죽음과 젠더에 관한 한 시론: 19세기말~20세기 초의 회화와 문학 작품을 중심으로
A Fragmentary Reflections upon Death and Femininity: 19th Fin-de-siècle & the Beginning of 20th Century Arts and Literatures
The study of the contiguity between death and femininity in Western literature has been made by many scholars such as Beth Bassein, Elisabeth Bronfen, Dorothy Dinnerstein, Nina Auerbach, and Bram Dijikstra. The Arts and literatures of the fin-de-siècle especially give lots of connecting links to the notion of death and femininity. Of course, the tendency to see death as being masculine has been existed. According to Karl Guthke, who did a memorable study about the correlation and identification of death and femininity, the gender of death in the Middle Ages was uncertain because one could not decide whether Eve or Adam really brought death upon mankind. In the ages of the Renaissance and the Baroque, death was represented as demon who had no specific gender. It was in the Romantic Age when death was clearly defined as masculine: the motifs of “death and the maiden” and “death and the bride” became prevalent. It was in the end of the 19th century, however, that death was redefined and regarded as feminine. Lilith and Salambo were female figures who predominated in the arts and literary scenes of this century. Whether death is redefined as good or bad, masculine or feminine, the tendency to see women as keepers and carriers for death will be no more kept and valid in its old usage and context. To see woman as again the embodiment of love and regeneration will provide an alternative for the Western world which is death-oriented in its pursuit of destructive masculinity, violence, and war.

소개
국제언어인문학회는 '언어를 통한 인문학 연구'의 필요성에 동감하는 여러 전공분야 학자들의 뜻을 담고 있습니다. 언어에 초점을 맞추는 것은, 다양한 전공분야의 참여에서 생겨날 수 있는 '이질적 집합'의 상황을 극복하기 위한 장치입니다. 현재로서는 작은 불씨를 지핀 것에 불과합니다. 그러나 이렇게 일구어진 불꽃이 새로운 학풍의 바람결에 커다란 섬광으로 빛나게 될 날이 올 것을 우리는 확신합니다. 우리의 학회와 학술지는 인문학 불변의 가치와 시대적 사명을 인식하는 국내외의 학자들을 향해 활짝 개방되어 있습니다. 특정 전공의 범위를 넘어서서 철학, 문학, 언어학, 종교, 역사, 문화, 예술 등의 시각에서 언어의 본질을 토론할 기회가 될 것입니다.
