It is well-known that Chinese saw themselves as the centre of the world until the early 20th century. Since the Opium War 1840, however, belong to the 'general world' the past century. The Opium War made China break away from the Sinocentric spirit. This writing(essay) examines movies from China and the World concern the historical event 'the Opium War.' It also discusses desires that are inherent in narration of each movie and how accord with the real world. The movie The Opium War(1997) directed by XieJin is a work that intended: to wash off the memory of history of disgrace and; to successfully put a disparate piece, Hong Kong, of a puzzle named China together. The Japanese movie Wànshìliúfāng(1943)and The Opium War(1943) were also made for the victory of the Pacific War. They were part of project for uniting the domestic Japan and the colonial outlands - Manchuria and Joseon - that reenacted humiliating history of China, which had been the suzerain of the East Asia The Korean movie The Opium War(1964) was not recalled due to the demand for a lesson from China's painful history, but was recreated by imitating Hong Kong, into where capitalism was transplanted through the Opium War before Korea. History is eventually recalled to the present and the histories, that each different present invokes, are recreated in respective fashion. From their plan to wash off the history of disgrace and successfully return Hong Kong to its native country, China, Japan, and Korea portrayed China, once their cultural suzerain, as impotent East Asia. From their proposition that they should resist the present enemy, the West, together, they imitated the west of the East, which lead the way to achieve modernity. Finally, from their ambition to deviate from their status as developing country, they recalled and reorganized the history, the Opium War.

니체 철학이 갖는 가장 강렬한 함의 중의 하나인 현대성의 위기와 그 극복 가능성이라는 주제를 '사랑'이라는 화두를 가지고 재구성해보는 것이 본고의 목적이다. 이성에 대한 육체적 욕망의 발로인 성애(性愛)에서부터 동정심이나 이웃사랑 같은 종교적으로 왜곡된 사랑의 형태를 넘어 가장 먼 것에 대한 사랑과 생명의 적극적인 긍정양식인 운명애에 이르기까지 니체 철학 전반에 걸쳐 산재된 사랑에 대한 진술들을 분석해 본다. 니체에게 사랑은 기본적으로 힘의 확장을 목표로 하는 소유욕으로부터 자라난 충동이다. 그것이 인간을 구성하는 힘에의 의지이므로 사랑의 충동은 생명에 속하는 것이다. 그러나 성 충동을 죄와 결부시킨 기독교를 통해 에로스는 부도덕 해졌다. 니체는 인간의 자연과 실재를 부인하고 거기에 다른 이상을 덧씌우려는 기독교적 사랑을 극복하고 자신을 뛰어넘는 사랑을 배워야 한다고 말한다. 니체 철학에서 그것은 가장 먼 것에 대한 사랑이자 운명애로 불린다.

Melodrama emerged as a form of the moral in the early modern age. As an approach 'the moral' not only means that rewarding virtue and punishing vice, but also refer to a principle of spiritual life and a way of life. -Melodrama theatricalizes a new vision of human life and society through a new type of the virtuous protagonist and sentiment/-ality. -This allows melodrama to be a dominant cultural form in this modern age, beyond the borders of the theater, mass-media, and literature. Virtue and sentiment/-ality are the core elements of melodrama, which differentiate it from tragedy and comedy especially in the structure and effect of the drama. Actually virtue and sentiment/-ality have been a main target of criticism. Virtue has been regarded as a trite quality of the stereotypical protagonist, and sentiment/-ality as a banal emotion which paralyzes an audience's recognition of reality. -However, this thesis regards both virtue and sentiment/-ality as vehicles for showing and sharing the morals of the modern age. First, the virtues of the protagonist included the general and universal ones of the bourgeois -at that times, the bourgeois represented themselves as a human being- such as the responsibility and obedience of a father, a mother, a wife, a husband, a daughter and a son. They also included the professional ethics such as courage, honesty, and justice and so on. The fall or salvation of the protagonist is largely determined by his/her private individual virtue. Second, sentiment/ality is a theatrical device that makes the audience internalize the protagonist's virtue. The protagonist expresses his/her universal virtue sentimentally, and the audience also expresses their virtue by sympathizing with the protagonist's virtue sentimentally. However, the melodramatic protagonist as an individual, is not connected with society, but remains isolated. As a result, s/he has no influence on the society, where s/he can only ends her/his play alone with a happy-ending. S/he is happy alone, or at best happy with his/her own family. On the contrary to this, tragic protagonist usually fixes social disorder through his/her fall. In that sense, we can say that melodrama presents only the half of the human life.

