한·중·일 ‘自己’ 관련 어휘 비교 연구 ― 트랜스-동아시아 언어 연구의 일례 = A study on ‘自己’-related words in East Asian languages ― An example of trans-East Asian linguistic investigation

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study investigates the similarities and differences of ‘自己’-related words in Korean, Chinese, and Japanese through trans-areal linguistic investigation. As ‘自己’-related words, Korean has caki 自己 and casin 自身; Chinese has 自己; Japanese has 自己, 自ら, 己, 自身, and 自分.
自己 was frequently treated as a reflexive pronoun. However, considering the definition of reflexivization (i.e. the co-referentiality of the agent and the patient), the great majority of ‘自己’ and related words in these three languages cannot be understood as reflexive pronouns. Rather, they can best be treated as generic pronouns.
自己 in modern Chinese developed from 自 plus 己 in Archaic Chinese via disyllabicization in the East Han (25–220 A.D.) time. 自 was originally a reflexive adverb and 己 was a generic pronoun. 自己 in modern Chinese performs both the function of 自 and 己 in Archaic Chinese. Additionally, it is used in the form [Noun+自己], which is a new function that was not descended from Archaic Chinese.
自己 and 自身 in Korean and Japanese show similarities in their usages. 自己 is frequently used in a compound word, such as cakimancok (self-satisfaction), 自己流 (one’s way), whereas 自身 is used in the form [Noun+自身 ](e.g. 總理自身 ‘the minister himself’).
As ‘自己’-related words, Japanese has 自己, 自ら, 己, 自身, and 自分. They show a complementary distribution in terms of their usages: 自己 and 己 are used as pronouns; 自ら is used as an emphatic reflexive adverb meaning ‘by oneself ’; 自身 is used as an emphatic reflexive adjective in the form [Noun+自身 ]; ‘自分 ’ is used as a pronoun and an emphatic reflexive adverb.
The occurrences of ‘自己’ and related words in Japanese display clear linguistic strata. During the Nara-Heian and the Edo era, 自己 -type words (including 自己, 自ら, 己) occupied the great majority. During the Meiji era, the number of occurrences of 自分 increased drastically (33.34%), and it occupied by far the great majority since the Taisho-Showa era (65.19%). Meanwhile, the portion of 自身 increased steadily.
This paper showed that Korean, Chinese, and Japanese do not have a discrete form as a reflexive pronoun via trans-East Asian linguistic studies. Rather, they use generic pronouns when they need to deliver reflexive meaning. Also, there are similarities and differences in terms of the syntactic behavior regarding 自己 and related words in these three languages.
