초록

본 논문은 당대 지리산에 각인된 민족적 신성함이 어떻게 개인적, 사회적 실천과 그것의 역사적 반복을 통해 형성되어 왔는가를 검토한다. 본 연구는 '도피주의' 에 논의의 초점을 두고, 이를 위한 사례 연구로서 산사람의 삶과 부가적으로 청학동의 재발견 과정을 분석한다. 두 '산사람', 허만수와 함태식은 전근대에서 근대사회로 이행하는 과정에서 자연을 심미적 관점과 보호의 시각으로 바라보는 근대적 자연관을 암묵적으로 제시하였다. 그들은 도교적 유토피아를 찾으려는 내면적인 꿈과 근대적이고 민주적인 방식의 자연감상이라는 사회적 실천을 조화시키려고 시도하였다. 궁극적으로, 산사람의 출현과 그들의 실천은 지리산에 대한 전근대적인 지리적 상상-사회(세상)의 바깥에 존재하는 특별한 장소로서의 지리산-의 종말을 의미한다. 그리하여, 근대적 관광지이자 시민적 민족경관으로서의 지리산국립공원은, 사람들의 유토피아에 대한 꿈과, 산의 신성함과 그것이 민중의 삶을 보호할 것이라는 종교적인 믿음이 사라지는 지점에서 구체화되었다.

I examine in this paper how the contemporary sacredness of Mt. Chirisan has been modified through the reworking of the embodied experiences of the mountain. 1 examine the theme of escapism through the cases of mountain men and Chonghakdong. The two mountain men, Huh Man-Soo and Ham Tae-Sik, tacitly suggested a modem aesthetic and environmentalist view of nature by articulating a typical form of appreciating nature in a transition period from pre-modern to modern society. Mountain men mediated their own personal dreams of revitalizing the Taoist utopian place with their social practices of modernizing and democratizing the appreciation of nature. Ultimately, the appearances and practices of mountain men symbolize the end of the pre-modern geographical imagination of the mountain as distinctive plate outside society (real world). Therefore, the vision of modem civic-national landscape, national park, was made concrete at the very site where the people's dreams of utopia, the inherited sacredness of the mountain and people's religious beliefs in its protective power were terminated.
