초록

The goal of this thesis - limited to volume 10,11 and 12 in part 2 of
ToJi written by Park Gyeongli - is to considerate of recognition
problematics about cultures of Korea and Japan. Not only Toji is a
very long story but also it took long time to write this story.
Furthermore, it has been noticed because of dilemmas of the times and
issues of genres. In other theses which are based on this novel, it is
noticed that volume 1, 2 and 3 are so interested that we can't ease the
tension, but after the volumes the tension gradually decreases. But that
is a wrong thinking resulted from grasping the story when we focus
on the outline. In this thesis 4 volumes which lead last half of the story
are considered to disprove the wrong view.
Part 4 story is developed on the background of the period from
소설 ꡔ토지ꡕ에 나타난 한·일 문화인식의 태도 고찰 333
China-Japan War(1937) to NamGyeong Slaughter(1938). In historic
novels the view of current trends has attracted our interest. But the
things which are mentioned in this thesis are not considered in historic
point of view about current problems. The main goal of it is finding out
the basic reasons which made the situations of the time. The writer
seeks for the reasons in the culture. Her wide cognitions and point of
views about Korea and Japan culture are revealed in the whole Part 4.
In part 4 lots of characters are appeared but the origin of whole story
is integrated to “culture”. If it is read with view of culture, we can
guess on what position she wanted to place the part 4 in the novel. The
writer has her own deep belief about history. She figures out the
history from Guhanmal to Defeat of Japan in the novel. And she tries
to seek for the reasons of the defeat not from weak military force or
changes of world situations but from more basic reasons, “Cultural
Weakness”.
Especially, writting duration of part 4 is longer than any other parts.
It is the proof of her best. In Part 1, 2, 3 she tried to put more precious
meanings into the story over a family’s hardships, successes and love
stories and she gained “cultural point of views” as one of the methods.
What is land? It is not an estate and territory as she said. She said
we associate land with concept of possession. However, when it is
rethought through part 4 it is valid that land is considered as the place
of human standing and origin of life. The Land is the place where
everybody stands beyond history and races. It is the place human
beings have rooted, been born and been grown up from the beginning
of the world. From then, they have sown, born, farmed and lived.
Human beings have learnt surviving methods and passed down them
on the bases of the land. It is the primitive configuration of culture that
is the premise of this thesis.
Island country, Japan has made their own culture and Korea have
done so. The beginning of culture is from an individual but the culture
is what are internalized into a race with time. How could Joseon people
overcome the tough time under Japanse control- expanding of Japanese
nationalism and fortifying of military-in the situation that nobody could
look forward to future? The books asks the readers and the writer
herself “what the power overcoming the tough time is”. It is said that
culture is the answer and the culture is the great sprit.
