  • 세계의 곳곳에서 발생되고 있는 지역적인 분쟁은 새로운 양상으로 확산되고 있다. 민족과 문명, 종교적 이데올로기를 기반으로 한 지역 패권주의적 경향이 갈등의 요인으로 나타나고 있는 것이다. 이는 대물림되는 특성을 가지고 있으며, 문명 간의 충돌로 확산되고 있다. 특히 기독교권과 이슬람권의 대립과 갈등은 국제정치적 양상으로 표면화 되고 있으며, 인류안보에 위협요소로 다가서고 있다. 기독교 정신의 우월성을 주장하는 서구 신진국의 경우 인류의 구원과 세계평화라는 역사적 사명감을 가지고 비민주성, 인권, 여성의 권리, 저개발, 핵문제 등을 기독교의 정신과 연계하면서 후진문명으로 간주하고, 민주주의와 인권문제를 앞세워 서구식 발전모델을 강요하고 있다. 절대 일신교를 믿는 이슬람은 그 신(神)만을 주님으로 정해 '노예'가 되어 섬기겠다는 결의를 품고 있으며, 종교적 정치적 사회적 및 문화적 성격이 깊이 배어 있고, 지리적으로도 서로 밀접하게 인접하고 있어 집중성을 나타내는 정도가 다른 문명권에 비해 높게 나타나고 있다. 비폭력을 주장하는 이슬람의 교리가 '코란'과 '칼'이라는 폭력적 이미지로 알려지게 된 것은 문화 간 충돌에서 나타나는 무력적인 방법 때문이다. 오늘날 세계가 직면하고 있는 문명의 충돌은 종교적 갈등문제에서 비롯되고 있고, 이는 민족 간의 대립과 마찰로 나타난다. 특히, 기독교와 이슬람의 뿌리 깊은 종교적 대립은 아랍과 이스라엘의 생존권 다툼에서 비롯하여 기독교와 이슬람 간의 대립으로 확대되었다. 문명의 요인에 의한 테러의 발생과 확산은 역사적으로 증명되어 왔고, 현재에도 지구 곳곳에서 발생되고 있는 사실이다. 문명은 민족의 상징이며 종족의 정체성이기 때문이다.

  • Haewon-sangsaeng is a key idea of Daesoon Jinrihoe, which, as Professor Bae Kyuhan points out, "… has broad applications." Haewon-sangsaeng is not only congenial to Chinese Harmonism, but it also enriches this concept. However, many scholars understand Haewon-sangsaeng in a relatively narrow scope. For them, Haewon-sangsaeng is confined to pertaining only to human relationships. For example, Don Baker, the author of Korean Spirituality, states that "Haewon means relieving the resentment human beings past and present have felt because they were treated unfairly". Sangsaeng refers to "a spirit of mutual aid and cooperation" rather than "the spirit of competition and conflict that has dominated the human community up to the present day". This article argues that Haewon-sangsaeng not only has religio-ethical implications, but ecological implications as well. Specifically, it has relevance for the goal of creating an ecological civilization that aims at the harmony of humans and nature. In other words, Haewon-sangsaeng can be both "expanded for the global peace and the harmony of all humanity" and can be expanded for healing the relationship between humans and nature, including human beings and viruses. In order not to risk being "the first Earth species knowingly to choose self-extinction", an Ecological Civilization is urgently needed before it's too late. Alone with Chinese Harmonism, Haewon-sangsaeng can make great contributions to the cause of ecological civilization by transcending anthropocentrism, individualism, and the worship of competition as root causes of the predicaments faced by modern civilization.

