Military style is not limited to a single period but represents various image communications related to items, synthetic images and different periodical culture backgrounds. The purpose of this study is to define the communicational function of the military style beginning from the 1st world war up to the modern days, and furthermore explain the characteristics and contents of military styles in different periods by studying the nowadays various symbols of the military style in denotative and connotative aspects. The research method is documentary studies through the literature and academic paper, and examined masters' and doctors' thesis, domestic and overseas books and fashion magazines, photographs and materials collected from the internet. As a result, first, the military style is a significant fashion code in understanding modern fashion by serving as a strong communication function representing people’s ritual through various image items called the 'military look'. Second, the meaning of the image communication through military look changed throughout the different periods. During the 1st and 2nd World war the military look supported Fascism by serving as a media representing extreme patriotism and at the same time social images like functionalism, women liberation, regulation and saving. During the cold war period it was used by young progressives like hippies and punks to send an opposing message towards war and commercialism. Since then up to the 80s it was a medium representing the ‘new role of women’, who possess same social rights and power as the men. However in the 90s the military style had to go through a paradigm transition period. Since this period it got affected by the post modernism and designers, consumers alike adopted military style to create unique beauty It can also be said that it began to be used as a pure fashion code representing intertextuality. It was rather expressed as a metonymy than a metaphor and combined with elegance and feminine factor, which contrasts to the original military concept, it now represents totally new hybrids such as difference, dissemination and varieties.

The 1990s have seen the publication of many books devoted to Language and Ideology (cf. Joseph & Taylor 1990. for one of the early ones) even though the term 'ideology' itself has remained ill-defined (Woolard 1998). The focus of attention has usually been placed on the particular use of language and often for some kind of 'political' ends, not on linguistic or other scholarship which might have been driven by some sort of ideology, i.e., a bundle of assumptions which themselves were taken as given. At least since Edward Said's 1978 book Orientalism, it has been clear to everyone that scholars construct their conceptualization of things in line with their understanding of the cultural, social, and political world in which they live, and that this often unreflected 'pre-understanding' effects their view of cultures that are different from theirs and more often than not geographically and temporally distant from theirs. This recognition has had a sobering effect no doubt, and Said's book has long since become 'mainstream.' Much more disturbing to the scholarly profession has been the publication of Martin Bernal's Black Athena in 1987, since it went much further, going beyond accusations of colonialism and cultural bias, in suggesting that the Western representation of Classical Greece over the past two hundred years was false and that what had been accepted until now about occidental antiquity must now be seen derived from African-Asiatic cultures of the Near East, notably that of the Ancient Egyptians, and that no other than Socrates should be seen as black man. While we may understand the intellectual climate in the United States that led academics to present 'myth as history' (Lefkowitz 1996), it is obvious that lines of regular scholarly principles of investigation have been crossed (cf Lefkowitz & Rogers 1996). The present paper investigates what may be seen as the ideological underpinnings of such work. After reviewing some recent scholarship in the area of linguistic historiography that have shown that academic work has never been 'value-neutral' (as may have been assumed or has been claimed by some practitioners), it is argued that in effect one must be aware of what Clemens Knobloch has recently termed Resonanzbedarf, i.e., the desire, whether conscious or not, of scholars-and probably scientists, too-to have their work recognized by the educated public and that, in so doing, their discourses tend to pick up on contemporary popular notions. These efforts may be harmless if everyone was to recognize these allusions and adoption of certain lexical. items(buzz words) as props or what Germans call Versatzstiicke, but history tells us that this has not always been the case. Still, as Hutton (1999) has shown, not all scholarship during the Third Reich for example can simply be dismissed as worthless because it was conducted in under a prevailing political ideology. Indeed, in seemingly innocent times, linguists can be shown to frame their argument in a way that makes them appear so utterly superior to their predecessors (cf. Lawson 2001). Upon closer inspection, those discourses turn out to be much like those of scholars in nationalistic environments that have tended to select their 'facts' to prove a particular hypothesis (cf., e.g., Koerner 2001). The article argues for scholars to take a more active role in exploding myths, scientifically unfounded claims, and ideologically driven distortions, especially those that are socially and politically harmful.

