This thesis examined interpreting methodology of Do Won Lew Seung Kug(1923~2011) is based on the principle of Juhng-yaug. His lifelong academic aim was searching for the theory that enables global community to co-exist peacefully through humanitarianism that leads to reconciliation and mutual benefits. The research of the history of Korean thoughts provided him with the clue for his theory. According to Do Won, Korean thoughts pursue the Juhng-yaug's value of 'Yin and Yang accordance' rather than the I-Ching's value of 'suppress Yin and elevate Yang'. He furthermore asserts the concept of the middle (中), which harmonizes the two extremes by human beings as main agents, has been consistently observed from the action of divination during the ancient period through Juhng-yaug in the late 19th century. Do Won identifies 'human maturity that integrates the extremely conflicting insistences and values and seeks to be reconciled' as the basic character of Korean thoughts. He explains 'Hongikingan[弘益人間, becoming beneficial to the human world] is the idea that embraces the conflicting values symbolized by heaven and the earth. He also illuminates that Choe Chi Won(崔致遠)'s created Poongliu Do by integrating heterogeneity among Confucianism, Buddhim, and Daoism and it was attainable through the various works of mature human beings. Both Toe Gye' s philosophy of Ingeuk(人極, the Great Ultimate of Person) and the concept of Innaecheon(人乃天, Human Being right is Heaven) of Donghak are excellent examples of Humanitarianism that sublate two extremes. In Korea, the prototype of this thought has penetrated its entire history in the various circumstances of the period. The grand finale is Juhng-yaug of which the pursued values are 'Yin and Yang accordance' and mature humanitarianism revealed by the thoughts of the Person of the Central Ultimate (皇極人,至人) and Central Ultimate (皇極). Therefore, Humanitarianism in Korean thoughts clearly makes its appearance by the time of Juhng-yaug and it functions as a keyword to illuminate the entire history of Korean thoughts in reverse.

The traffic sign on the road should be easy to distinguishable even from far, and should be recognized in a short time. As traffic sign is a very important object which provides important information for the drivers to enhance safety, it has to attract human's attention among any other objects on the road. This paper proposes a new method of detecting the area of traffic sign, which uses attention module on the assumption that we attention our gaze on the traffic sign at first among other objects when we drive a car. In this paper, we analyze the previous studies of psycophysical and physiological results to get what kind of features are used in the process of human's object recognition, especially color processing, and with these results we detected the area of traffic sign. Various kinds of traffic sign images were tested, and the results showed good quality(average 97.8% success).

자연재해연구는 인간.자연환경 관계를 연구하는 학문이다. 금세기초 환경결정론, 환경가능주의, 그리고 인지에 의한 행동과학주의로 연구 Paradigm이 변화.발전되어 오며서 지리학에서도 이러한 이론적 방법론의 바탕위에 인간-자연환경 관계를 설명하려고 노력했다. 1920년대 초 Barrow가 인간생태학 개념을 발표, 1950, 1960년대 이에 영향받은 White, Kate와 Burton 같은 미국의 자연재해지리학자들은 미국에서 홍수재해문제를 인간적응, 특히 "인식"의 역할에 중점을 두어 재해지역에서 자원이용과 이의 관리문제를 연구하였다. 1970년대 들어오면서 재해의 양상, 적응방법등이 연구되고, 또한 적응의 여러 비교연구가 있었으며, 사회성과 관련 사회학적 연구 접근과 다양한 레벨의 케이스 Study 또한 이루어졌다. 오늘날의 자연재해연구는 일반재해연구로 발전하여 핵반응, 각종산업.교통재해, 화학물질 및 환경오염문제, 각종 소음공해, 폭발물 사고 등 참으로 여러 종류의 사회문제가 재해연구의 대상이 되었고, 근래에는 약물중독, 성폭행, 그리고 복잡한 현대사회에서 제기되는 정신질환까지 일종의 재해문제로 다루어 지리학내에서 연구되고 있다. 이와같이 연구의 많은 변환.발전과 함께 처음 Academic한 연구로 시작된 재해문제 연구가 이에 관심을 같는 여러분야 즉, 경제.사회, 심리학자, 토지이용개발자, 보험, 은행, 부동산업자 재해와 관련있는 민간단체, 정부기관, 정책실행기관등이 참여하는 공동연구가 활발히 행하여지고 있다. 최근에는 "세계 자연재해 감소 10개년 계획"이라는 Program을 미국이 주동이 되어 국제적인 기구로 만들어 관심있는 여러국가의 과학자, 재해연구가, Engineer, 정부관계자들이 참여 서로 정보와 지식의 교환, 세계의 개발.재개발에 대한 계획, 재해감소의 교육훈련등 다채로운 Project을 가지고 세계 자연재해 감소를 위하여 공동연구의 노력을 하려는 움직임이다. 세계의 권위있는 재해통계에 의하면 한국이 매년 자연재해로 인하여 100만명당 1,000명이 희생되는 나라로 방글라대시, 이란, 중남미와 페루, 과태말라, 동남아시아의 뉴기니와 나란히 중진개발도상국으로 몇안되는 나라의 하나로 들어있는 것을 볼 때 유감이 아닐수 없다. 우리나라는 하루빨리 이러한 자연재해로부터 아까운 생명과 재산을 잃어버리고 있는 고통과 문제를 해결하려는 민간.정부차원에서 관심을 기울이고 우선 기본적인 연구의 기틀을 마련하는 제도적 장치와 분위기가 아쉽다고 않을 수 없다.와 분위기가 아쉽다고 않을 수 없다.

