시와 산문의 경계에서 얻은 체득적 깨달음의 실현 - 장영수의 시를 중심으로

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine the world of poetry by Jang Young-soo, a poet from Wonju who wrote the Chiak Mountain series of poems. There are two main reasons for paying attention to Jang Young-soo. One is that even though he was born in Wonju, he was omitted from the history of Wonju poetry, and the other is that his works were published in only 6 volumes of poetry published by ‘Moonji Publishing’. He is a poet who sang the local sentiments of Wonju in the central literary world while simultaneously writing and researching. The memories of childhood expressed in Jang Young-su's series of poems, “Chiak Mountain,” are filled with dark, gloomy light. At times, the speaker's wishes are revealed through the heard cries of the vulture and the chickadee, and at other times, it appears as a purified space of new birth as he hears the story of meeting his mother who ran away from home only after 30 years. Afterwards, the concrete object called “Chiak Mountain” changed to “hometown” and became an abstract language. Early on, his poetry attracted the attention of the literary world for its significant punctuation marks. Afterwards, he was unable to satisfactorily demonstrate his will and passion for creation and academics. However, he is a poet who tried to feel the tension as much as possible in the relationship between everyday language and poetic language. Therefore, I turn every moment I realize in my daily life into a work of poetry. In particular, the boundary between poetry and prose feels vague in works with a confessional tone, but his creation continues.