This study is about Yoo Young-kuk's early works which show constructivism, especially focus on his debut painting, for the 7th Dokuritsu Bijutsu Kyokai(獨立美術協會, the Independent Fine Arts Association) in Tokyo in 1937. The work was painted 2 years after he had started his study in Japan in 1935. It was the first painting that applied Constructivism. played an important role for Constructivism to be a leading art in his abstraction. After this picture, Yoo was soon devoted to the principles of Constructivism-- Faktura(material), Tektonika (tectonics), Tekhnika(technique), space, construction-- in his painterly reliefs. This article examined why Yoo concentrated on Constructivism for , what the characteristics were, and what influences were on other works from 1935 to 1949. In addition, I investigated in which period was painted and how Constructivism was spread in 1930s and early 1940s in chapter 2. I scrutinized Rhapsody in chapter 3. When Yoo created Japan was under the Fifteen Years War(1931-1945), and a major discourse was the Japanese Spirit at that time. It was connected with construction of an ideal nation which the Japanese ultra-national fascism pursued. This ideological pursuit was intended to unite the Japanese people for total war system and to restore a national dignity which had been fallen down due to Manchurian Incident(1931). Thus, on the hand, Kokusai Bunka Shinkokai(國際文化振興, The Society for International Cultural Relations) and the Nippon Kosaku Bunka Renmei(日本工作文化連盟, Japanese Werkbund) were supported financially by the Japanese government. On the other hand, the government enacted regulations to opposing parties which would distract Japanese people's unification. As for the Japanese art world, the merge of art groups was carried out through remodeling of Teikoku Bijutsuin(帝國美術院, The Imperial Fine Arts Academy) in 1935. This brought out continuous dispute and disorder. Young artists who felt difficulty of entering an entry of Imperial Fine Arts Exhibition repeatedly grouped and disbanded for small art groups to build their standing, which they pursued Surrealism and Abstract art. Among them Constructivism was considered as the latest trend and was popular in craft, design, architecture as well as fine arts. In the year before he painted , Avant-garde theatres including Constructivism theatre were introduced in a feature article of September, 1936 in Atelier, which was dealing with mainly avant-garde arts. Books related with Constructivism were translated into Japanese, and Gestaltung Education had become active since the publication of A Compendium of Gestaltung Education("構成敎育大系"(1934)), Salvador Dali(1904-1989) was also introduced, so Surrealism was drawn more attention by young artists. reflected popular trends. Yoo analyzed the Japanese avant-gardists' archaic taste in the Independent Art Association that he submitted his painting to. And then he entitled 'Rhapsody' which derives from Ancient Greek's epic poetry and deliberately set up images in a scene. In chapter 3, I examined a theme which was planned carefully by sorting favorite images from the Japanese Surrealism. was a result that Yoo Young-kuk observed objectively the phenomenon that young artists dreamt of Utopia or longed for Nostalgia passively and lethargically under wars. And then he otherized himself from that circumstance. First of all, for he used the typical icons of Japanese Surrealism such as the horizon, flowing clouds, and vast plain that were considered stereotypes of Arcadia. He, however distinguished himself form those Japanese Surrealists. He made his own vision about Utopia by referring Lyubov Popova(1889-1924)'s stage design. His objective point of view was expressed by positive and dynamic images of structure and human's actions. Constructivism which was attempted in had an effect on other early constructive works, and the principles of Constructivism were sought hard in reliefs, paintings, and photos.

