계급의식과 민족의식, 갈등과 화해의 도정 - 북한에서의 1920년대 후반기부터 1940년대 전반기의 문학사 서술을 중심으로

초록

The descriptions of North Korean history of literature have been changing with the times. North Korean history of literature has also formed diverse ‘histories of literature.’ Major texts of North Korean history of literature are Joseon History of Literature (the second volume) published by the office of literature in Language and Literature Research Institute in 1959; Joseon History of Literature (1926~1945) by Kim Ha-myeong, Ryu Man, Choi Tak-ho, Kim Yeong-pil published in 1981; An Overview of Joseon Literature II by Park Jong-won, Ryu Man published in 1986; and Joseon History of Literature 9 by Ryu Man in 1995. The historical transition of descriptions of North Korean history of literature can be understood as the process of conflicting and reconciling of class consciousness and national consciousness. Particularly, Joseon History of Literature 9 was written under the influence of Kim Jeong-il’s Juche Literary Theory 1992. The characteristics of Joseon History of Literature 9, are that an active evaluation on the KAPF literature in the Japanese colonial period was made and the existing descriptions of history of literature focusing on characters and literary works changed to the descriptions of history of literature focusing on themes. It also raised the objectivity of the descriptions of history of literature by concretely describing the end of Japanese colonization era. It is possible to make rich interpretation of history of literature when the common points besides the common point of‘national history of nature’ in South and North Korean history of literature are revealed. ‘North Korean history of literature’ needs to be viewed as diverse ‘histories of literature’rather than a single history. In this sense, Joseon History of Literature 9 can be a record of North Korea’s ‘interpretative viewpoint’ on ‘historical facts.’
