한국의 프랑스연구현황 = French Studies in Korea

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

From the liberation to the present, the characteristics of French Studies in Korea have been as follows : 1) a concentration on French language and literature; 2) if there are non-French language and literature articles used, they are concerned with historical events and the research of French thinkers. There are in rare cases articles which concerned with new issues. 3) French Studies are less developed than studies concerning other European countries.
The major objective of this paper is to confirm these characteristics of French Studies in Korea. To do this we conducted and analysis of several Korean scholarly directories: Korean Master and Doctors’ Thesis inventory(1991-2001), Index of social science research(1995-2002), Research on French studies (1992-2001), Revue d’Etudes Francaises(1995-2002). The results are as follows.
1) 10 of 18 articles between 1983 to 1990 concerned French language and literature, 178 of 223 between 1991 to 2001 were concerned with French language and literature. It shows that trends of this concentration is very strong.(80%: 178/223)
2) The survey found 45 non-French language and literature articles between 1991 and 2001 (management 1, economics 4, pedagogy 7, law 12, politics 7, philosophy 14). Among these articles, theses in the field of management and economics are concerned with European integration and they are the research of French thinkers. Some of the other works found are political research, but they are not noteworthy because they reference only the most well-known French thinkers and not more recent ones. (Louis Althusser 2, Michel Foucault 3, J-J Rousseau 2, Merly-Ponty 3, Descartes 1, Bergson 1, Paul Ricoeur 1...)
3) The general articles, which were classified into the European countries(1995-2002) are as follows; 258: France 17, Germany 61, England 22, Sweden 13, European Union 42, Eastern Europe 76, and other 28. There are only 17 articles for French studies(7%) in comparison with other countries studies results. We can easily find highly specific German studies concerning unification, which is very hot issue for the Koreans. Similarly we can find very specific and detailed studies for other European countries, such as studies of social welfare regarding Sweden or of the Parliament for England. But for the field of French Studies, few such studies are available.
4) In the social science field, we find a similar phenomenon -in particular a concentration on philosophy and history, and also on French thinkers.
5) In the Fine Arts field, most of the master degrees are concentrated on famous French painters/artists.
We find that Doctoral dissertation in Korea are concentrated in either French language and literature, or on philosophy and history.
Despite this, the articles of the Korean Association of French Studies tend to deal with the actual problems of France. Finally, it is the conclusion of this study that it is time for French Studies in Korea to catch up with the rest of European studies.
