AB - Shamanism has been combined with passivity or sense of defeat. This has been caused by the episteme of understanding Shamanism as unreasonable and this attitude toward Shamanism remains unchanged. In order to reconsider Shamanism, this essay examines it in relation to mythological thinking, focusing on Kang Eunkyo’s works. For this purpose, this essay pays attention to the world view of Shamanism that connotes an “Ontological Turn”. In the early days of Kang Eunkyo’s works, there is an inquiry into the problem of seeing things that are not routinely recognized.
This shows the thoughts of nihilism, death, and absence. In the middle days of Kang Eunkyo’s works, she pays attention to the struggle between life and death with the “Baridegi” motif from narrative Shaman Songs. It is related to the recovering of symmetry between life and death. In Kang Eunkyo’s late works, the boundaries between the ego and ‘The other’ disappear, and the schizophrenic subject appears. This schizophrenic subject of enunciation is related to the fact that it can be understood in terms of creating heterogeneous networks with entities and objects.