  • The theme of Caucasus in Russian literature stemmed from A. Pushkin's The Prisoner of the Caucasus (1820) became expended when it reached to writer Bestuzhev-Marlinsky. The writer's magnum opus, Allamat-Bek (1832), was based on a real historical event. Being proponent to the side of Russian ideology, this work strongly presents that the primary task the Russian Imperialist government paused in this region at the time was civilization of the Caucasus through diplomatic and humanistic ways. There are three main protagonists in this work, but Berkhovsky and Sultan Akhmet-Khan are the characters who stand for the contradictory views toward the "war between Russia- Caucasus." While the former, Berkhovsky, thinks that the conflict between the two parties might be solved by means of communication and cooperation, the latter, on the other hand, is opposed to any of peaceful completion of this war. Allamat-Bek, the main hero of this work, however, passes away, going back and forth between loyalty and renegation. The author goes on to describe that Berkhovsky considers the Caucasus as Eden, the land of fruits, unlike Russia which appears as the land of labor. Yet, for Berkhovsky the Caucasus is presented as the land which needs enlightenment. This is the transformation of the so-called typical Western Orientalism. Bestuzhev-Marlinsky does not take side of either evil or good between the Russian Orthodoxy and the Islam, that is the conflict between the two opponent parties. The writer, instead, argues that this is just difference between the familiar and the strange, that is, the svoi and the chuzhoi. What is the very picture the writer wants to show the reader, then, is that it is petty and sad to see the unavoidable violent progress which happened and experienced by the indigenous people during the civilization of the Caucasus by the Russian Imperialist government.

  • An outsider's perspective is often illuminating and enlightening, as he or she perceives the world differently from us, and sees things that insiders tend to miss. While an outsider's views are fresh and penetrating, an insider's vision is often banal and myopic. Although outsiders' perspectives may not be quite right at times, they always shed light and provide insight, allowing us to reevaluate the conventional interpretations of our literature and folktales. In order to prevent our own understanding and knowledge from growing stale and narrow-minded, we should endeavor to consider outsiders' opinions and view all things from multiple angles. When reading literary or cultural texts, therefore, we need to read through others' eyes because it provides alternative perspectives. And we should learn to co-exist with others and see things from others' eyes. In his celebrated novel, My Name Is Red, Orhan Pamuk, the Turkish Nobel Laureate, explores the themes of clashes between the East and the West, the young and the old, and conservatism and radicalism. The confrontation between the stubborn defenders of tradition and the self-righteous innovators ultimately results in bigotry, hatred and murder. As Pamuk aptly perceives in his novel, the inevitable outcome of such uncompromising conflict is degradation of humanity and annihilation of human civilization. That is precisely why we need to embrace others who are different from us and learn to look through others' eyes. Sometimes, we fear other voices and different perspectives. As the movie "The Others" suggests, however, there is no reason for us to be afraid of others.

  • Senile Dementia is one of the dispositional mental disorder which has been known to the world since Hippocratic age. It has become a wide-spread social problem all over the world because of chronic disease processes and the demands of dependent care for several years as well as improbability of treatment of it at the causal level. Essentially, life styles of the older generation differ from those of the younger generation. While the fomer is used to the patriarchal system and the spirit of filial piet and respect, the latter is pragmatized and individualized under the effects of the Western material civilization. These differences between the two generations cause conflict between family members. In particular, the pain and conflict of care-givers who take care of a totally dependent dementia patient not only is inciting to the collapse of the family union, but is expanding into a serious social problem. According to this practical difficulty, this study has tried to compare dementia care-givers' experiences inter-culturally and to help set up more proper nursing interventions, describing and explaining them through ethnographies by participant observation and in-depth interviews that enable seeing them in a more close, honest and certain way. It also tries to provide a theoetical model of nusing care for dementia patients which is proper to Korean culture. This study is composed of 12 participants (4 males, 8 females) whose ages range from 37-71 years. The relations of patients are 5 spouses(3 husbands, 2 wives), 4 daughters-in-law, 2 daughters, and 1 son-in-law. The following are the care-givers' meaning of experiences that results of the study shows. The first is "psychological conflict". It contains the minds of getting angry, reproaching, being driven to dispair, blaming oneself, giving up lives, and being afraid, hopeless, and resigned. The second is "physical, social and psychological pressure" . At this stage, care-givers are shown to be under stress of both body and soul for the lack of freedom and tiredness. They also feel constraint because they hardly cope with the care and live through others' eyes. The third is "isolation". It makes the relationship of patient care-giver to be estranged, without understanding each other. They, also, experience indifference such as being upset and left alone. The forth is "acceptance" They gradually have compassion, bear up and then adapt themselves to the circumstances they are in. The fifth is "love". Now they learn to reward the other with love. It is also shown that this stage contains the process of winning others' recognition. The final is "hope". In this stage they really want situations to go smoothly and hope everything will be O.K. These consequences enable us to summarize the principles of cue experience such as, in the early stage, negative response such as physical·psychological confusion, pain and conflict are primary. Then the stage of acceptance emerges. It is an initial positive response phase when care-givers may admit their situations. As time passes by a positive response stage emerges. At last they have love and hope. Three stages we noted above : however, there are never consistent situations. Rather it gradually comes into the stage of acceptance, repeating continuous conflict, pressure and isolation. If any interest and understanding of families or the support of surrounding society lack, it will again be converted to negative responses sooner or later. Otherwise, positive responses like hope and love can be encouraged if the family and the surroundings give active aids and understanding. After all, the principles of dementia care experiences neither stay at any stage, nor develop from negative stages to positive stages steadily. They are cycling systems in which negative responses and positive responses are constantly being converted. I would like to suggest the following based on the above conclusions : First, the systematic and planned education of dementia should be performed in order to enhance public relations. Second, a special medical treatment center which deals with dementia, under government's charge, should be managed. Third, the various studies approaching dementia care experiences result in the development of more reasonable and useful nursing guidelines.