From the late 1920s to the 1930s, Korea's fine art community focused on traditional viewpoints as their main topic. The traditional viewpoints were discussed mainly by Korean students studying in Japan, especially oil painters. Such discussions on tradition can be divided into two separate halves, namely the pre- and post-Sino-Japanese War (1937) periods. Before the war, the modernists among Korea's fine art community tried to gain a fuller understanding of contemporary Western modern art, namely, expressionism, futurism, surrealism, and so forth, on the basis of Orientalism, and borrow from these schools' in order to create their own works. Furthermore, proponents of Joseon's avant-garde fine arts and artists of the pro-fine art school triggered debate on the traditional viewpoints. After the Sino-Japanese War, these artists continued to embrace Western modern art on the basis of Orientalism. However, since Western modern fine art was regressing into Oriental fine art during this period, Korean artists did not need to research Western modern fine art, but sought to study Joseon's classics and create Joseon's own avant- garde fine art in a movement led by the Munjang group. This research reviews the traditional view espoused by the Munjang group, which represented the avant-garde fine art movement of the post-war period. Advocating Joseon's own current of avant-garde fine art through the Munjang literary magazine, Gil Jin - seop, Kim Yong-jun and others accepted the Japanese fine art community's methodology for the restoration of classicism, but refused Orientalism as an ideology, and attempted to renew their perception of Joseon tradition. The advocation of the restoration of classicism by Gil Jin-seop and Kim Yong-jun appears to be similar to that of the Yasuda Yojuro-style restoration of classicism. However, Gil Jin-seop and Kim Yong-jun did not seek their sources of classicism from the Three-Kingdoms and Unified Silla periods, which Japan had promoted as a symbol of unity among the Joseon people; instead they sought classicism from the Joseon fine art which the Japanese had criticized as a hotbed of decadence. It was the Joseon period that the Munjang group chose as classicism when Japan was upholding Fascism as a contemporary extremism, and when Hangeul (Korean writing system) was banned from schools. The group highly evaluated literature written in the style of women, especially women's writings on the royal court, as represented by Hanjungnok (A Story of Sorrowful Days). In the area of fine art, the group renewed the evaluation of not only literary paintings, but also of the authentic landscape paintings refused by, and the values of the Chusa school criticized as decadent by, the colonial bureaucratic artists, there by making great progress in promoting the traditional viewpoint. Kim Yong-jun embraced a painting philosophy based on the painting techniques of Sasaeng (sketching), because he paid keen attention to the tradition of literary paintings, authentic landscape paintings and genre paintings. The literary painting theory of the 20th century, which was highly developed, could naturally shed both the colonial historical viewpoint which regarded Joseon fine art as heteronomical, and the traditional viewpoint which regarded Joseon fine art as decadent. As such, the Munjang group was able to embrace the Joseon period as the source of classicism amid the prevalent colonial historical viewpoint, presumably as it had accumulated first-hand experience in appreciating curios of paintings and calligraphic works, instead of taking a logical approach. Kim Yong-jun, in his fine art theory, defined artistic forms as the expression of mind, and noted that such an artistic mind could be attained by the appreciation of nature and life. This is because, for the Munjang group, the experience of appreciating nature and life begins with the appreciation of curios of paintings and calligraphic works. Furthermore, for the members of the Munjang group, who were purists who valued artistic style, the concept of individuality presumably was an engine that protected them from falling into the then totalitarian world view represented by the Nishita philosophy. Such a 20th century literary painting theory espoused by the Munjang group concurred with the contemporary traditional viewpoint spearheaded by Oh Se-chang in the 1910s. This theory had a great influence on South and North Korea's fine art theories and circles through the Fine Art College of Seoul National University and Pyongyang Fine Art School in the wake of Korea's liberation. In this sense, the significance of the theory should be re-evaluated.