극장 공연에서의 무용 공연은 텍스트 중심으로 진행되어 플롯이 존재하고 캐릭터가 부각된다. 또한 극장 공연에서의 무용 공연은 표현력과 테크닉이 강조되는가 하면 공간에 대한 인식 역시 매우 근대적이며 이분법적인 데카르트적 사고의 전형을 보인다. 미술관이라는 공간 역시 극장 공간과 동일하게 근대적 산물의 공간인 동시에 예술이 도래하는 권위를 부여받았다는 점에서는 많은 유사점을 가지고 있는 공간이다. 미술관은 재현(Representation)에 목적을 두는 것이 아닌 현존(Presence)에 더한 가치를 두고 있다. 이러한 이유로 최근에 들어 빈번하게 소개되는 미술관에서의 작업들은 장소특정적이거나 수행적 개념의 작업들이 주를 이루고 있다. 이제는 미술관도 작품으로 규정된 미학에서 얻을 수 있는 것보다도 지금, 여기에서 발생되는 사건으로의 퍼포먼스에 주목하면서 미술관 스스로의 미학적 생산과 당위성을 보장받고 있는 셈이다.

The aim of this study was to reveal the modern succession and reinterpretation of brand identity through the case of Balenciaga design presented by Demna Gvasalia through a review of the literature, design collection, and design review analysis. The design collection analysis was conducted from 2016 F/W to 2020 F/W, when Demna Gvasalia commenced responsibility for the Balenciaga collection. A total of 12 articles from overseas fashion magazines and newspapers were analyzed. A modern reinterpretation of Demna Gvasalia's Balenciaga design is as follows. First, he introduced luxury mode to reflect a sense of the times and introduced luxury street looks based on street and sports sensibilities, showing various styles without specific concepts. Second, by sharing universal sensibilities based on pragmatism, he proposed an easy-to-wear outfit for daily life to demonstrate the everydayness of fashion. Third, as a new exploration of traditional structural beauty, the design of Cristobal Balenciaga was reinterpreted through the conversion of items, overlapping outfits, and the introduction of high-tech technologies. Fourth, by taking a conceptual approach to fashion, he has renewed the spirit of experimentation and modernity shown by Cristobal Balenciaga. Fifth, with the presentation of a new icon, new styles of sneakers such as Triple S and Speed Runner are presented as new icons. He inherited the original mindset and creative approach of the house's founder, Cristobal Balenciaga, and reinterpreted it from a contemporary street sensibility and pragmatic perspective.

2017년에 시작된 Loewe Craft Prize는 현재 전 세계에서 가장 권위 있는 공예 공모전으로 자리매김 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 럭셔리 브랜드에서 시작된 Loewe Craft Prize가 4년이라는 짧은 시간 동안 모든 공예를 아우르는 최고의 공모전으로 발전한 배경에 주목하였다. 전세계적으로 다양한 공모전이 존재하는 공예에서 장르의 다양성과 재료의 한계가 없는 Loewe Craft Prize가 만들어 내고 있는 공예의 관심도는 어떠한 공모전도 이루어 내지 못한 실적이다. 이는 Loewe Craft Prize가 가지고 있는 공예에 대한 뚜렷한 가치관과 기존의 단일 재료로 구성된 공모전과는 차별화 된 복합 공모전을 형성, 발전시킴으로서 가능한 일이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 결과가 나오게 된 배경인 재료의 융복합, 전통과 현대의 융합, 과학과 공예의 융합을 통한 사례들을 연구하였으며 작가들의 성향과 작품을 통한 현대 공예의 흐름에 대해 알아보았다. 또한 공예 장르의 확장이 가지고 있는 의미가 현대 공예에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the continuous forms of time and space that work as architectural design principles of the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe (Jewish Memorial). Continuity is divided into two, physical and non-physical attributes. The former extends from small installations to furnitures, finishes, spatial composition, and even spatial networks that complete architecture, and the latter is tied to time, from traditional to historical, developmental, commemorative or memorial elements. They are inherent in architecture as continuous forms. The Jewish Memorial is analyzed by the analysing framework of these two items. The analysis of the two layers can be summarized as follows; physical continuity is found in the space networks of the Memorial's inside and outside, the undulating spaces, the finishes, the small furnitures and installations, the entrances of staircases, the expanded underground of the ground order, and non-physical continuity manifests in the topological variation of spatiality, the morphological development of memorial architecture, the connection of semantic sense of space, and the superposition of historicity and modernity. These forms of continuity do not aestheticize the German enormity history, but make the meaning of the Memorial into non-superficial, in-depth architecture as a monument. Thus, the results of this study show that physical and non-physical continuity should be considered as the important design principles of architecture that makes the Memorial architecture possible.

