문학지리학 연구의 정체성과 연구방법론 고찰

권혁래(Kwon, Hyeok-Rae) 우리문학회 2016 우리文學硏究 Vol.0 No.51

이 논문에서 필자는 지리학과 문학 연구 분야에서 진행되어 온 문학지리학의 연구방법론 및 성과를 종합적으로 검토함으로써 문학지리학 연구의 정체성과 연구방법론을 고찰하고자 하였다. 학문적 개념으로는 1990년대 초부터 지리학자들이 해외의 연구성과를 도입하며 문학지리학을 소개하고 연구를 시작하였으며, 국문학계에서 2000년대 중반 이후로 연구를 시작하였다. 지리학 연구자들의 문학지리학 연구는 지리학의 논리 위에서 문학을 활용하여 지리학 연구의 외연을 넓혀 왔다. 이은숙과 김진영, 심승희 등은 실증주의적 접근, 인본주의적 접근, 구조주의적 접근을 통해 문학작품에 표현된 장소 경험을 연구하였다. 현재 문학작품 소스 발굴 및 작품 이해가 제한된 상태에서 문학지리학 연구 전망은 밝지 않다. 이 점에서 이은숙이 공동연구 방식을 통해 문학작품에서 도시공간, 이민공간, 여가공간을 주목하고, 장소 마케팅, 여가, 문화적 정체성, 문학공간의 DB화 등의 주제를 연구해온 것은 연구의 다양성 및 가능성을 보여준다고 생각한다. 국문학계에서 조동일은 지방문학사, 또는 지역문학 연구의 개념으로 문학지리학 연구를 시도하였다. 김태준은 ‘문학지리’, ‘심상공간’이라는 용어를 쓰면서 방향성을 제시하였는데, 그의 연구는 ‘문학기행 에세이’, ‘지역문화 연구’ 성격을 지닌다. 동국대 현대문학 연구자들은 『근대 한국의 문학지리학』을 공동집필하면서 ‘표상’이라는 개념을 사용하며 지리학자들과는 별개의 인식과 방법을 가지고 문학 공간의 의미를 해석하였다. 이승수는 연행노정 및 중국 배경 소설을 연구하면서 인문지리학적 관점과 서사지리 개념을 사용하면서 훈고학적 고증과 현지답사를 통한 문학의 공간을 연구하였다. 권혁래는 전란을 소재로 한 조선후기 중국 배경 역사소설을 연구하면서 문학공간을 실증적으로 고증하고, 문학작품에 그려진 공간(장소)와 서사 간의 관계를 고찰하였다. 문학에 그려진 노정․공간이 왜곡된 것이나 장소 형상화에 깃든 작가의식을 스토리텔링의 방식으로 해명․고찰하였다. 탁원정, 이강엽, 조재현, 신태수, 김수연 등은 고소설 작품에서 공간의 특성, 공간과 갈등의 관계를 주목하면서 고소설 작품의 공간을 해석하는 적실한 방식을 제시하였는데, 이는 다양한 고소설 작품의 공간을 분석하고 해석하는 모델로서의 기능을 발휘할 것으로 예상한다. 문학에서는 문학지리학에 대한 좀 더 체계적이고 논리적인 접근이 필요하다. ‘지방문학사’, ‘지역문화 연구’ 개념으로는 충분하지 않다. ‘심상지리’, ‘표상’, ‘서사지리’, ‘문학지도’, ‘스토리텔링’ 등의 개념을 발전시키고, 지리학계에서 진행해온 ‘장소와 장소성, 경관, 인문지리’ 논의를 수용하여 공간, 장소에 대해 심층적인 접근이 필요하다. 아울러 지리학과 문학 연구자들은 각자의 영역에서 심화시켜 온 연구성과를 공유하며, 상이한 개념과 용어 문제, 문학공간의 활용 방법에 대해 토의할 필요가 있다. This study aimed to perform a comprehensive review of the overall research findings on literary geography, and to further discuss the issues and challenges found during the course of the review. The academic terminology associated with literary geography first came to the fore in the early 1990’s when geographers introduced overseas research findings. Literary geography has been studied in earnest in the Korean literature community since the mid-2000‘s. The studies on literary geography have primarily been conducted on the utilization of the underlying logic of geography within literature. To be more specific, Eunsook Lee, Jinyeong Kim, and Seunghui Sim took empirical, humanistic, and structural approaches, respectively, to study the experiences of a place expressed in literary work. Under the currently restricted conditions associated with the excavation of literary sources, as well as the processes required to understand literary works, the outlook of the research on literary geography is not promising. However, using a collaborative research approach, Lee’s study described how places can be urban spaces, immigration spaces, or leisure spaces. Lee’s research on the database of literary space, cultural identity, leisure, and place marketing holds significance in that it shows the possibility and diversity of literary geography research at this point in time. Dongil Cho tried to study literary geography by exploring the history of local or regional literature. Taejun Kim presented the direction of the study of regional culture and the wiring of literature tour by using the terminology “the imagery space” and “the literary geography”. Modern literature researchers from Dongguk University used the concept of representation to interpret the meaning of literary spaces when they co-wrote “Korea’s Modern Literary Geography” in order to express differences between their perceptions and research methods compared to those of geographers. Seungsu Lee proposed a research method for literary spaces by using exegetically historical research and field surveys, adopting the concept of an epical space from anthropology. Hyeokrae Kwon empirically studied the historical evidence of spaces found in a novel, while discussing the relationship between spaces and their accounts, and the storytelling style of the spaces. In literary studies, a more systematic and logical approach is needed for literary geography. It is not sufficient to use terminology such as “the history of local literature” and “the study of regional literature”. More in-depth approaches to spaces and places should be introduced by further developing the concepts of imagery space, representation, epic geography, literature map, and storytelling, while considering discussions of place and sense of place, landscape, and human geography.

