The Political Vision of Food and the Body in Black Boy

( Kim¸ Soyoun ) 동국대학교 영어권문화연구소 2017 영어권문화연구 Vol.10 No.2

This article investigates the ways in which Richard Wright’s Black Boy associates the problems of food and body with African Americans’ underprivileged lives. Wright describes how the social system entraps African Americans in poverty and low social status; poverty causes malnutrition, and physical/intellectual malnutrition makes it impossible for African Americans to escape miserable lives. The first part of this article focuses on the double function of hunger; while Wright suffers from constant hunger as a “black boy,” driven by his spiritual hunger he gains flesh and mobility by stealing food and knowledge. Leaving the South for the North, he gains opportunity to achieve a political voice, even though the North is far from a true home for him. The second part of the article explores how the problems of consumption and digestion are associated not only with Wright’s self-development but also with the vision of a sound America; just as Wright comes to better understand both himself and the outside world by consuming and digesting a variety of knowledge, he suggests that American civilization must learn to embrace diverse beings and ideas to become a sound body.

투어리스트 혹은 억류자 : 『올리버 트위스트』 속 도시 공간과 외국성

김소연 ( Kim¸ So-youn ) 동국대학교 영어권문화연구소 2020 영어권문화연구 Vol.13 No.1

In Charles Dickens’s Oliver Twist (1837), London space illuminates Victorian discourse over foreignness, as well as portraying the experience of being lost outside home and/or home country. While Oliver Twist, the main character of the novel, follows the tradition of the protagonist who recovers his original identity and social status through his quest for a home, the spaces that he visits and his relationships with those spaces reflect the dilemma of Victorian Britain, which rose to the surface in the late nineteenth century. On the one hand, Oliver safely returns to the middle-class home that he is connected to as he remains intact even though he visits the underworld of London. It helps to reinforce Victorian ideology that glorifies the middle-class male subject’s ability to maintain his identity while being far away from home, which is presented as the tourist figure. On the other hand, Oliver often becomes like a captive who is exposed to the danger of losing ties with his home and/or home country. By portraying prisons, trap-like places, and characters who are placed near borderline, Oliver Twist anticipates the late-nineteenth-century anxiety about the Other’s intruding Britain from the outside world.

비자살적 자해 청소년과의 상담에서 상담자 체험에 관한 내러티브 탐구

박소연 ( Park¸ So Youn ),유미숙 ( Yoo¸ Mee Sook ) 한국놀이치료학회 2021 한국놀이치료학회지(놀이치료연구) Vol.24 No.3

본 연구는 상담자가 비자살적 자해 청소년을 상담하며 시간의 흐름에 따라 어떠한 경험을 하였고 그 의미를 탐구하고자 내러티브 탐구방법으로 수행하였다. 상담경력이 6년 이상이며 비자살적 자해 청소년을 3명 이상 상담한 경험이 있는 상담자 2명이 연구에 참여하였고 2020년 1월~2월 3회의 심층면담을 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 참여자들의 경험의 의미는 ‘자해가 아닌 존재에 집중하는 상담자가 되어가다’, ‘자기 돌봄의 윤리를 실천하다’, ‘현상 안에서 청소년을 바라보다’, ‘한계를 수용하는 상담자가 되어가다’이다. 참여자들은 비자살적 자해 청소년을 처음 만났을 때 불안감을 느꼈지만 개인의 감정을 성찰하며 청소년에게 집중하였다. 그 과정에서 먼저 청소년과 편안하고 안전한 관계를 형성한 후에 정서조절하고 개인능력을 발휘하도록 도와야함을 발견하였다. 참여자들은 비자살적 자해 청소년을 상담하며 괴로울 때 자기 돌봄을 실천하였고, 배우고 훈련하는 상담자 책무성을 실천하였다. 청소년이 환경을 보다 안전하게 경험하도록 도와야함을 알아가고 있었고 내담자의 취약성이 크고 자해를 오랜 기간 반복한 경우 상담만으로 자해 중단을 돕기 어렵다는 것을 경험하며 상담의 한계를 인식하고 수용하였다. 이는 상담자 역할과 힘을 확장하는 원동력 되었다. 본 연구는 상담자로 성장하는 과정을 확인하였고 상담 교육과 훈련에 정보를 제공하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다. The purpose of this study was to improve our understanding of about the counselors’ experiences with those adolescents who engage in non-suicidal self-injury(nssi) and to derive whatever lessons or greater meaning we can from their experiences. The lived experiences of counselors were explored through in-depth interviews following a narrative inquiry methodology. Two counselors with more than 7 years experience and who have worked with more than 3 nssi clients were chosen as participants. Their experiences were interpreted and categorized into four main topics: ‘becoming a counselor who focuses on human beings’, ‘becoming a counselor who practices the ethics of self-care’, ‘understanding their adolescent clients within the context of this phenomenon’, and ‘becoming a counselor who accepts the limitations of counseling’. The significance of this study is that it has broadened our understanding of the counselors’ experiences with adolescents who engage in nssi and the difficulties they may face, as well as helping to confirm the process at work in the counselors’ self-development.

Soyoun Bae-Suh 환태평양유아교육연구학회 2012 Asia-Pacific journal of research in early childhoo Vol.6 No.1

The purpose of this study was to investigate parental perceptions on parent involvement in Korea. Twohundred- thirty-two parents participated in this study by completing a questionnaire developed by the researcher. Majority of parents perceived that parent involvement is significant and necessary although they are not able to participate in all events of parent involvement due to reasons such as time conflict and be baby sitters. In addition, parents wanted for teachers to frequently inform their child’s progress, to contact them through various channels, and to respect their opinions in education for their child. Strategies to compromise the reasons hindering parental participation in parent involvement as well as suggestions to meet parental demands were discussed. Suggestions for further studies were also proposed.

