  • 본 고는 한국에서 SF가 장르적으로 어떠한 의미를 지니고 있는지에 대해 밝히고자 하는 목적을 가지고 있다. 이제까지 한국에서 SF가 가지고 있었던 특징에 대한 연구는 주로 SF가 가지고 있는 특징적인 요소들에 대한 의미를 밝히거나 작품에 대한 특징들을 지엽적으로 리뷰하는 형식이 주를 이루었다. 하지만 이러한 방법론은 장르로서의 특징을 가지고 있는 SF 텍스트들에 대한 정체성을 간과하고 기존의 방법론을 통해 분석했다는 한계가 있다. SF라는 장르 텍스트의 가치를 명확하게 규정하기 위해서는 장르의 관습과 코드에 대한 이해가 선결되어야 하기 때문이다. 그러기 때문에 본 고는 우선 한국의 SF가 어떤 역사적 맥락을 가지고 들어와서 한국 사회에 수용됐으며, 그 안에서 어떤 의미와 특징들을 가지고 창작되고 독자들과 관계를 맺었는지에 대해 개괄적으로 다루고자 한다. 이를 통해 그동안 학술담론에서 본격적으로 다루지 않았던 대중 서사 및 장르서사로서의 SF에 대해 본격적으로 조망하고, 21세기를 지나 과학적 상상력이 중요해진 시대에 각광을 받으면서 사회적으로 재조명 되기 시작한 SF가 가지고 있는 현재와 미래의 가능성에 대해 실질적으로 재고해 보고자 한다. 본 고는 한국의 SF 텍스트들이 학술담론 내에서 의미작용을 하는데 기본이 되는 배경을 위한 것이다. 이 작업을 통해 그동안 문학의 영역에서도, 그리고 문화현상의 영역에서도 제대로 다루어지지 않았던 수많은 한국 SF는 이후로 학술담론 내에서 유의미한 가치들을 평가받고 이후로 다양한 연구를 통해 재조명될 것이다. 그리고 이러한 작업을 통해 결과적으로 21세기 이후에 다양하게 변주되어 나타나고 있는 한국 서사 영역의 확장과 담론의 발달에도 도움이 될 수 있을 것이라 기대한다.

  • This paper looks into the ideological discourse embedded in D. H. Lawrence's Sons and Lovers. Sons and Lovers is an autobiographical novel which necessarily carries the author's own experiences. For this reason, it reflects the social and historical background upon which the narrative is displayed. Sons and Lovers is full of the historical characteristics of the late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century England. This essay closely reads the class struggles of the time in Sons and Lovers. In most of Lawrence's novels, the class struggles appear in the form of the marriage of two people from different classes. In Sons and Lovers, the hegemonic conflicts between Walter Morel and Gertrude Morel clearly show the class struggles of the time. Also, this paper disentangles the complicated stories of William and Paul and shows the general tragedy of English young men of the time. In the end, it will show that Sons and Lovers is a fully loaded ideological discourse.

  • This study seeks to examine how the West, particularly United States (US), influences the narratives about terrorism, radicalism, and combating violent extremism (CVE) in Muslim majority nations such as Malaysia. We contend that some local institutions and researchers in Malaysia may have assumed the Faustian bargain by agreeing with the Western narrative that Islam's teachings promote violence and extremism in order to meet the demands of survival, whether it be funding for everyday operations or meeting the demands of universities or research institutions to sustain themselves and meet their performance indicators. We conducted a systematic literature review (SLR) from 2001 to 2021 and used Foucauldian Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to understand the role of the US in purposefully supporting workshops and research activities of particular institutions with the intent to influence national discourse on securitization and prospective policy implications. More importantly, we wish to alert Malaysian policymakers to pay particular attention and scrutinize ongoing programs such as the "Building Community Resilience" as these may inadvertently foster Islamophobia.

