교양 글쓰기에서 묘사, 혹은 묘사적 글쓰기에 대하여
서유석 (경상대학교)
국문초록
그간의 대학 글쓰기 교육에서 묘사 혹은 묘사적 글쓰기는 ‘어떻게 묘사할 것인가’에 초점이 맞추어져 있었지만, 오히려 묘사 혹은 묘사적 글쓰기는 ‘무엇을 묘사할 것인가’로 그 교육의 초점이 이동되어야 함을 살폈다. 묘사는 그 자체로 글쓴이의 인식의 전환을 유도할 수 있고, 더 나아가 창의적 글쓰기를 가능하게 하는 양식이기 때문이다. 어떠한 사물에 대한 주관적 묘사들은 관습적인 비유를 넘어 창의적인 비유, 주관적 인식과 감각의 틀을 가질 때 오히려 독자의 이해에 좀 더 쉽게 다가설 수 있기 때문이다. 즉 묘사 대상을 관습적인 이미지를 통해 표현하려 하지 않고, 창의적인 표현으로 묘사할 때, 사물, 사건, 상황에 대한 새로운 인식이 발현될 수 있으며, 그 자체가 창의적 글쓰기로 확대될 수 있기 때문이다.
핵심어: 묘사, 설명, 기술, 객관적 묘사, 주관적 묘사, 지각적 묘사, 통각적 묘사.
On Description or Descriptive Writing in Cultural Writing
Seo, Youseok
Gyeongsang National University
In the writing education at universities, description or descriptive writing education appears to be divided mainly into the forms of objective description and subjective description. More importantly, however, it can be confirmed that not only in Korean language education but also in writing education, ‘description’ or ‘descriptive writing’ is just briefly explained as a way of writing, particularly as a concept of style which contrasts with ‘narration’ without its accurate concept or its educational objectives. Actually, it can be confirmed that the writing that is called ‘objective description’ is nearer to the definition of description than to descriptive writing. Since it is difficult for figurative __EXPRESSION__s or concrete numbers used for objective __EXPRESSION__ to agree exactly with the background knowledge or expectation horizon of very independent readers, eventually it cannot help but be limited to personal explanation. Accordingly, it can be confirmed that subjective description is rather easier for the writer’s intention to be combined with readers’ expectation horizon.
In the writing education at universities, description or descriptive writing has focused on ‘how to describe’, but this researcher examined that its focus should be shifted to ‘what to describe’. It is writer’s understanding and, by extension, make, make creative writing possible. It is because subjective description that has the framework of creative figure of speech and subjective understanding and senses beyond conventional figure of speech can have easier access to the readers. In other words, it is because when the things to describe are described with creative __EXPRESSION__s instead of trying to express through conventional images, the new understanding of things, events, and circumstances can be expressed and it in itself can be expanded to creative writing.
Key words: description, explanation, objective description, subjective description, how to describe, what to describe.
