Re-reading "Heoseongjeon"

&nbsp;&nbsp;The idea of Silhak inspired the practicality of learning with the technique of modern science at the time of dissatisfaction and critical awareness with regards to the incompetent ruling class. It was especially Yeonam who accepted Ch&quot;ing culture in order to develop the commerce and industry. He insisted on the invention of equipment and product distribution in orde to eradicate the poverty caused by the contempt of commerce and industry. He also criticized the corrupt, extravagant and Neo-confucian authority of the ruling class. "Heoseongjeon" by Yeonam is about mercantilism , Sunbi(classical scholar) spirit of self reflection and hypocrite. He severly criticized the old confucian tradition, evil customs and the hypocritical confucianists who indulged in academic discussion.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;"Heoseong&quot;s Wife" explains the motives of creative writing. The observer&quot;s point of view backgrounds the story of Heoseong&quot;s original text and foregrounds the new world. It is about the journal of Heoseong&quot;s wife and also the story of Heoseong from her point of view. The female life which is isolated and unimportant appears with her voice. In the later half of the book, it is used as the function to criticize the sacrifice of the female life. She establishes her subjectivity throughout her own self discovery of self worth. She deviates from the passive world in which she lives as the other. To pursue the fact that the female is not an alienated object but the person at the center of life. It is portrayed that the female feature and experience must be considered as the valuable entity.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;"The Time Heoseong Is Taught" seriously shows the reality of the real life through the discussion of education from the point of view of reception-aesthetics. It breaks the traditional custom with defamilarization, awakens the consciousness and opens the closed minded, through which the text can be read in a new and different way. The characters appear as the reader empathizes with the characters in the book. The reader also recognizes the many ways the text can be read.
