Comparative study : retained modernity in theory of literary education for Natsume Soseki and Lee Gwangsoo Kwon, Hyuk-Gun․Lee, Ho-Gyoo․Kim, Ju-Hyun Soseki is representative novelist and theorists of Japanese modern literature, and Lee Gwangsoo (Lee) is known as person who opened doors to Korean modern literature. They are representing not only Korean and Japanese modern literature, but also Oriental modern literature. We focused on the early stages of their literary theories. As well, looked into their arguments based on their ideas of literary education in relation between literature and society. Although Soseki and Lee are both representatives of Korean and Japanese modern literature, we have found their literary theories to have contrasts, as well as undertoned ideal substance. Their findings show identical recognition in defining the workings of human mind as intellect, emotion and volition. Also, their thoughts on the realm of emotion is the characteristic of literature, and explained modern literature by drawing the concepts of rationality and truth. Soseki insisted literary art is not a simple skill; a literary artist could influence others due to their ideals that a literary artist is someone who has the biggest and highest ideals. Lee's argument resembles Soseki's argument. Lee contended literary art can be made simply with skill and endeavor. Only highly gifted artist can take charge of a growing self-regulating person who could lead society through literature. Soseki and Lee both, therefore, conclude the Occidental natural science (in other words, education that is logical and substantiate) is modern education, and upcoming Oriental new education need to take after. We found Soseki and Lee have contended education through literature that could produce self-regulating and liberal individuals based on the mentioned Occidental new education.

The Japanese Living and Fishery campaign at Pusan area in compilation time of “The Chronicle of Korea Fishery” Shim, Min-Jung By using the data “The Chronicle of Korea Fishery,” this study described the maritime fishery activities of Japanese people in Pusan area, which they entered for the first time in Korea. Pusan area was the place that Japanese people first entered in Korea and was the most preferred Japanese settlement since it was geographically close to Japan. For this reason, Japanese settlement population was the largest in Pusan until that of Seoul exceeded it in 1908. In addition, surrounded by the sea, Pusan functioned as a place for fishery as well as a harbor. In this regard, a large number of Japanese fishermen settled near the shore of Pusan including Jeolyeong Island and were engaged in fishery activities by establishing migrant fishing villages. Near the coast of Pusan, they caught whales, sea breams, ceros, pike eels, plaices, soles, Japanese needlefish, yellowtail fish, sea eels, stingrays, mussels, Gaebul (Urechis unicinctus) and anchovies, and they processed and sold anchovies by making warehouses for them. As shown in the processing and sales of anchovies, Japanese people residing in Pusan established Pusan Fisheries Company and its affiliated Pusan Fish Market to smoothly conduct their fishery activities and the processing and distribution of their catches. Besides, they founded a table salt factory and Korea Great Salt Sales Company for the production and sales of salt and various shipping firms and shipbuilding plants. It has been confirmed that this way Japanese people living in Pusan gained lots of wealth by entering the field of maritime fishery and did noticeable activities in the field of maritime fishery in Joseon.

A study of artistic unity in the V.Rasputin's works - Focused on the Medium length story “Farewell with Mazora”(1974) and short stories in 1990's. - Shim, So-Young The essence of philosophy in V.Rasputin's works are harmony between human and nature as well as human's position and role. V.Rasputin's view of the world are reflected through the circulation of the theme, the motive about "home" and the image of the heroine in his works. He did not speculate the submerged district of the farm land the loss of the home land as a mere social phenomena but thought it collapse of the philosophic and moral aspect in the sense of human's spiritual value. The human spiritual ground of the V.Rasputin's works equated with the concept of the “home”. The stereotyped image of the woman of the guardian of “home” and “memory” in the V.Rasputin's works contains in them not only the harmonic universe, the strength but also inner beauty. We can notice through the shapes of his works the deep and affection of the human. Through the these distinct features in V.Rasputin's works show us the organic relation in the circulation of his stories and finally reveal them the unification of the stories.
