AB - Examining Su-eun(睡隱) Gang Hang(姜沆, 1567~1618)'s and , this article aims to enlarge an understanding of Su-eun's poetry. A Su-eun's literary collection, Sueunjip(睡隱集) includes his poems on arbors(52 poems under 14 titles), the poems of which and are only written as a series of poems.
First, I examined the context in which and were written by consulting Su-eun's two essays, Suwalljung and Chihun. Su-eun wrote to encourage Jung Sul(鄭渫) the owner of Suwalljung, who had retired to the country after his political failure. Meanwhile, was written to emphasize an ironic value of ‘silliness[Chi(癡)]’ in Jung Yong(丁鎔)'s life as honesty and sincerity, who was the owner of Chihun and Su-eun's in-law.
Although both and are a series of poems that contains a good deal of landscape, there are remarkable differences in the ways in which poems in each series are titled. The titles of the poems in vividly describe the landscape of Suwalljung, but the titles in merely present natural objects that imply human nature. As for poetic forms, describes the landscape in a well-structured form: Introduction(Poem1)–Body(Poem2~Poem24)–Conclusion(Poem25~Poem30); however, consists of only 2 parts, Body(Poem1~Poem7) and Conclusion (Poem8), in which the described natural elements mirror Sir. Chi(癡翁)'s life.
Then, I looked into poetic styles. creates an ideal world that embodies the eternity and constancy of nature, harmony and variety, and human life close to nature. Meanwhile, highlights the significance of ‘silly yet honest life’ in a simple description of natural elements that symbolize fidelity and honor.
Finally, I examined poetic vision of and . Su-eun, Jung Sul and Jung Yong, all of them suffered from ‘abandonment’ and returned to ‘nature’ after abandonment. Thus, Su-eun composed the poems for both Jung Sul and Jung Yong in empathy with them and tried to recover his self-esteem by healing his wounds in nature.
