discussed that the images of the two films were borrowed, but the images were placed in a way that integrated the two films into the poem rather than using the films' narratives or arguments as is. As a result, through the above film images, we studied how an alienated being, the Holocaust, and genocide, which were Kim Jong-sam's poetic interests, operate. These three film images, inspired by movies, have a common characteristic of being a subjugated and underdog group that was historically persecuted by other ethnic groups or races. As a person who experienced war firsthand, poet Kim Jong-sam has constantly denied the enormous violence that ignores the dignity of life and robs humanity of humanity. In the same context, he also showed deep compassion for those who were persecuted by that great violence. This study viewed that poet Kim Jong-sam's thoughts were consistently used in producing poems related to films.

Feminism transcending cultural heterogeneity -A study on the translation and reception of Jo Nam-ju's novels in China-

Zhang Naiyu | 2024, (127) | pp.251~274 | number of Cited : 0

The article primarily delves into the translation and reception of Jo Namju's works in China from the perspective of readers. Firstly, it chronicles the characteristics of the Chinese translation of Jo Namju's novels and the evolving reception among readers. It reveals that works like “Kim Ji-young, Born 1982" by Jo Namju have garnered acceptance in China largely due to the symbiotic relationship between traditional print media and film adaptations. The original novels in print deepen readers' understanding of the films, while film adaptations in turn stimulate interest in the original novels. Through this combined effort, “Kim Ji-young, Born 1982" has emerged as Jo Namju's most discussed and influential work in China. Secondly, Jo Namju's works resonate with the thematic expectations of Chinese readers, fostering profound spiritual resonance and value recognition. Chinese readers extend their perspective to the broader East Asian cultural context, interpreting Jo Namju's works as embodying a “feminism" that transcends the cultural heterogeneity between China and South Korea. Moreover, they offer diverse evaluations of Jo Namju's works based on their artistic and socio-cultural value. While Chinese readers acknowledge the artistic and literary flaws in “Kim Ji-young, Born 1982," they do not overlook its powerful emotional impact and cultural influence. Adopting a chronological narrative form, the novel portrays the real-life struggles of ordinary Korean women and the identity crisis and spiritual dilemmas faced by female communities, prompting contemporary women to reflect on and seek self-realization. When dealing with such poignant social issues, perhaps reducing the so-called literary qualities can amplify its power to awaken hearts. Jo Namju's novels often consciously align personal experiences with broader social-historical contexts or problem awareness. In this sense, the simplicity of language, the weakening of artistic techniques, and aesthetic effects may be actively pursued by Jo Namju to highlight the unique significance of these works that bridge the gap between the personal and the social, between “documentary" and “fiction."

From PostColonial Amnesia To Postmemory - A Study on the Transition in Theatrical Memory and Representation of Japanese Military Sexual Slavery -

Choi Jung | 2024, (127) | pp.303~342 | number of Cited : 0

PDF

This study aims to examine the changing patterns of the theatrical memories and reproductions of the Japanese Military Sexual Slavery and shed light on their social and cultural implications. For these purposes, the study examined the reproduction patterns of the major works published one after another in the 1990s after Kim Hak-sun's open testimony in 1991 and also the works since 2010 when changes to the theatrical reproduction of the Japanese military Sexual Slavery were actively detected. The works created in the 1990s focused on telling the historical truth of the Japanese Military Sexual Slavery issue, which had long been forgotten, and reporting the brutality of Japanese imperialism. Most of all, they integrated drama on showing the pain of Japanese Military Sexual Slavery as “victims of sexual violence in the history of national suffering." The emotions of shock, fear, anger, and sadness maximized in these works hold legitimacy in that they were the main elements to induce sympathy and solidarity over the “Sexual Slavery" issue from people. On the other hand, however, they have limitations in that they block critical perceptions to search for the accurate understanding and solution of the violent events as they bury people in shock, anger, and grudge. The works published after 2010 have the viewpoint and problematic consciousness of the postmemory generation who sees the Japanese Military Sexual Slavery issue as a cultural trauma that has not been solved and still has an influence in the present times rather than a painful history of the past. This period witnessed the emergence of works that dropped the nationalistic and sentimental viewpoint to look at the Japanese Military Sexual Slavery and expanded the issue as a community issue by projecting the contemporary problematic consciousness. Unlike the works from the past, they were not buried in the “testimony frame" and made active access to the historical trauma of the previous generation through “imagination and creative involvement," seeking “solidarity over pain" and thinking over their accountability as the next generation. At last, a new pattern of cultural memories as this postmemory or “solodarity postmemory” began to show actively.