The Son Who Does Not Return: Displacement and Alternative Nationality in Kipling’s Kim

( Soyoun Kim ) 한국영어영문학회 2020 영어 영문학 Vol.66 No.2

As an Indian-born writer, Rudyard Kipling is characterized by his consistent interest in the problem of belonging. In the novel Kim (1901) he deals with the issue of feeling displaced and struggling to find a true home within imperial geography. Since Kim, the juvenile protagonist of the novel, is outside the familial and social structure as an orphan, he is able to travel across India while transgressing both social and geographical boundaries. Through the journey, he comes to invent his own identity in colonial India instead of passing through a rite of passage to acquire British masculinity. Unlike the Tibetan lama, who feels displaced because of his desire to escape from the men’s world, Kim begins perceiving himself as a part of the imperial structure. His getting into the imperial world does not cause him to become a white master, though. Comparing and contrasting him with other characters who occupy divided cultural location like him helps us to locate him in the empire. Just as in the case of Lispeth, the hill-woman who attempts to seduce him using her familiarity with the English culture, Englishness remains fundamentally foreign to him till the end of the novel. His alternative identity both empowers and disempowers him; while it allows him to feel at home in India, it also makes him physically and socially less mobile than English men. Either way, his character produces an unsettling effect through anticipating white men who would not return to the father’s home country.

A Glimpse of the Truth

Soyoun Kim 19세기영어권문학회 2017 19세기 영어권 문학 Vol.21 No.3

This article reads Henry James’s What Maisie Knew as novel of manners that reflects how people’s relationships and perceptions of others are affected by manners. Although many critics have investigated the problem of “knowledge” in their readings of the novel, “ignorance” has not received much attention. What Maisie Knew illustrates how both mystery/distance and intimacy/closeness produce charm; manners allow one to wield social power over other people through mystery and distance, but at the same time, knowing each other’s unique manners makes people look irresistibly charming to each other. As Roland Barthes explains in Camera Lucida, punctum makes its possessor unique, and similarly, charm marks its possessor a distinct being in the novel. Yet just as Barthes cannot find his mother’s essence in innumerable pieces of pictures after her death, James’s characters fail to see other characters fully and coherently just by recognizing the vividness of their charm. James suggests that manners make individuals continue on their way to knowledge by giving and withholding it and that one should keep wondering about others even though they can only catch a glimpse of truth.

목적: 본 연구는 음양오행의 원리를 기반으로 개발한 복합 약용 식물 추출물(mixed herbal extract, MHE) 피부 세포에서 항노화 효 능을 가지고 있는지를 확인하고 실제 화장품에 적용하여 in vivo 평가를 수행함으로써 피부 항노화 화장품 성분으로서 이용 가치를 확인하기 위해 진행되었다. 방법: 본 연구에서는 피부 노화 방지 효과가 있는 성분 개발을 위하여 연교, 질려자, 가시오가피, 옥죽, 지실 및 인삼을 포함하는 초음파 추출을 사용하여 MHE을 제조하였다. 이 복합 추출물을 이용해 섬유아세포에서 콜라겐 생성량 및 콜라겐 합성 및 분해와 관련된 MMP1과 TIMP1의 발현에 미치는 효과를 확인하였다. 또한 1% MHE를 함유한 화장품을 사용하여 피부 수분, 탄력, 결, 주름에 대한 임상 시험을 수행하였다. 결과: MHE는 pro-collagen type I 합성과 TIMP1 mRNA 발현을 촉진 할 뿐 아니라 MMP1 mRNA 및 단백질의 발현을 억제하는 효과를 가짐을 확인하였다. 또한, 1% MHE를 함유 한 화장품을 피부에 도포한 결과, 4주 후 피부 보습, 탄력, 결, 눈가가 개선되었다. 결론: MHE가 피부 세포에서 콜라겐 합성을 촉진하고 MMP1유전자 발현을 억제하는 효과를 가지고 있음을 확인하였으며, MHE를 적용한 화장품의 임상 시험에서 피부 개선 효과 확인하였다. 이를 통 해 MHE가 피부 항노화 화장품 성분으로서 가치가 있음을 확인하였다 Purpose: This study was conducted to confirm the applicability of a mixed herbal extract (MHE) as an anti-aging cosmetic ingredient by investigating its skin anti-aging activities in vitro and in vivo . Methods: In this study, we prepared MHE using an ultrasonic extraction containing Forsythiae fructus, Tribuli fructus, Solomon’s seal, Siberian ginseng, Ponciri fructus and Ginseng. We investigated the anti-aging effect of the MHE for skin in dermal fibroblasts. The anti-aging activity was determined by the type I collagen synthesis levels. Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP1 ) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP1 ) mRNA levels were measured by qRT-PCR. MMP1 protein levels were evaluated by blotting analysis. Clinical tests of skin moisture, elasticity, texture, and wrinkles were performed using cosmetics containing 1% MHE. Results: The MHE induced the upregulation of pro-collagen type I synthesis and TIMP1 mRNA expression. The MHE led to the downregulation of MMP1 mRNA levels and protein levels. Furthermore, after skin application of cosmetics containing 1% MHE, skin hydration, elasticity, texture, and crow’s feet were improved 4 weeks after the treatment. Conclusion: MHE has an anti-aging effect by promoting collagen synthesis and suppressing MMP1 gene expression in vitro, and it has a skin improvement effect in vivo . Therefore, the MHE was shown to have value as a functional cosmetic ingredient.
