『어린이』잡지 속 애화 연구

Abstract

This thesis closely analyzed 12 pathetic stories published in Eorini. This paper was intended to determine what inherent feature these texts had which spanned a wide range of genres from coverage materials to creative works.BR The first feature of the pathetic story is sorrowfulness. The sorrowfulness of the pathetic story derives from the character’s situation. The characters undergo the tragic incidents or are faced with the situation they cannot bear. These situations or incidents proceed in a painful direction and are finalized with tears.BR The second feature of the pathetic story is the reality. The pathetic story uses the device of the reality in the text for readers to feel as if the incident took place really. The narrator intervenes to emphasize the incident took place really and the place where the incident took place is described concretely as if that place is really somewhere or the name of the place is revealed clearly. This story also embodies the reality issue or social issue general people encounter in the daily life.BR The third feature of the pathetic story is the fictiveness. The pathetic story does not necessarily embody the things that took place actually. A lot of pathetic stories are the fictional creations and let readers think that story is a true story by means of the device of reality. Lots of writings published as the pathetic stories are included in the boy novel to be discussed because of this fictiveness.BR This study that determined the features of pathetic story will be a foundation of the work that analyzes the pathetic story in the period context in the future.
