초록

In this paper, we investigate the structure and content of guilt in Jung Yeon Hee's Christian novel. Jung Yeon Hee was considered as a typical Christian female novelist and her work as a novel has a unique purpose of preaching Christian doctrine. For this reason only a few studies and evaluation were made explaining literariness for her novels.
This paper raises the issue in the understanding of this view and tries to explain that God's will contradictorily coexists with human desire in her work by analyzing the structure of guilt. For this research we take notice of nonverbal language such as symptoms underlying behind a logical argument in works. In her novels anxiety, fear, and anger distinctively appear and we explain those aggressive emotions as symptoms of suppressed desires of the ego against an ethical oppression.
Those feelings can be read as the expression of human-ego against ethics made by the transcendent god. Human desire resists god's will because of continued suppression from it. But at the same time human feels guilt and transfers sin to an external target in order to protect himself from guilt, and then attacks and criticizes it. For this reason, aggressive aesthetic emotion, which is the feature of her novels, can be considered symptom that expresses obsessive guilt of the self.
For the above reason we do not agree with the conclusion that Jung Yeon Hee's novels unilaterally convey God's ethics and serve only the purpose of religious propaganda. Rather human desire and divine ethics contradictorily coexist in her novels. As a result we can conclude that there are human reflections and conflicts in her work and literary achievement of Jung Yeon Hee's novel comes from the tension and dynamics between the two.