On recognizing the significance of Walter Benjamin's "The Task of a Translator" in recent discourses of postcolonial cultural translation, this essay examines the creative postcolonialist appropriations of Benjamin's theory of translation and their political implications. In an effort to dismantle the imperialist political hierarchy between the West and the non-West, modernity and its "primitive" others, which has been the operative premise of the traditional translation studies and anthropology, newly emergent discourses of cultural translation actively adopts Benjamin's notion of translation that does not prioritize the original text's claim on authenticity. Benjamin theorizes each text-translation as well as the original-as an incomplete representation of the pure language. Eschewing formalistic views propounded by deconstructionist critics like Paul de Man, who tend to regard Benjamin's notion of the untranslatable purely in terms of the failure inherent in the language system per se, such postcolonialist critics as Tejaswini Niranjana, Rey Chow, and Homi Bhabha, each in his/her unique way, recuperate the significatory potential of historicity embedded in Benjamin's text. Their further appropriation of the concept of the "untranslatable" depends on a radically political turn that, instead of focusing on the failure of translation, salvages historical as well as cultural potentiality that lies between disparate cultural entities, signifying differences, or disjunctures, that do not easily render themselves to existing systems of representation. It may therefore be concluded that postcolonial discourses on cultural translation of Niranhana, Chow, and Bhabha, inspired by Benjamin, each translate the latter's theory into highly politicized understandings of translation, and this leads to an extensive rethinking of the act of translation itself to include all forms of cultural exchange and communicative activities between cultures. The disjunctures between these discourses and Benjamin's text, in that sense, enable them to form a sort of theoretical constellation, which aspires to an impossible yet necessary utopian ideal of critical thinking.

본 연구는 전통사회와 현대를 이어주는 제례(祭禮)가 의례(儀禮)의 전승(傳乘)이라는 관점에서 제례진설에 나타난 상징성의 의미를 분석하고자 한다. 전통의례의 삶과 죽음에 대한 유교적 생사관과 사상적 바탕이 되었던 음양오행론, 우주구조의 이해와 사시(四時)의 변화로 나타난다. 제사상의 진설이 조상의 존재를 인정하고 상징체계를 통해 산 자와 죽은 자가 시간과 공간적으로 소통하는 의례적 도구로 이해하였다. 또한 사계절과 하늘·땅·지하의 공간을 제수(祭需)의 선정과 배열을 통해 상징화하고 구체화하였다. 현대 제례진설에서 위치를 결정하는 요인은 대상에 대한 시·공간적 분석을 필요로 한다. 이는 제물이 기능적 역할 뿐만 아니라 제물을 통해 표현하고자 하는 시·공간적 상징성으로 이해되기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 제례진설에 나타난 사상적 배경과 상징체계에 대한 논의를 통해 제례문화의 계승이라는 관점에서 고찰하는데 의의가 있다.

This study was conducted to investigate and analyze food related and space related elements of popular Vietnamese restaurants in Hong Kong to identify restaurant images related to food, to examine how Vietnamese traditions are applied to such restaurants, and ultimately, to get their implications for us. Luxury Vietnamese restaurants in Hong Kong tended to be located in major office buildings and famous shopping malls in the downtown area; therefore, they were highly accessible to foreigners. In addition, most Vietnamese restaurants were quite formal in size or atmosphere. The food-related elements of the luxury restaurants reproduced traditional menus, but the table setting and service generally adopted a formal Western style setting. The presentation of foods was also creative and contemporary, to suit international customers' tastes. Regarding the spatial elements, restaurants serving traditional menus had interiors influenced by the French colonial period, while those serving contemporarily adapted menus had interiors with simple contemporary images emphasized by Vietnamese traditional decorations. These characteristics allowed foreigners from diverse countries to access the restaurants without a sense of rejection. Casual restaurants were primarily exposed to many people on busy roadsides, but they tended to be inferior in terms of size and quality. Apart from size and price level, food-related elements failed to reflect Vietnamese unique traditional characteristics. The outward appearance consisted of basic construction materials (glass, chassis, and bamboo) instead of those representing Vietnamese architecture. Additionally, the interior of the casual restaurants contained traditional elements or objects more frequently than luxury restaurants, but they looked rather disorderly and lacked harmony. Overall, the image of casual restaurants was degraded by the use of cheap and low quality finishing materials and furniture. The results of this study may be useful for organizations promoting the Branding of Korea or businesspeople and designers promoting the globalization of Korean foods.
