과학자와 개혁가 -영미 근대 소설에 나타난 의사

윤지관 ( Ji Kwan Yoon ) 영미문학연구회 2002 영미문학연구 Vol.2 No.-

The purpose of this essay is to approach the problem of modernity, by elucidating how medical doctors are represented in the 19th century British and American novel. Specifically this essay analyses two major doctor characters, Roger Chillingworth in Nathaniel Hawthorne`s The Scarlet Letter and Tertius Lydgate in George Eliot`s Middlemarch. These two characters represent essential features of a modern doctor which are related with the broader trends of modernization in process in their societies. At the same time, there is a difference in the depictions of these two characters. Hawthorne`s description of Chillingworth as a doctor delves into a ``demonic`` destructiveness of modern science. Eliot, on the other hand, presents Lydgate as a failed reformer. Her emphasis is laid on a realistic representation of the difficulties and complexities created by a modernization process.

This essay elucidates what the experiences of reading modern Western literature mean to us. It considers the questions as to whether we Korean people, as others to this 'foreign' literature, can read it in any different ways from those of most Western readers. It focuses on modernism especially, as modernism is the dominant mode of Western literary productions in the 20th century. Modernism being one of the most significant literary reponses to modernity as a social project, this essay also tries to discern both virtues and limitations of the latter in the 'postmodern' western society, as well as reflecting on its relevance to our own society which has experienced a very rapid and drastic changes of modernization.

세계문학 번역과 근대성 세계적 정전에 대한 물음

This essay attempts to understand a newly outburst publishing of world literary classics as forms of ``total collections`` in Korea in terms of late Korean and foreign discourses on world literature. While the first movements of translating and publishing world literatures, which arose and flourished in the 1960`s and 70`s, coincided with the accelerating modernization process of Korean society, its current second boom interestingly was triggered by the advent of a postmodern, globalized age. The recent projects of world literature translation and publication reveal some changes or developments: compared with the former ones, the lists of which accepted Eurocentric world literary classics, or rather an almost exact replica of its Japanese version at that. They reflect some trends of a ``critique of canon`` and include literary works from regional or cultural peripheries. This change still raises a fundamental question of whether it is a reaction against or for the overall crisis caused by a sweeping power of a globalized market. In this ambivalent situation, the idea of culture as a proper aim of reading world literature, should be reemphasized and reconsidered. A genuine significance of reading and publishing world literary classics collections can be enlivened when it contributes to a kind of cosmopolitan idea of culture which can be activated in national and regional dimensions.

As a way of thinking about the relationship between literary intellectuals and social reform, this essay reads in depth the responses of two mid-Victorian literary writers, George Eliot and Matthew Arnold, to the political reforms that culminated in the Second Reform Act in 1867. Eliot, through her Felix Holt, the Radical, tries to formulate a portrait of a genuine radical who devotes himself to educating working class people to live in dignity and responsibility. Her understanding and vision of the society revealed in the characterization of Felix Holt and especially in an essay added after finishing the main body of the novel, "Address to Working Men, by Felix Holt" turns out to be deeply immersed in the kind of conservatism that prevailed among the middle classes at that time. She raises, however, a question of culture, an abiding topic of debate in Victorian England, more deeply delved into in Matthew Arnold`s work. In his Culture and Anarchy, Arnold establishes the idea of culture as an antidote to anarchy, the cause of which is the middle class`s worship of private liberty. Rejecting individualist liberalism as a source of Philistinism, Arnold instead looks towards the state as a source of order and authority. While being a universal human ideal, culture for Arnold is also quite specific to a nation. With this complex idea of culture, Arnold tries to cope with his society in the midst of political reform and envision its future.

차미리사는 식민지 시대의 대표적인 여성교육자이자 운동가의 한 사람으로서, 그의 여성교육에 관한 관점과 실행에서 보이는 특성들은 현재의 여성교육의 이념과 교육방향을 모색함에 있어서 중요한 참조점이 될 수 있다. 이 논문은 차미리사의 여성 교육활동을 식민지 근대성이라는 복합적인 국면에 비추어 점검하고 그 현재적 의미를 (탈)근대를 둘러싼 쟁점과 관련하여 모색해보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 차미리사는 이론가가 아니라 활동가로서 실천주의자라고 스스로를 규정하고 있는데, 차미리사의 실천주의가 어떻게 민족주체의식과 결합하여 식민지 교육현실에서 특별한 의미를 획득하는지를 살펴보고자 한다. 무엇보다 그의 실행에서 드러나는 민중성과 독립성에 대한 추구는 그로 하여금 여타의 여성교육자들과는 달리 식민권력에 승복하지 않는 민족주체적 시각을 견지하게 하였다. 근대성의 핵심범주인 민족ㆍ주체ㆍ교양의 문제는 차미리사의 교육이념에서 중심을 이루는 것으로, 차미리사는 이 세계화의 시대에 교육에서의 근대성 문제를 사유하는 한 계기가 되고 있다. In her viewpoints and practices in the education of women, Cha Mirisa, one of the representative female educators in the colonial period, can be a significant reference for the idea and direction of women education in our time. This paper proposes to scrutinize Cha’s activities as a female educator in terms of a conjuncture of colonial modernity and to rethink their present meaning in relation to theoretical issues of (post-) modernity. It also focuses on how her practically-orientated mind, as she called herself, acquired a special significance in the colonial reality of education in conjunction with her consciousness of national subject. Her spirit of subalternity and independence which characterized her practices enabled her to keep some subjective and national perspectives and distinguished her from other prominent womenleaders at the period. As some central categories of modernity such as nation, subject and culture are reflected in her idea of education, Cha’s case can be a good momentum for reconsidering the problem of modernity in terms of education in this so-called “postmodern” globalizing era.

소설에 대한 형식적 접근의 한계 : Digerssions in Tom Jones Tom Jones에서의 digression 문제를 중심으로

윤지관 德成女子大學校 1991 德成女大論文集 Vol.20 No.-

This essay proposes to elucidate the merits of the characteristics like digressions which are found in many 18th century novels. This elucidation will include a critique, in terms of theory and practical criticism, of formalist approaches. The latter, usually combined with modernism, tend to regard the above characteristics as a mere formal looseness which is related with the undeveloped state of the novel as a genre in the 18th century. Particularly, the works of Henry Fielding, with frequent digressions, have been disregarded by formalist critics. But digressions in Tom Jones, one of the major works by Fielding, are not dispensible additions to but integral parts of the whole structure of the novel, contributing to its achievements as a realistic perception and critique of its contemporary society.