  • Research on Seokgok(石谷), Lee Gyu Jun(李圭晙, 1855~1923)'s thought and medicine was progressed from various angles. There is no research on Chinese poem(漢詩) accounting for the half of his collection of literary works, "Seokgoksango(石谷散稿)" yet. Hence, the article reviewed concerns on his life and what life he lived as a Confusion(儒家) writer through his Chinese poem. Should read "Seokgoksango", Seokgok's spiritual orientation and attitude to life were found to have its core in the Confusion(儒家的), especially ethical(道學的) aspect. Seokgok's Chinese poem materialized his spiritual composition more, able to access up to general emotional state, representing concerns and frustration of intellectuals in the latter era of the Choson Dynasty. Anxiety consciousness(憂患) of patriotism and love of the people which traditional intellectuals implicated enough at the turbulent era of early modern time appeared strongly in his works. Also works seeking for devotion(歸依) toward the clean world(淸明世界) staring at the corrupt world losing the national sovereignty at the same time and the expansion(擴散) was able to be found many. The latter half of the 19th century and the early 20th century when Seokgok lived was the period of changeover in the history of civilization called intersection between traditional era and modern times. His Chinese poem showed traditional intellectuals' anxiety, frustration, conflict, and hope based on such times. Along with the status of an Oriental, medical doctor and thinker, up to discussion on the quality of a writer, the intensified research on him is expected.

  • From the Darwinian perspective, all the human behaviors and thoughts are operated by "the selfish gene," the term coined by Richard Dawkins, which has long been evolving to survive by utilizing the limited quality and quantity of resources. And an organism which fails to regenerate by creating its "replicator" is doomed to extinction, for gene combinations which help an organism to survive and reproduce tend to also improve the gene's own chances of being passed on through generations. Dawkins also coins the term "meme" for a unit of human cultural evolution analogous to the gene, suggesting that such selfish replication may also be the principle for human culture. Ian McEwan is not only a controversial but more importantly influential writer in the 21st century academic world. His 1997 book Enduring Love is not exceptional in that it draws both literary and scientific attention. Intentionally set up with the dynamic conflict between the two cultures, namely art and science, the book explores the way in which the state of the modern minds is misinterpreted and estranged by each other. In this novel, the three main protagonists, Joe, Clarissa, and Jed, each representing the very important three elements of human civilization-cognition/science, emotion/art, and faith/religion-meet an unexpected peril of life. The author of the novel employs the narrative of evolutionary science-in particular the narratives of gene and meme-to provoke the question of the two cultures famously addressed by Snow in the mid 20th century and the further discussions followed by the later Darwinian scholars such as Richard Dawkins. In this paper I aim to illustrate the way in which the author develops the idea of gene science and literature and how he proceeds to provide a sophisticated bridge between the two cultures and induce a kind of consilience by the recurrent name of love in the story of Enduring Love.

