唐代 近體詩 對仗의 色彩語 연구 (2)

Abstract

T'ang dynasty was an era filled with vigorous energy. Although there were some disturbances like An Lushan's Rebellion, however, it still had spiritual richness. Poets composed plenty of poems, while crisscrossing the entire country, and they can show their ability without any external restrictions that suppress the freedom of expression. The excellent senses of color in their poems illustrate these spiritual richness and the freedom of expression. And the poets of T'ang dynasty were absorbed in writing modern style poems which the aesthetics of juxtaposition is regarded as a very important element. The color terms used in the juxtaposition were a point of contact between the sense of color and the regulated verses. In this paper, I examined those color terms in order to capture the essences of T'ang dynasty's regulated verses. The first investigation was focused on the location and types of which the color terms used frequently. Many examples were founded at the first character both in five-character verses and seven-character verses. T'ang poets combined two or more color terms in their poem, and achieved magnificent effects such as contrasts of similarity, brightness, and chroma. The second point are the characteristics of the usage of color terms. This includes the prefference of color terms and the influences of several major poets. I suggested three substantial preferred color terms, that is ‘Blue 靑’, ‘Yellow 黃’, ‘Red 紅’, besides structural prefferred color term ‘White 白’. The Three major poets like Li Bai 李白, Du Fu 杜甫, Bai Juyi 白居易 showed remarkable achievements and influences with regard to distinctive command of color terms. Finally, I presented some of the concrete examples that T'ang poets used the color terms in their poems aesthetically. They had an ability enough to arrange color terms chromatically, and to discover the beauty of color. They also attempted some techniques to increase the effects of poetics such as disharmonic combination, separation, and manifesting synesthesia when using the color terms. Specially, the effective fusion of real color and imaginary color was an ambitious work that could articulate the traditional aesthetic sense of Chinese culture.
