AB - This paper aims to investigate the aspect of the relation between literature and social history, with focusing on the new and various characters in the narrative-oriented gasa texts of the Late Choseon. Main targets to analyze are the female characters in YongBuGa(용부가), BokSeonHwaEumGa(복선화음가), DenDongEoMiHwaJeonGa(덴동어미화전가), NoCheoNyeoGa(노처녀가), SinGaJeon(신가전).
The females in the texts experience troubles and crises related with each one's marriage, go through channels to overcome or depart from it, and arrive at the end of reward and punishment. Based on it, I can interpret the ideal and the desire of gasa's enjoying group of those days. The enjoying group showed an ambivalent attitude about the reality elements such as wealthy and labor, raised the problem of stability and settlement in a community, and emphasized the responsibility of the independent life to follow the fortunes and to know one's place.
The phenomenon itself that female characters stood out in the late gasa is worth noticing. The narrative elements in the texts of the character-oriented gasa have different functions and qualities than what are in the works of novel do. The readers of novel appreciate a work based upon the premise of typicality, but the readers of gasa appreciate a work to understand and empathize the realistic elements and the reality of the character. The character-oriented gasa is a good literary example that a traditional poetry form didn't stay at an immobilized frame but respond to the changes required by the real society.