  • 연구 목적 : 동무 이제마는 1984 년에는 '한국문화예술선현(韓國文化藝術先賢)' 50인 중의 한 사람으로 지정되고, 1996년에는 12월이 '이제마의 달'로 지정되어 그의 업적을 기념하였으나, 일부 역사가는 그가 1896년 함경도(咸慶道) 의병장(義兵將) 최문환(崔文煥)을 잡아 가둔 인물이라 하여 그의 업적 평가에 문제를 제기하기도 한다. 이에 본 연구는 1896년 함흥에서 일어난 소요를 중심으로 당시의 시대 상황 및 발생 동기와 경과 과정을 규명함으로써 이 사건에 대한 정확한 평가(評價)를 내리고 이를 통해 이제마(李濟馬)의 사상적(思想的) 연원(淵源)을 연구하는데 단서를 찾고자 한다. 연구 방법 : 본 연구는 먼저 조선 후기의 시대적 배경과 을미의병에 대해 살펴 보고 1896년 (병신(丙申)) 함흥에 서 최문환을 중심으로 일어난 사건을 정부측(政府側) 기록, 의병(義兵)(최문환(崔文煥))측(側) 기록, 이제마측(李濟馬側) 기록, 그리고 직접적으로 관련이 없이 나타나는 기타(其他) 사료(史料)들을 중심으로 비교 검토하였다. 연구 결과 및 결론 : 1896년 2월 함흥(咸興)에서 일어난 혼란은 을미사변(乙未事變)과 단발령(斷髮令)으로 폭발한 을미의병운동의(乙未義兵運動)의 일환으로 최문환(崔文煥)이 중심이 되어 단발(斷髮)을 강요하던 관리(官吏)들을 살해한 사건이다. 이 때 이제마(李濟馬)는 최문환을 붙잡아 가두고 난(亂)을 진압하여 훗날 '의병을 탄압했다'는 비난을 받게 된다. 그러나 당시는 수구(守舊)와 개화(開化)가 충돌하는 시기였으며, 이러한 혼란으로 말미암아 있을 수 있는 원산(元山) 일본군(日本軍)의 공격으로부터 주민(住民)의 안전(安全)을 최우선적으로 보호하기 위한 행동이었다. 이와 같은 행동을 근거로 보아 이제마는 유생의병(儒生義兵)들이 주장하던 위정척사(衛正斥邪)의 주자학적(朱子學的) 문화이념(文化理念)이나 복고주의적(復古主義的) 정치이념(政治理念)과는 다른 사상(思想)을 가지고 있었으며, 내면적으로는 새로운 변화를 추구하고 있었음을 알 수 있다. 향후 한국(韓國) 민족운동사적(民族運動史的) 측면(側面)에서 의병장(義兵將) 최문환(崔文煥)에 대한 좀 더 많은 연구(硏究)가 필요할 것으로 생각한다.

  • 영화 <기생충>은 칸 영화제(Cannes Film Festival)에서 황금종려상을 수상하고 2020년 2월 아카데미 작품상도 받아 기념비적 평가를 받는다. 일반적으로 평론가들은 이 영화를 격렬하게 뒤틀린 계급격차, 계급의 분노와 같이 계급(class)간 갈등을 주제로 논평한다. 영화 <기생충>은 마르크시즘(Marxism)의 정형화된 계급투쟁 구도보다 "악한이 등장하지 않는 비극", "문화로 체화된 내재적 갈등"을 표현하고 있다. 다시 말해 부르디외(Pierre Bourdieu)가 주장한 기체화(substrate)된 현대사회의 계급관계를 표현한다고 볼 수 있다. 영화 <기생충>은 이념 대립이 과잉인 한국사회에 논쟁의 주제가 되었다. <기생충>이란 키워드는 문화 콘텐츠가 아닌 정치권의 논쟁에서 차용된 경향도 발견할 수 있다. 기생충을 좌파 선동 영화라 치부하는 주장도 있지만 정작 사회주의가 국가이념인 중국에서는 개봉을 금지시켰다. 반면 이어령은 영화 <기생충>이 이분법적 시각으로 사회현상을 바라보지 않고 겹 시각(dual view)으로 바라보고 있다고 주장하며 긴장 속에서 인간을 바라보는 눈을 잃지 않았다고 주장한다. 이런 관점은 생명자본론 (vital capitalism)에 기초한다. 생명자본론은 계급투쟁 갈등에서 역사발전 근인을 찾지 않고 생명이 가진 고유 특성 토포필리아(topophilia), 네오필리아(neophilia), 바이오필리아(biophilia)로 역사와 사회를 해석한다. 또한 문명 발전을 홉스 (Hobbes)의 포식주의 단계, 미셀 세르(Michel Serres)의 숙주-기생 단계, 마굴리스(Margulis)의 상호 기생, '상생'의 단계로 발전해왔다고 조망한다. 이 논문에서는 생명자본의 개념을 소개하고 문화자본에 관한 선행연구를 분석한 후 영화<기생충>의 내용 중 문화자본에서 주장하는 아비투스(habitus), 기초한 장(fields)의 개념으로 해석된 장면(차별, 취향, 교육, 기생)을 중심으로 생명자본적인 재해석을 시도한다. 선행연구의 이론적 기초가 되는 문화자본론은 콘텐츠 해석에 있어 자기이해의 단일동기로 해석의 다양성과 우연성을 저감할 가능성이 높고 도식화된 해석이 될 수 있다. 또한 연속론 즉 시대와 환경은 변해도 자본주의의 속성은 연속된다는 주장은 새로운 하부구조(기술혁신, 생산성 증대)의 변화와 이에 의해 변화되는 사회관계와 개인의 역할을 해석하기 어려울 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 영화 <기생충(parasite)>을 텍스트로 선행연구들이 해석의 기초한 문화자본적 접근방법에 대응하여 생명자본의 해석적 대안의 가능성을 발견하였다. 이러한 탐색적 연구는 한국의 극단적 이념 풍토에 대한 대안의 시도라 할 수 있다.

