1930년대 소설 속에 나타난 경성의 도시공간적 특성이 반영된 시민일상연구 - 경성의 중심부의 공간 특성을 인용한 소설 속 공간과 일상을 대상으로

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the relationship between the characteristics of architecture and urban space that formed the urban landscape of the colonial city ‘Gyeongseong’ in the 1930s and 'everyday life' of those living in the city at that time. In colonial period, there was coexistence of ‘non-everyday life’ and ‘everyday life’. Studying everyday life of this period makes it possible to find a "gap in everyday life" that was not known from a macro perspective. In addition, it is meaningful to reconstruct history through everyday life of ordinary people who lived in that age as an individual rather than as a nation. It is difficult to find the scenery and everyday life of the 1930s in current Seoul, where landscapes of various eras are mixed due to the rapid development brought since the early 1900s. For this reason, this study used novels written by the eyes of that era as research data. A total of 75 sentences related to urban spaces of Gyeongseong were extracted from 9 novels published in the 1930s, and these are compared with the urban spatial characteristics of Gyeongseong classified from macro perspective. Although the landscape was formed by the modernisation and urban planning implemented by Japan, ordinary people generally used whole Gyeongseong as their daily space. And the influence of capital on people's everyday life was stronger than the plan for colonial rule. In addition, there were people who lost their way in modernised city and felt the tragedy of the era. Finally, the simultaneous changes and newly introduced cultures led to introduce of a new space, but those who lived at that time were able to see that they were surviving beyond their everyday life as a matter of survival.