In this study, I examined the development of cultural contents by using the Story of a Refugee Returning Choi Chuk, a Schola from Namwon. The cultural content’s elements of Choi Chuk-jeon are narrative, characters, theme, and place. The narrative of Choi Chuk-jeon is very dramatic because affection and narration are closely related to the development of the 17th century. The characters of Choi Chuk-jeon are various and distinctive such as Choi Chuk, Okyoung, Ming Dynasty soldier Yumoon Yeo etc. The theme of Choi Chuk-jeon is friendly and universal in terms of love, family love, and peace. The background place of Choi Chuk-jeon is attractive because it has Namwon area and East Asia. I presented four things about the direction of Choi Chuk-jeon's cultural contents production. First, it is a method of storytelling Choi Chuk-jeon and publishing it as a liberal arts book by adding human information and visual expression. Based on this book, I described how to develop Choi Chuk-jeon tour products, build a museum of peace themes, and produce TV dramas.

다카기 도시오(高木敏雄) 편찬 『조선교육옛이야기[新日本敎育昔噺]』(1917)의 서지와 해학의 미학

권혁래(Kwon, Hyeok-rae),조은애(Cho, Eun-ae) 숭실대학교 한국문학과예술연구소 2018 한국문학과 예술 Vol.27 No.-

일본 신화학자 다카기 도시오(高木敏雄:1876-1922)는 1910년대 초부터 조선의 옛이야기들을 조사하였고, 52편의 작품을 선집하여 1917년 『조선교육옛이야기[新日本敎育昔噺]』를 간행하였다. 다카기는 1910년대 내내 ‘동화’ 연구와 함께 일본의 고전서사를 근대 동화로 재편 · 간행하는 작업을 진행하였으며, 같은 문제의식과 방법을 조선 문학에 적용해 문헌설화 및 구비설화작품을 선별하고 조선옛이야기선집을 간행하였다. 다카기는 ‘재미’와 ‘유익’이라는 기준으로 조선의 옛이야기 수록작품들을 선별하였다. 다카기는 『조선교육옛이야기』에 소담(笑談) 유형을 많이 수록하였고, 골탕 먹이는 이야기, 어리석은 자의 실패 이야기 등에서 고지식함을 비웃고 지혜 및 꾀를 강조하는 한편, ‘해학의 미학’을 보여주었다. 조선 옛이야기의 특성을 ‘해학’에서 찾으려 했던 다카기의 시도는 근대 한국 설화 · 동화연구사에서 매우 흥미 있고 중요한 결과물로 평가될 것이다. Japanese mythologist Toshio Takagi(1876-1922) investigated the old stories of Joseon from the early 1910s and picked up the 52 works and published An anthology of Korean educational old stories in 1917. He recorded many types of sodam (laughs), and he showed `aesthetics of humor` in the way of ridicule, comedy, satire, etc. Takagi tries to emphasize the educational and instructional character of the old story of Joseon while adding the qualification of `education`, but the works are not educational or doctrinal. Takagi published the old story of Joseon (Mukashibanashi) in terms of `laughter` and `fun` rather than `educational` factors. Takagi Toshio`s attempt to find the nature or essence of the old story of Joseon in `Haehak (humor)` will be evaluated as a very interesting and important result in modern Korean folk tales and fairy tales.

