본고에서는 박계형의 소설에 대한 좀 더 다양한 학적 관심이 촉발되길 기대하며, 작가와 작품을 연대기적으로 훑어보면서 박계형 소설의 핵심적 요소를 '낭만성'으로 포착하였다. 이때의 낭만성은 서정성, 감상성, 정신성, 비현실성, 이상주의적 성질이다. 취향으로 발견된 낭만주의적 세계 이해를 바탕으로 소설의 핵심 제재는 사랑이며, 사랑하는 관계에서 발생하는 즐거움, 환희, 기쁨의 측면보다는 이별, 아픔, 외로움의 측면에 집중하면서 슬픔의 감정을 주조한다. 비애의 정조를 바탕으로 소설의 결말은 실패, 죽음, 배신으로 종결되기에 비극적 낭만성을 구현한다. 등단 후 결혼하기 이전까지 박계형의 소설은 시적 감수성을 바탕으로 아름다운 사랑에 대한 강렬한 동경을 드러내는 연애소설이다. 목가주의적 세계와 자연에 대한 동경은 낭만주의적 세계관을 드러내고, 결국 그렇지 못한 환경 속에서 절망하고 갈망하며, 사랑의 진정성과 도덕성을 찾아가고자 한다. 주부가 된 박계형은 '센티멘탈'이 아니라 '높은 차원에서의 낭만'을 구현시켜 독자들에게 '향수' 같은 것에 젖어볼 수 있는 작품을 쓰고 싶다고 피력한다. 이후의 작품에서는 육적인 관계를 사랑의 실패로, 영적인 관계를 사랑의 결실로 다루면서 사랑의 고도한 정신성, 이상주의적 동경, 종교성을 드러낸다. 박계형은 20여 년의 절필 이후 새 작품을 출간하면서 이전 작품에 대한 부끄러움을 고백한다. 그리고 '파괴된 인간성 회복'이라는 새로운 화두로 소설 집필의 의욕을 드러낸다. 하지만 2000년대 발표한 두 소설에서 '인간성'에 대한 탐색은 소설의 말미에 다소 급조된 경향이 보인다. 소설은 이전의 베스트셀러 소설처럼 서정성과 감상성을 미감할 수 있는 회상적 구조의 연애서사를 전면화하기에 높은 가독률을 갖는다. 하지만 인간의 순수한 본성에 대한 갈구, 죄와 용서의 문제가 서사 내부에서 인물의 치열한 내적 고민과 행동의 결과물이기 보다는 처해진 현실적 패배로 인해 삶의 방편으로서 구하게 된 차선책이며 이 또한 소설의 말미에서 종교성으로 급전된 양상을 보인다. 그러므로 피상적 의미의 낭만성을 획득한다.

The categories of national health problems may be mainly divided into health promotion, problems of diseases, and population-economic problems which are indirectly related to health. Of them, the problems of diseases will be exclusively dealt with this speech. Rurality and Disease Problems There are many differences between rural and urban areas. In general, indicators of rurality are small size of towns, dispersion of the population, remoteness from urban centers, inadequacy of public transportation, poor communication, inadequate sanitation, poor housing, poverty, little education lack of health personnels and facilities, and in-accessibility to health services. The influence of such conditions creates, directly or indirectly, many problems of diseases in the rural areas. Those art the occurrence of preventable diseases, deterioration and prolongation of illness due to loss of chance to get early treatment, decreased or prolonged labour force loss, unnecessary death, doubling of medical cost, and economic loss. Some Considerations of Innovative Approach The followings art some considerations of innovative approaches to the problems of diseases in the rural Korea. 1. It would be essential goal of the innovative approaches that the damage and economic loss due to diseases will be maintained to minimum level by minimizing the absolute amount of the diseases, and by moderating the fee for medical cares. The goal of the minimization of the disease amount may be achieved by preventive services and early treatment, and the goal of moderating the medical fee may be achieved by lowering the prime cost and by adjusting the medical fees to reasonable level. 2. Community health service or community medicine will be adopted as a innovative means to disease problems. In this case, a community is defined as an unit area where supply and utilization of primary service activities can be accomplished within a day. The essential nature o the community health service should be such activities as health promotion, preventive measures, medical care, and rehabilitation performing efficiently through the organized efforts of the residents in a community. Each service activity should cover all members of the residents in a community in its plan and performance. The cooperation of the community peoples in one of the essential elements for success of the service program, The motivations of their cooperative mood may be activated through several ways: when the participation of the residents in service program of especially the direct participation of organized cooperation of the area leaders art achieved through a means of health education: when the residents get actual experience of having received the benefit of good quality services; and when the health personnels being armed with an idealism that they art working in the areas to help health problems of the residents, maintain good human relationships with them. For the success of a community health service program, a personnel who is in charge of leadership and has an able, a sincere and a steady characters seems to be required in a community. The government should lead and support the community health service programs of the nation under the basis of results appeared in the demonstrative programs so as to be carried out the programs efficiently. Moss of the health problems may be treated properly in the community levels through suitable community health service programs but there might be some problems which art beyond their abilities to be dealt with. To solve such problems each community health service program should be under the referral systems which are connected with health centers, hospitals, and so forth. 3. An approach should be intensively groped to have a physician in each community. The shortage of physicians in rural areas is world-wide problem and so is the Korean situation. In the past the government has initiated a system of area-limited physician, coercion, and a small scale of scholarship program with unsatisfactory results. But there might be ways of achieving the goal by intervice, broadened, and continuous approaches. There will be several ways of approach to motivate the physicians to be settled in a rural community. They are, for examples, to expos the students to the community health service programs during training, to be run community health service programs by every health or medical schools and other main medical facilities, communication activities and advertisement, desire of community peoples to invite a physician, scholarship program, payment of satisfactory level, fulfilment of military obligation in case of a future draft, economic growth and development of rural communities, sufficiency of health and medical facilities, provision of proper medical care system, coercion, and so forth. And, hopefully, more useful reference data on the motivations may be available when a survey be conducted to the physicians who are presently engaging in the rural community levels. 4. In communities where the availability of a physician is difficult, a trial to use physician extenders, under certain conditions, may be considered. The reason is that it would be beneficial for the health of the residents to give them the remedies of primary medical care through the extenders rather than to leave their medical problems out of management. The followings are the conditions to be considered when the physician extenders are used: their positions will be prescribed as a temporary one instead of permanent one so as to allow easy replacement of the position with a physician applicant; the extender will be under periodic direction and supervision of a physician, and also referral channel will be provided: legal constraints will be placed upon the extenders primary care practice, and the physician extenders will used only under the public medical care system. 5. For the balanced health care delivery, a greater investment to the rural areas is needed to compensate weak points of a rurality. The characteristics of a rurality has been already mentioned. The objective of balanced service for rural communities to level up that of urban areas will be hard to achieve without greater efforts and supports. For example, rural communities need mobile powers more than urban areas, communication network is extremely necessary at health delivery facilities in rural areas as well as the need of urban areas, health and medical facilities in rural areas should be provided more substantially than those of urban areas to minimize, in a sense, the amount of patient consultation and request of laboratory specimens through referral system of which procedures are more troublesome in rural areas, and more intensive control measures against communicable diseases are needed in rural areas where greater numbers of cases are occurred under the poor sanitary conditions.
