ABSTRACT

Children’s imagination fade as they grow older, but poets never fail to retain an inner peace in their hearts, where they can continue to roam freely in the universe of dreams like children. The French philosopher Gaston Bachelard studies the poet’s yearning for childhood dreams, using C. G. Jung’s analysis of the inner psyche. This paper attempts to apply Bachelard’s anima poetics to the themes of loneliness, seasons, lighting and water in Yu Kwang-chung’s poems, in order to explain the continuity between childhood dreams and dreams of the poet.
