이청준 소설에 나타난 낙원의식과 로컬리티

A Study on Paradise-cognition and Locality in Lee Cheong-Jun' novels -Focused on 「I-eo-do(이어도)」, 『Yours' Paradise( 당신들의 천국)』and 『An Island Swallowed Myths(신화를 삼킨 섬)』

Lee Cheong-Jun shows various characteristics of locality surrounding paradise-cognition and the aspects of change in cognition as an author through 「I-eo-do(이어도)」, 『Yours' Paradise( 당신들의 천국)』and 『An Island Swallowed Myths(신화를 삼킨 섬)』. 「I-eo-do」 displays differentiation by spontaneous paradaise-cognition and the process of being otherized and otherizing. 『Yours' Paradise』 focuses on the reason why paradise which is not spontaneous, but generated by other existence is not able to coexist with the external forces. Concealment of identity, control of symbols and allegorical way of reading cause identification between each local of the land and the island, and extinction of objet a.『An Island Swallowed Myths』 even more focuses on characteristics of objet a which is relative and generated by other existence, giving up researching paradise-cognition Incomprehensible objet a of the island means the phenomenon itself where intentional consequence by state power, violence and oppositional bisection exist together. Moreover, people from the outside and readers possess the will to remember and embody the trace of a group victimization which was experienced by their own locals by learning the process of the island remembering the trace of its own Each local is connected by emotional and mental bonds among the communities bound together by a common destiny, which remember the experience of each. Lee Cheong-Jun' s local and locality are the space as ex post facto product which is rediscovered and valued by questioning to state power and cognizing about violence.
