G. Bachelard의 “일상적 공간”의 교육적 의미: 이미지와 상상력을 중심으로

Educational significance of G. Bachelard s “Everyday space”: Focusing on images and imagination

The everyday space is composed in the rhythm of daily life repeated. So it is easy to be valued as a space of trivial and insignificant boredom. However, everyday space is where we have all of our experiences and traces of life. It is a place where we can give an opportunity to know our existence and to think about the meaning of real life. Bachelard thought of everyday space as a vibrant dynamic image space and a space of infinite imagination. For him the everyday space is a space of intimity that contains the archetype of his life and a space of remembrance that contains the aesthetic experience of admiration. It is also a meaningful space that opens the opportunity to sense the inner resonance through natural, archetype traces that are not destroyed. The thought of everyday space makes attention to the inherent value, human value, not the external value of space. In today s situation, in which the external value is emphasized by the domination of the visualized image, Bachelard s thought of everyday space can provide an opportunity to examine the mental image and the internal image. It also suggests a need to reconsider the importance of everyday space.
