Abstract

This study is on the creative method of Printed Ancient Fiction. It analyzes how Printed Ancient Fiction, as ‘storybooks’, had their own territory in modern literature at the time.
 A total of 93 Printed Ancient Fiction were identified from the 1910s to the 1930s. In this paper, it is presented in chronological order.
 Novels do not focus only on stories because they must describe a unified point of view, personal establishment. On the other hand, as a storybook, Printed Ancient Fiction is considered a popular work and pursues the interest that comes from the story itself. In order to understand the characteristics of the Printed Ancient Fiction as a storybook, this paper uses the argument of Walter Benjamin’s 〈The Storyteller〉 to analyze the Printed Ancient Fiction with three characteristics: ‘distant places as well as distant times’, ‘unified world’, and ‘morality’.