  • This study explored the background of contemporary furniture design called New Design furniture, which newly expresses the aesthetics of communication in the postmodern era. Qualitative conceptual analysis as the principle methodology was used to explore the background of the decorative and meaningful contemporary furniture in postmodernism. Thereby, the postmodern concepts of Charles Jencks, Robert Venturi, and Michael Graves were analyzed in terms of their postmodern architecture and furniture. As initiatives of postmodern architecture and furniture, Jencks, Venturi, and Graves explored the pluralism and eclecticism, the decoration, the semantics, and the materials reestablished from the traditions of craft. As a result, their furniture was expressed by various wood and color; the furniture was beautiful, decorative, pluralistic, and eclectic for communicating symbol, metaphor, narrative, and/or humor with people; the furniture has influenced the communicative elements on the contemporary furniture design called New Design furniture design, which shows the blurring of fine arts and craft distinctions.

  • Applying discourse analysis of Russia's narrative on humanitarian aid and its perception by the Western collective identity at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, this study identifies several challenges that constructivism poses to the current understanding of public diplomacy (PD). In contrast to the mainstream positivist tendency to evaluate the effectiveness of PD through models, this article expands the PD narrative by inquiring about the role of power, intersubjective knowledge, and collective identities in public diplomacy. In particular, it examines the PD questions often ignored by researchers regarding how collective identities can exercise discursive power to interpret incoming narratives, which challenge domestic intersubjective knowledge. It also argues that, because the Russian political elite failed to ensure a coherent story and provide informational support for its humanitarian aid, the Western intersubjective knowledge on Russia negatively contributed to the perception of PD narratives. Thus, the article underscores the importance for PD practitioners to understand how the socially constructed nature of knowledge can improve or harm PD strategies.

History, Trauma, and Motherhood in a Korean Adoptee Narrative: Marie Myung-Ok Lee's Somebody's Daughter

  • Korean adoptee narratives have proliferated over the last ten years as adopted Koreans have begun to represent their own experiences of violent dislocation, displacement and loss in various forms of literary and artistic works, including poems, autobiographical works, novels, documentaries and films. These narratives by Korean adoptees have intervened in the current diaspora discourse to question further the traditional categories of race, ethnicity, culture and nation by representing the unique experiences of the forced and involuntary migration of adopted Koreans. For a long time, the adoption discourse has been mostly constructed from the perspectives of adoptive parents. Therefore the voice of adoptees as well as that of the birth mothers have not been properly heard or represented in adoption discourse. According to Hosu Kim, the U. S. adoption discourse, feeling pressured to deal with the stigma of the commodification of children, changed from viewing the adoptees as children who had been rescued from poverty and abandonment to considering them as a gift from the birth mothers. With the emergence of the gift rhetoric in transnational adoption, the birth mothers erased from adoption discourse have begun to be acknowledged as one of the central characters in the adoption triad. If Korean adoptees are the "the ghostly children of Korean history," the birth mothers are their "ghostly doubles" who "bear the mark of a repressed national trauma." Somebody's Daughter represents the female experiences of becoming an adopted child and of being a birth mother. In particular, the novel makes a birth mother, the forgotten presence in adoptee narratives, into a central figure in the triangular relationship created by international adoption. The novel historicizes the experiences of a Korean adoptee growing up in America as well as those of a mother who had suffered silently from feelings of unbearable loss, guilt, grief and from unforgettable memories. In addition, narrating the birth mother's story is a way to give humanity back to these forgotten women in Korean adoption history. Revisiting the site of loss both for a mother and a daughter through the novel is an act of collective mourning. The narratives about and by Korean adoptees force Korean intellectuals to reflect seriously upon Korean society and its underlying ideology which prevents a woman from mothering her own baby, and to take an ethical and political stand on this current social and political issue.

  • 2000년에 크루첸과 스토머에 의해 제안된 '인류세' 개념은 다수 학문분과에 큰 반향을 일으키고 있다. 21세기 인류(생명)가 대면하고 있는 생태-존재론적 비상상태에 대한 가장 강력한 문제제기인 인류세 담론에 대한 사회이론의 응답의 한 시도로서, 이 연구는 다음의 문제들을 다루고자 한다. 첫째, 인류세 담론의 핵심의제를 인간 행위능력의 행성적 신장과 임박한 파국이라는 관점에서 분석한다. 둘째, 인류세 담론을 들뢰즈와 가타리적 의미의 어셈블리지(문제-어셈블리지)로 이해하기를 제안한다. 셋째, 해밀턴과 차크라바티의 테제들을 분석함으로써, 인류세가 인문, 사회과학에 가져온 충격을 진단한다. 넷째, 발터 벤야민의 '역사의 천사' 이미지를 분석하고, 파국에 내포된 변형적 생성의 가능성을 감수능력, 혹은 페이션시(patiency) 개념을 중심으로 진단한다. 다섯째, 재귀적/성찰적 파국주의 개념을 제시하고, 파국에 대한 새로운 관점을 제안한다.

