이 논문은 영국 소설의 효시라고 할 수 있는『로빈슨 크루소』가 발간된 1719년부터 1950년까지 영국 고전 소설들의 한국어 번역 실태를 조사 연구한다. 우선적으로 그 시기 동안의 영국소설의 역사를 시대별로 나누어 각 시대를 대표하는 작가들과 대표작품을 간략하게 살펴보고, 이어서 어느 작가의 어떤 작품들이 한국어로 번역되었는지를 조사하고 그 번역된 작품들 중에는 어떤 작품들이 번역본이 많은지를 살펴보았다. 이 조사를 바탕으로 영국소설이 우리말로 번역된 일반적인 원인과 경향, 우리말로 번역된 작품들이 번역된 특별한 이유와 번역된 작품의 번역본 다소의 이유 등을 알아보고, 향후 영국소설의 우리말 번역의 방향에 대해 생각해 보았다. This essay aims at studying the actual state of Korean translation of the British novels from 1719 that saw the publication of Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe to 1950. Firstly, a short history of the British novel is surveyed respectively in the eighteenth century, the Romantic period, the Victorian period, and the first half of the twentieth century. It contains major as well as minor novelists and their important novels. Secondly, it is surveyed whether the novels of the authors in each period have been translated into Korean, in other words, whose novels have been translated and which novels have been translated. And surveyed is how many translations certain novels have. Lastly, based on the former survey, this essay considers the reasons why British novels are translated into Korean, why certain novels of certain writers are translated, and why certain novels have many translations. It also considers what has been in need in Korean translation of the British novel and which course the Korean translation of British novels will take in the future.

Daniel Defoe adopted a form of the spiritual autobiography for hisfirst novel Robinson Crusoe, allowing the eponymous hero to describehis life as commercially and religiously advantageous. The novel, despiteits religious tone, reveals Crusoe’s ceaseless attempt to satisfy his desireof acquisition. Indeed, Ian Watt, in The Rise of the Novel, identifiedCrusoe as an economic individual in the early modern age. Crusoe’splantation in Brazil, cultivated by indentured servants and slaves, bringsan enormous sum of money by the novel`s conclusion, and his slavingtrade to Guinea ends in his isolation on the island. His wealth, rooted inslavery and colonization, enables us to read his account of life alongwith his colonial desires, and it is interesting that he is not entirelyinsensitive to the wrongs of slavery and violence against natives. Hisjustification of colonial desires, which an economic reading of the novelilluminates critically, is intriguingly involved in his humane emotions. Inthis paper, I do not challenge but rather reinforce the economic approachto the novel by demonstrating that Crusoe`s emotions?such as pity,compassion, anxiety, fear, abhorrence, and indignation?allow him todisclaim any responsibility for his colonial desires and thus legitimizehis pursuit of interest. At first, I examine how Crusoe justifies hisslavery in the case of Xury and Friday and then reinterpret the massacrein the novel in terms of Crusoe`s emotions. Crusoe, a colonialist during the early modern age, betrays humaneemotions to depict himself as a man of humanity. Yet his heartlesspursuit of interest is never defeated by his humane concern about others. While he always endeavors to gratify his desires, and enjoys the benefitsthereof, slavery and the massacre portrayed in the novel demonstrate thatCrusoe not only denies any sort of responsibility for such atrocities butalso attempts to evade criticism of his decisions and behaviors. Thenovel, written when British colonial involvement in the New World wasgrowing, not only depicted the acquisition of advantages but alsoincluded the elaborated rhetorical strategy of self-justification, makingevident the close relationship between the rise of the novel andeconomic transformation in Britain.

