Abstract

This study designed and implemented a self-exploration writing instruction model for college students using Bachelard's ‘Jonah Complex’ and examined the perceptions of the mother's womb space in students' writings and its educational effects. This study included a total of 89 students from S University's required liberal arts course “Critical Reading and Writing” opened in the first and second semesters of 2023, and a total of four writing classes were conducted during the second to third weeks of each semester. As a result of the study, the mother's womb spaces of the students were divided into 'inside the house' and 'outside the house' around 'house'. 'Inside the house' were classified into residential space and object space, and 'outside the house' were classified into natural space, learning space, religious space, cultural space, and moving space. Students were searching for their the mother's womb spaces, finding their presence and enhancing their understanding. This study is meaningful in that it provided an opportunity for college students to strengthen their understanding and recognize the importance and value of the mother's womb space.