  • In order that nursing care an essential quality of nursing practice be acceptable and satisfying, it is necessary that client's culture be respected and that nursing practice be appropriate to that culture. Since cultural elements are an important influence on health practices and life patterns related to medical treatment, recovery from and prevention of disease, nurses need to have an understanding and knowledge of social and cultural phenomena to aid in the planning of nursing interventions. To understand the health practices surrounding health and illness, the health beliefs and practices of both folk and professional healing systems should be ascertained. Cultural data are required to provide care of high quality to clients and to reduce possible conflict between the client and the nurse. It is nursing's goal to provide clients from various cultures with quality nursing care which is satisfying and valuable. The problem addressed by this study was to identify Korean health practices which would contribute to the planning of professional caring practice with the culture : ultimately this study was intended to make a contribution to the development of the science of nursing. The concrete objectives of this study were ; 1) to identify Korean health practices, 2) to interpret the identitial health practices through traditional cultural thought, and 3) to compare the Korean health practices with those of other cultures. The investigator used the ethnosceintific approach outlined by spradly in a qualitative study. To discover ancestral wisdom and knowledge related to traditional health practeces, the subjects of this study were selected from residents of a small rural mountain village in south west Korea, a place considered to be maintaining and transmitting the traditional culture in a relatively well -preserved state because of being isolated from the modern world. The number of subjects was 18, aged 71 to 89. Research data were collected from January 8 to March 31, 1990. Five categories of health practices were identified : “Manage one's own mind”, “Moderation in all thing”, “Live in accord with nature”, “Live in mutuality with others”, and “Live to the best of one's ability”. Values derived from these ways of thinking from Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism help fashion a traditional way of life, examplified by the saying “Benifience to all”. Korean thought and philosophy is influenced primerily by Confucianism, Confucian principles of ethics, embedded deeply in the peoples' minds, form the idea that “heaven and human being are intimately united” based on concept that “heaven is, so to speak, reason”. Twoe Gae's theory of existential subjectivity develops the concept of self which is the basis of the spirit of reverence in modern Confucian philosophy. The human md is granted from heaven out of the idea of matter, and what control the mind is the spirit of reverence. Hence the idea of “The primacy of the mind" and provided that one should control one's own mind. The precepts of duty to parents, respect for elders and worship of ancestors, and moderation in all behavior put a restraint on life which directed that one live earnestly according to Nature's laws with their neighbors. Not only Confucianism, but also Buddism and Taoism have had an important effect upon these patterns of ideas. When compared with western culture, Korean health practices tend to be more inclusive, abstract and intuitive while westerner health practices found to be mere concrete, practical and personal. Values and beliefs based and pragmatism and existentialism infuence western civilization, Ethical values may be founded on utilitarianism, which considers what is good for the persons in their circumstances as the basis of conduct and takes a serious view of their practical lives including human aspirations rather than an absolute truth. These philosophical and ethical ideas are foundations for health practices related to active, practical and progressive attitudes. This study should be enable nursing not only to understand clients as reflections of the traditional culture when planning nursing practice, but to dovelop health education corresponding to cultural requiments for the purpose of protection against disease and improvement of health, and thus promote sound health practice. Eventually it is hoped that through these processes quality nursing care as the central idea of the science of nursing will be achieved.
