古典小說에 나타난 家族意識 = Family Conciousness in Old Korean Novel

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The ultimate purpose of this thesis is to clarify the social function of literary works through the analysis of some old Korean novels.
The range of works that would be analyze was limited to works related with family problems.
More concretly speeking, here was analyzed the conflict of family members in some works.
The selected works were Sahssi-Namjung-Gi, Jung-Suhjungl-Jun, Janghwa-Hongyunjun, and Suhgyung-Nangja-Jun. The results of analysis are follows;
Ⅰ. The first two works that have horizontal conflict reflect the home tragic affairs in that times (Ih-Dynasty). Therefore, they do not show the defect of family system that brought about those affairs. Because the fixed idea of their authers, namely Confucian moral sense, paralyzed their intelligence and restricted their imaginations.
Ⅱ. The last two works that have vertical one reflect the real state of that society.
Janghwa-Hongyun-Jun exposed the father's(the master of a family) incompetency as well as the stepmother's evil intention at home in aristocratic circles. The father's incompetency means a frailty of peoples in high class, and that is a negative element ought to be eliminate.
Suhgyung-Nangja-Jun reflects a conflict between the versical order and horizontal one in the family system. Here, the former is challenged by the latter.
The vertical order is the relation between father and his son, or resemble one, in their home.
And horizontal one the intetion of combination between hausbend and his wife.
In other words, parental authority and dignity is collaps on account of ostinacy in front of their son and daughter-in-law.
This is invisible and important change of family conciousness in history.