Dreaming the Rebellious Dream: Reconstruction of the Happy Marriage in Eliza Haywood`s The History of Jemmy and Jenny Jessamy

( Mi Ok Sa ) 한국근대영미소설학회 2015 근대 영미소설 Vol.22 No.2

Eliza Haywood is one of the most important, influential women writers in the eighteenth century who made contribution to the development of the British novel. Haywood is well known for her descriptions of unconventional gender roles in which female characters explicitly pursue their physical desire and unhappy marriage in which wives suffer from unfair marital status and their husbands’ tyrannical behaviors. These unconventional descriptions caused Haywood’s valuable works to be underestimated and ignored by critics until 1970s. In this paper I explore these features by focusing on her later novel, The History of Jemmy and Jenny Jessamy which was written in her “moral” period. By doing so, I offer an extended examination of The History of Jemmy and Jenny Jessamy, a work that has suffered from critical neglect. Furthermore, the examination of these subversive characteristics in this novel corrects what I argue is a mistaken bifurcation of Haywood’s novel output into two periods: amatory and “moral.” By demonstrating that Haywood offers her subversive descriptions, namely, the agency of female sexuality and unhappy marriage in the novel written in her “moral,” conservative period, I propose that Haywood’s contribution can be best understood by viewing her fictional production as a continuum that never wavers from offering a challenge to patriarchal ideology and practice. Most importantly, I show that the novel written in conservative period is much more subversive in terms of her reconstruction of the happy marriage: in her ideal view of marriage, there are mutual affection and equality between a husband and a wife.

『로빈슨 크루소』와 마귀의 딜레마

배경진 ( Kyung Jin Bae ) 한국근대영미소설학회 2015 근대 영미소설 Vol.22 No.1

In Robinson Crusoe, the eponymous hero mentions the devil several times, but the discovery of a footprint on the shore as well as his propagation of the religion to Friday forces him to consider seriously the nature of devil. He does not dare to deny the existence of apparitions, nor does he hold that the evil spirit directly intervenes in the life of human beings. Yet he is less concerned to explore the religious significance of the evil spirit; instead, his aim is to exploit the notion of the devil. While his statistical analysis of the devil hypothesis in the episode on the foot print helps him manage anxiety and fear, his assumption that the devil corrupted natives in America allows him to confirm the religious authority of the Bible and his religious belief in the divine will. Except for the episode of a grotto in which, Crusoe believes briefly, the devil lives, he does not have any occasion to think over the evil spirit until the end of the novel. More precisely, he does not feel the need to raise the question on the nature of evil spirits because the devil in the novel serves merely to be a psychological and rhetorical device for his survival on the island.

왕정복고 시대와 18세기의 시와 소설 속의 성직자

This article examines the relationship between clerical portraits in some works from the Restoration period to the eighteenth century and the artists' changing perceptions of their roles as social reformers. The ancient literary tradition of portraiture of clergymen, “balanced portrait,” in which both the negative and negative are juxtaposed, remained an integral part of the writers' technique and suggested their relationship to the clerical figures. In the works the writers employed the balanced portrait. After the Restoration, writers began destroying the conventional antithesis. Though the balance still existed, the references to good clergymen are politically charged and begin to question the clergy's role as moral reformer.

사무엘 존슨과 여성: 존슨과 18세기 여류 문인들의 모임인 “The Bluestockings”와의 관계 연구

강문순 ( Moon Soon Kang ) 근대 영미소설 학회 2007 근대 영미소설 Vol.14 No.1

This article studies the relationship of Samuel Johnson with the group of literary women known as the Bluestockings, most of whom had achieved some works of literature and gathered to discuss and criticize various subjects, mostly in a literary vein. Johnson developed close relationships with many of these women. In chauvinistic English society their efforts were not only ignored by many, but severely criticized by those who felt that the Bluestockings were overstepping their bounds as women. Despite these obstacles, these women survived, and some important male allies joined their cause, one of whom is Samuel Johnson. The support of these men carried considerable weight. Among the two women selected, Lennox would not be included in the Bluestockings without Johnson`s affection for her and admiration for her literary talents and her great courage in the face of hardships in her life. Through all his years, Johnson had been Charlotte`s friend, support, and her adviser in almost all of her works. Johnson helped her in every way, including writing her several prefaces for her works. Burney`s importance rests on her own accounts of her relationship with Johnson, which was closer and much more intimate than that with any other of the Bluestocking women. Her accounts are provides a most accurate picture of Johnson in the circle of women. Without Burney`s accounts, a lot of information concerning not only her relationship with Johnson, but also his relationships with the other Bluestocking women would have been missed.