초서의 이야기하기 -바흐친의 개념을 통해 본 「서생의 이야기」 (Chaucer's Storytelling: The Clerk's Tale in Terms of Bakhtin's Concept)

  • M. M. Bakhtin's dialogic concept of multi-voiced discourse allows us to open up the text of The Clerk's Tale and to account for its radical heterogeneity. Once we recognize the multi-voiced character of The Clerk's Tale, then what was heretofore regarded as discontinuous or ignored can be seen as the clash of several different world-views. Such a conceptual framework gives an added depth and scope to such thematic subjects as sovereignty, the status of women, and rhetorical style. There are three different and antagonistic voices involved in the tale's narration. These voices project different viewpoints or world-views, and they consequently engage each other in a polemic debate. Their relationship with each other is discontinuous and dialectical rather than continuous and harmonious. The first voice is the Petrarchan voice of moral allegory, which is the voice of tradition, authority, and high seriousness. This voice of moral allegory regards the story of Griselda as an exemplum of spiritual constancy and virtuous suffering. The second voice is the Clerkly voice of pathos based on human experience and feeling. This voice is defined by the Clerk's asides and apostrophes interspersed in the narrative proper, which function to engage the Petrarchan voice in a polemical debate. The third voice is the voice of parody, nominally identified with Chaucer the poet, which is located in the second ending, including Envoy. Whereas the other two voices are earnest and serious, the voice of parody is irrelevant, playful and antagonistic to both the Petrarchan voice of moral allegory and the Clerkly voice of secular humility.

정평면적 카메라 앵글이 갖는 우연성에 관한 연구 (A Study on Aleatorism of Frontal-Flat Camera Angle)

  • 본고는 영화에서 정평면적 앵글의 특성이 내포하는 효과에 관한 연구이다. 이러한 제한적 카메라 앵글은 수용자로 하여금 무언지 모를 긴장감을 갖게 하는데, 본고는 그 긴장감이 우연성에서 기인하고 있다고 본다. 본고는 하나의 서사물에서 그 우연성이 어떤 가치 면으로 어떻게 작용하여 어떤 효과를 갖는지에 대한 담론적 고찰이다. 러시아 형식주의자들은 내러티브를 완전히 배제함으로써 영화 자체의 미학적 가치에 접근하자는 주장을 해 왔는데, 이는 감각적인 각성이 지나친 감정이입을 막고 반성적 사유를 하게 한다는 브레히트의 소격화의 실천이라고 할 수 있다. 하지만 영화에서 시각적인 각성은 내용과의 관련에 따라서 때로는 반성적 사유보다는 더 깊은 관조로의 침잠을 유도하기도 한다. 본고는 정평면적 앵글이 쓰인 영화의 쇼트들 속에서 우연성의 가치를 조형적으로, 내용적으로 분석함으로써 이에 대한 사례를 찾아보고자 한다. 이를 위해 본고는 우연성에 대한 좀 더 세밀한 정의를 제시한다. 왜냐하면 회화, 사진 같은 정지영상에서 언급되어 왔던 우연성과 서사극에서 말하는 우연성이 성질을 달리 하기 때문이다. 그것은 형식상의 우연과 내용상의 우연으로 분류되어 고려되어질 것이다. 그리고 사실상 영화에서 '정평면적 앵글'의 조형적 범주가 무척 애매하므로 가능한 한 몇 개의 제한을 둠으로써 그 범주를 최대한 구체화시키고자 한다. 사례분석은 형식과 내용 면을 구분하여 담론적으로 서술하고자 한다. 결론적으로, 영화의 정평면적 앵글은 일차적으로 시각적 각성에 의한 주목성의 효과를 갖기는 한다. 하지만 감각적 각성이 항상 서사적 가치의 약화를 가져오는 것은 아니다. 전체 내용에 대한 사건의 인과성에 따라 정평면적 앵글이 갖는 우연성은 각성이 아닌 몰입의 가치에 봉사할 수도 있다.
