해방직후 소설담론 양상 고찰 = A Study on the Discursive Modes of Korean Novels in Directly after liberation

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The subject of this study is Korean novels from 1945 to 1950, during which time the country went through its liberation from Japanes colonialism, the separate occupation by the US and the USSR, and the Korean Civil War, In this tumultuous period, Korean was experiencing a social chaos, in which the new lack of and established political authority gave rise to various conflicting voices in search for a new nation-state. Amid this cacophonous endeavor for the construction of the nation-state, Korean novels came to serve as the main vehicle of the nationalist discourses, The incredibly dynamic characteristic of the contemporary navels is a result of the sudden flourishing of ideological discourses that had been suppressed under the colonial regime. The lively debates of the time inspired the period's literary products with an unprecedented vigor.
The study of korean novels from the concerned period has been shaped and limited by the three-stand idealogical division of the Left, the Right, and the Neutral. Such a viewpoint has its origin to the sharp ideological split of Korean Nationalist in the aftermath of the liberation. However, the novels were no transparent embodyment of official discourses. Such an easy approach overlooks literary works potential to actively react to the society while simultaneously reflecting the social realty. My study aims to overcoming the simplistic perspective.
Refusing the ideological fixation of a text, it delves into the complex layers of individual narratives, ultimately to recover a schema of the contemporary novels.
First of all, this paper explores the main motive of the period's discourses and the historical condition of theirs, when koreans gained their independence, what captured their minds most strongly was an illusion of the nation, The vision to a unified nation provided the basic of communication to the newly liverated people, but the serious ideological internal divisions aggrandixed the necessity of the discursive construction of a nation as a sacrosanct illusion.
Hence, on the one hand, the national illusion works as a common base of signification, but on the other hand, it also introduces the problem of doubts into the meaning relations in discourses.