태평양전쟁의 문화적 부산물, 『구스모의 꽃: 동인도동화집』(1942)의 내용과 성격

The Flower of Kusumo: Indonesian Fairy Tales Collection (1942) contains 20 works written by Japanese author Koide Shyogo in a fairy tale style sentence. Based on culture and emotion, works are largely classified into two types. The first type is a story about gods, fairies, rice, and the sea that Indonesians worship or know well. In the 13 works, there are many depictions of God, and the idea of God is strong. The second type is a story that shows tricksters' performance and notions of good or bad. In the seven works, the aesthetics of satire, a sense of criticism of reality, and a people-oriented personality are well revealed. The Flower of Kusumo is a collection of old stories of colonial states published under the political intention of the Japanese military during the Pacific War. However, other than the 'preface', there were no cases in which political voices were made through the text of the work or the voice of the narrator. In the subject or character of the work, it is not particularly noticeable to be interpreted politically, but rather, the pure literary character stands out. In this regard, it is necessary to take a closer look at The Flower of Kusumo as an Indonesian fairy tales collection in the early modern period and the publication of an Asian fairy tales collection.

This thesis examines recent trends in literary geography research being conducted in the fields of Korean literature and geography, and discusses research prospects. In the study of the literary space of the geography research, the direction of the research topic has changed from ‘explanation of the landscape and grasping geographic information ’ to ‘focusing on the dynamics and product value of the literary space ’ . In addition, I reviewed the research cases of place marketing, DB work in literature space, and information and communication utilization. In literary research, it is found that research on sense of place and image space through literary space, educational use cases, travel literature and travel experiences are actively taking place. The prospect of research on literary geography needs to be found in terms of first, in-depth interpretation of literary space’s sense of place, storytelling based on this, and use of contents. Second, a geography researcher and a Korean literature researcher comprehensively grasp the literary space and do dictionary work and database work. It is necessary to work together to produce digital contents using information and communication technology. In terms of research, utilization, and expression of literary geography, it is necessary for literature researchers, geography researchers, cultural contents studies, tourism management studies, humanities and information science researchers to discuss, collaborate, and conduct fusion research. In this case, practical research results of literary geography research will come out.

〈최척전〉에 그려진 '유랑'의 의미

권혁래(Kwon Hyeok-Rae) 국어국문학회 2008 국어국문학 Vol.- No.150

The various types of wandering done by the characters described in Choi Cheok Jeon are influenced both by the writer's own personal experiences and the historical realities of the time. There are three types of wandering described in Choi Cheok Jeon. The first type of wandering is the wandering of the refugee. When he came to Ming, Choi Cheok was escaping the reality of having lost his family. However, he did not settle anywhere at all. Similarly, the old Hu-geum soldier from Sakju was an immigrant who had suffered from tyranny. The second type of wandering is the wandering of the captive. Ogyeong, who was captured and brought to Japan, only avoided harsh suffering because she was under a kind owner. She settled in Hangju, Ming after meeting Choi Cheok in Vietnam. Choi Cheok was captured in the Simha battle, but later returned with the help of a Hu-geum soldier. The third type of wandering is the wandering of the fugitive. Jo Wui-han described another type of family separation in the episode of the wandering, separation and reuniting of the Ming soldier, Jin Wui-kyoeng, and his daughter. In the reality of a time in which there were numerous vagrants, each scarred in their own way, whether physically or emotionally, the theme of 'wandering' exposes the scars of many people that were caused by the war and shares their pain, including the pain of Jo Wui-han himself.

문학지리학의 관점에서 본 등주(登州)

권혁래(Kwon Hyeok-Rae) 국어국문학회 2010 국어국문학 Vol.- No.154

From a historical perspective, Deungju in Shandong, China has significance in terms of the diplomatic relationship between China and Korea. In this paper, the meaning of Deungju from the perspective of the literary geography is discussed by analyzing descriptions of Deungju in various literary works, including poems based on travel logs at the end of Gorye dynasty, Jocheon Voyage Log by Hong Ik-han, and Gim Yeong-cheol Jeon. Deungju was depicted as a stop over connecting the land and the sea route in the course of travel to and from China at the end of Goryeo dynasty and the early Joseon dynasty. A lodging house at Deungju Station and Bongrae station, Bongraegak, and Bojeongsa are the representative examples shown in the envoy travel literature. Gwon Geon and Jeong Mong-ju used the place as material for their literary works. A 30day literary log was recorded in the Jocheon Voyage Log by Hong Ik-han(1625). Here, detailed descriptions of the landscape and traditions of Deungju and the places visited by the envoys as they successfully performed their mission were also included. Deungju in Gim Yeong-cheol Jeon was described as a city where love, happiness and the pain of separation between Gim Yeong-cheol and Lady Jeon were shared. It is expected that the depictions of Deungju in Korean literary works could serve as a significant historical record, and strengthen the ties between China and Korea.
