‘신시론’동인의 역할과 위치 연구
권경아

The ‘Sinshiron’ coterie was formed to go beyond the achievements and limits of Korean modernist poetry of the 1930s and sought a new world of poetry in response to the post-liberation changing environment. They published their first poetry magazine 『Sinshiron』in 1948 and their second coterie magazine 『A New City and the Chorus of Citizens』 in 1949. However, the 『Sinshiron』 has not been discovered until recently, and thus the previous studies on 『Sinshiron』 have mainly relied on the latter magazi

1920년대 한국 모더니즘 시의 전개양상 연구
권경아

본고에서는 1920년대 모더니즘의 특징이 잘 드러나고 있는 이장희, 정지용, 임화의 시를 통해 1920년대 모더니즘 시의 전개 양상을 살펴보며 1920년대의 모더니즘 미학이 어떠한 양상으로 드러나는지 고찰하였다. 이장희, 정지용, 임화의 시들에 대해 구체적인 텍스트 분석을 통해 특징들을 찾아내고 이 특징들이 그들의 시적 인식, 근대성과 어떻게 관련되어 있는 지를 종합적으로 검토하였다. 본 연구는 1920년대의 한국 모더니즘 시를 대상으로 근대성이 어떻게 인식되고 있으며 이들의 시가 1920년대라는 한국 사회에 나타나는 근대의 모순과 위기 상황을 어떻게 미적으로 대응하고 있는지를 살펴보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구에서는 역사 철학적 근대성 또는 자본주의적 근대성이라는 긍정적 측면과 이러한 근대성에 대해 저항하는 부정적 측면에서의 근대성을 포괄하는 양면적 근대성의 개념을 기반으로 1920년대 시에 나타나는 근대성의 인식을 고찰하였다. 1920년대의 시에 대한 연구는 주로 개별 작품들

한국근현대미술사학

Chun Kyung-ja is a painter who is well-known for her images of women in Korea’s modern art scene. She persistently produced images of women, and more than half of her works contain female images. In particular, images of women surrounded by flowers and butterflies can be considered Chun’s signature paintings. Chun’s images of women show a persistent identity, a sensitive exploration of women, and love for the objects she admired. In this research, I mainly focus on analyzing images of women, whi

김경린 시에 나타나는 현대성 연구
권경아

The modernist movements of the 1950s in Korea are discussed with focus on the activities of Hubangi coterie members, especially Kim Kyung-rin. Kim Kyung-rin provided an important feature in Korean modernism of the 1950s by continuing to experiment with the modernist style while joining coterie groups from Shin Siron (New Poetics) to Hubangi. His discussion about modernity starts from the inflow of modern civilization represented by machines and materials and from the resulting fear and despair.