50년대에 급속한 경제성장을 이룩한 서독은 수출증대를 위하여 대량생산제품의 개발을 통한 국제경쟁력 강화를 꾀하였다. 여기에서 디자인이 제품의 질적 요소로서 그리고 판매증진의 요소로서 이해됨으로써, 제품개발을 위한 디자인의 개발이 강하게 요구되고, 또한 디자이너 양성을 위한 대학의 필요성이 대두되었다. 이러한 사회적 요구에 힘입어, 울름 조형대학은 '53년 8월 그 문을 열게 되었다. 설립초기에서부터 이 대학이 가장 중요하게 내세운 것은 바우하우스의 계승이었다. 그러나 초대 학장 막스 빌의 현대예술 중심적 디자인 관과 바우하우스 교수법을 그대로 답습하는 기초교육과정은 - 과학적으로 객관화된 디자인을“정치적”으로 정립하고자 - 바우하우스 이념을 계승하여 새로운 사회건설을 지향하는 젊은 강사들과 대립되는 것이었다. '55년 토마스 말도나도가 학장직을 대행하면서부터, 과학과목들의 도입과 더불어 바우하우스 계승의 길이 새롭게 모색되기 시작하였다. 그러나 디자인의 과학화 과정에서 과학기술을 맹신적으로 따르는 기술교조주의라는 문제에 즉면 하게 되고, 디자인에서의 과학기술을 사회적으로 재정립하기 위한 방향이 모색된다. 이로부터 인본주의적 인공환경의 건설을 지향하는 사회적 디자인, 즉“환경디자인 Umweltgestaltung”개념이 개발되고, 이의 과학적 방법론이 연구되었다. 결국,“환경디자인”은 울름 조형대학이 궁극적으로 추구한 불변의 이상향이 되었고, 이의 실천을 위한 기본 방법은“유닛시스템디자인Unit System Design(Baukasten-Systemdesign)”이었다. 이와 같이 울름 조형대학은 바우하우스의 계승이라는 대 명제 하에 인본 적으로 객관화된 과학적 디자인 개발에 일관된 노력을 기울였다. 그러나 여기에서 나타난 - 후기산업사회의 인간 중심적 발전을 목적으로 새로이 정립된 - 인본주의라는“정치성”으로 인하여, 결국 '68년 9월 30일 그 문을 닫게 되었다.