20세기의 서양사상 가운데 하나인 실존주의는 1 2차 세계대전과 대공황, 파시즘의 확산, 스페인내란전쟁 등의 비극적 사건을 겪으며 이성과 과학발달이 인간을 순식간에 피폐와 죽음으로 몰고 가는 결과를 낳게 되자 인간을 위해 인간성을 회복시키는 시대정신이다. 앙드레 말로는 문학작품 속에서 등장인물들의 운명으로써 삶과 죽음의 문제를 제기해 인간이 어떻게 살아가며 어떻게 죽음을 맞이하는가에 대한 실존적 고뇌를 기록한다. 말로의 등장인물들에게 있어 인간의 정체성과 관련된 존재의 부조리는 실존적 자기 성찰을 의미한다. 작가는 생존의 위협이 직접적으로 다가오는 전쟁과 테러, 혁명, 모험 속에서 그들이 죽음에 직면해 운명에 대한 실존적 의식과 행위를 숙고한다. 말로는 자신의 모든 문학 작품들 속에서 죽음의 문제를 밀도 있게 다루고 있으며 이는 철학적 사고의 중심 문제로 부각되고 있다. 말로는 "정복자"(Les $Conqu{\acute{e}}rants$, 1928), "왕도의 길"(La Voie Royale, 1930), "인간조건"(La Condition Humaine, 1933), "희망"(L'Espoir, 1937)의 장편소설에서 비극적 상황에 놓인 등장인물들을 통해 삶의 의미는 무엇인가라는 철학적 명제를 제시하며, 그들이 운명을 스스로 지배하려는 실존의식과 존재의미를 추구한다. 말로는 이러한 비극적 세계관 속에서 인간성과 삶의 긍정, 죽음을 부정하는 등장인물들의 의식과 행동을 나타낸다. 죽음의 고뇌는 예측할 수 없는 본능적인 욕구와 도박, 아편 등의 도피적 행동을 유발하지만, 그것은 절망에서 벗어나려는 처절한 몸부림이며 자신의 존재는 누구인가라는 질문과 연계된 것이다. 말로의 실존주의적 사고로서 항상 부각되는 점은 죽음에 대한 운명의식으로 인해 결국엔 인간이 얼마나 고독한 존재인가라는 숙명적 인간조건의 비극적 형이상학이다. 하지만 소설에서 등장인물들은 모험과 혁명, 전쟁 속에서 동료들과 함께 행동하며 타인을 위하여 개인주의를 초월하는 동지애적인 연대의식은 인간존중이 된다. 인간애와 인간성 회복이라는 공동의 목표를 두고 자발적으로 구성된 인간들 사이의 동지애는 대의를 위해 목숨을 바칠 수 있는 인간의 위대함이 내재되어 있기 때문이다. 따라서 말로의 동지애는 휴머니즘의 세계를 창조할 수 있는 존재의식의 승리를 포함한다.

경제력집중(經濟力集中)은 경제적(經濟的) 자원(資源)과 수단(手段)의 상당부분이 소수의 경독주체(經瀆主體)에 집중되어 이들이 자원배분(資源配分)의 흐름에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있는 상태를 말한다. 그러므로 경제력집중(經濟力集中)은 본질상 자유시장기구(自由市場機構)의 생리와는 부합하지 않지만 자본주의(資本主義)의 역사로 볼 때 그것이 바로 자유경쟁(自由競爭)의 소산이라는 측면도 있다는 점이 문제가 된다. 구미(歐美)와 일본(日本) 등에 있어서 자본주의체제(資本主義體制)의 진화궤적(進化軌跡)은 이 문제가 어떻게 전개되는가에 따라 결정되어 왔다. 우리나라에서의 경제역집중(經濟力集中)은 다수의 독(獨) 과점적(寡占的) 대기업(大企業)들이 소유관계(所有關係)로 결합되어 있는 기업집단(企業集團) 즉 소위 재벌(財閥)의 문제로 집약될 수 있다. 우리나라의 기업집단(企業集團)의 성장은 시장기구(市場機構)의 작동결과에 기인한 면도 있지만 고도경제성장기(高度經濟成長期)의 정부정책(政府政策)에 의하여 촉진된 것도 부인할 수 없다. 기업집단(企業集團)에 의한 경제력집중(經濟力集中)은 과거 우리나라의 정치(政治) 경제(經濟) 사회(社會)가 거쳐온 진화과정(進化過程)을 집약적으로 나타내는 것 이다. 그러므로 우리나라에서 민주주의(民主主義)와 자본주의(資本主義)의 이념(理念)과 질서(秩序)에 대한 국민적(國民的) 합의(合意)를 모색하려는 현시점에서 경제력집중(經濟力集中)을 객관적으로 인식하여 효율(效率)과 형평(衡平)을 조화하는 적절한 대응방향을 모색 하는 것은 매우 긴요한 과제이다.
