AB - This study focus on the question about ‘Legend is based on tragic beauty.’ And we suggest sublime as an esthetic category in korean legend. Because korean legend has a strong mythical characteristic, and sublime is wider category than tragic beauty. For this purpose, we choose the work, Jangjamot Legend.
Taboo in Jangjamot Legend is twofold and transcendental with holiness and uncleanness. So, Breaking taboo is also twofold and transcendental. The behavior that daughter-in-law of sincerity looks back is holy and uncleanness. That is a contact with the holiness. So, that must be understood from the point of sublime instead of tragic beauty.
Legend is similar in sublime as an esthetic category to myth. But it is different in the way of expression with myth. Myth consolidate holiness and uncleanness with holiness as the center. On the other hand, legend consolidate holiness and uncleanness with uncleanness as the center. So, we can suggest that legend is based on sublime as an esthetic category.