In Medieval and Christian history, disputation between Augustine and Pelagius originated from different perspectives regarding the free-will of humans and the grace of God. This debate has continued throughout the Middle-Ages and the Reformation to date. In this regard, the purpose of this article is to investigate the implication of opposition and disputation between Augustine and Pelagius on today's society. Overemphasis on human capacity and free-will leads to humanism, while the arguments supporting the grace of God can encourage evasion of the ethical obligations of humans. Augustine and Pelagius had opposing views on this subject. Pelagius emerged in the Roman Empire, emphasizing the ethical responsibility of humans with free-will. On the other hand, Augustine argued that human nature and free-will had been damaged. With a pessimistic outlook on human capacity, he emphasized the grace of God. Shocked by the self-indulgence and ethical negligence of the Church of Rome which was the center of Christian nations at that time, Pelagius strongly urged Christians of the Roman Church to take moral responsibility. However, the theology of Augustine justified the status quo of the Roman Church while Pelagius focused on the necessity of an ethical life of humans based on free-will. Viewing Pelagius' strict moralism as a humanist view that emphasizes human capacity and action, Augustine showed strong opposition to such a view and instead emphasized God's grace. Pelagius was condemned as a heretic as his belief in free-will did not follow Augustine's Doctrine of Grace. However, Pelagianism penetrated Christian history and still poses a threat to Christianity to date. Societal corruption and depravity is still prevalent in today's society as it was in the time of Pelagius. South Korea for instance is exposed to serious moral corruption and a lack of social responsibility as shown in the sinking of the MV Sewol in April 2014. For those reasons, Christian society emphasizes Christian ethics and requires an honest leader who will set an example of Christian life. In this light, I want to examine the implications of disputation between Augustine and Pelagius on today's society.

This paper aims to illuminate how the Naturalists' concern on geography and geography education, mainly in Comenius, Rousseau, Pestalozzi who have played key roles in the development of Naturalism, has developed and how the Naturalism has influenced on the development of geography and geography education. Starting from sensual realism, the Naturalism suggested the educational principle and methods adjusting to the Nature well as exercised great influence on the formation of modem school education toward popular common education. The geography took the firm position as subject in the curriculum of the Naturalists and achieved the rationale of existence as subject in curriculum with utility to expand human experience, thanks to Naturalists. The Naturalists developed several ideas on geography teaching method such as labouring activity-centered geography teaching based on strengthening sense and experience by 'look-and-see' approach, local geography-centered geography teaching with stress the local area as the focus of direct experience and living environment, and the real thing-centered geography teaching by fieldwork. Moreover, The Naturalists had an great effect on the geographer, Karl Ritter in terms of methodology of geography.

The aim of this essay was to investigate Marlow's desire for constructing enlightenment subject of knowledge and power sustained by the collusion of imperialism and patriarchy in Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness. Marlow's narrative, based on his journey up the river in Africa to retrieve Kurtz, attempts to conceptualize himself as the subject of the enlightenment reason and rationality. In the novella, collusive network of ideologies of empire and gender contributes to the making of a Western Enlightenment subject. Marlow eulogizes himself for realizing the harsh realities of imperialism, political domination and economic exploitation of the natives in Africa. However, Marlow is a colonial subject who has been ruled by the hierarchical system of thought in the Western logocentrism. He is not aware that his narrative has already been infiltrated by the ideological discourse of the totalitarian enlightenment. His narrative in effect is not a self-congratulatory testimony to truth and realities but a narcissistic and self-defeating document. Marlow unconsciously employs the totalitarian ideologies of empire and gender in order to relegate the African natives to the inhuman existence and to consign women to the sphere of illusion.

This paper starts out with a review of the concepts of naturalism and natural clothes. Based on these concepts, the paper aims to create nature-friendly and high-value modem designs by grafting natural images from butterflies into human bodies. The images of butterflies are combined to show distinguished luxury and diversity with natural materials such as denim. As for the design technology, Adove Illustrator 10, Photoshop 7.0, and Prima Vision Textile Design System are used since they are very popular in the CAD system. The followings are the main findings of our research. Naturalism displays its objectivity based on its inherent interest in human nature and its factual description in scientific approaches with an intention to find a true meaning of human life in nature. Natural clothes can be defined as the clothes of natural silhouette which are made of pure materials in natural colors and dyes from natural motifs such as animals, plants or natural phenomena. We have realized that the visually distinguished looks of butterflies are indeed far more luxurious than those of any other insects and this visual distinction can be utilized to attract the attention from designers. Lastly, it turns out that the digital printing technique can create more variety in colors and design forms than the manual printing, thereby providing designers with more options and practicality.
