이 연구는 작가 손춘익의 동화창작(글쓰기)활동이 문학이 가지고 있는 치유(치 료)적인 효과를 증명할 수 있는 사례로 판단하고 증명하였다. 큰 틀에서 감정이입 과 카타르시스의 분출이 바탕인 문학치료학적인 관점에서 구체적으로는 저널치료로써 초기의 작품을 살폈다. 저널쓰기는 일반적 글쓰기보다 자기 삶에 대한 반성 과 성찰, 복원의 요소가 특히 드러난다. 따라서 개인의 무의식이 중요하다. 또한 미국에서는 연구로 검증된 프로그램들이 존재한다. 손춘익은 미국학자들이 언급한 이론과 방법들을 이미 사용하고 있었다. 손춘익은 지독한 가난과 무능력한 아버지 의 학대, 남동생의 죽음을 겪었다. 아버지에 대한 원망과 꿈을 포기하면서 갈등으 로 괴로워했고, 학교에서는 가난 때문에 수치심을 느끼며 성장했다. 따라서 이론적 으로는 무의식 상처에 깊이 연관된 ‘오이디푸스 콤플렉스’와 트라우마인 ‘문화적 수치심’을 바탕으로 그의 상처가 무의식에 남아 작품에 어떻게 반영되었는지를 살 폈다. 손춘익은 화가가 되고 싶었으나 일찍 포기하고 대신 독서광이 되었다. 독서 나 쓰기 등의 문학적 활동은 그의 인생에서 친구와 스승, 상상의 아버지를 보여주 면서 손춘익을 성장시켰다. 동화창작은 그에게 어른이자 작가가 된 뒤, 본인의 어 린 시절 자아를 불러내서 글쓰기로 상처를 다독인 것이다. 앞으로 후기까지 다른 작품으로 손춘익의 치유과정에 대한 연구가 진행될 것이다.
The purpose of this research is to evaluate and demonstrate the therapeutic effects of creative writing activities based on the case of Choon-ik Sohn, the children’s author whose writing can be understood as an example of literary therapy (treatment). To do it, the study reexamines his early literary works as forms of journal therapy from the larger perspective of literary therapy. Compared to other forms of writing, writing a journal proves to be more self-reflective and restorative of one’s life. In light of this fact, individual unconsciousness counts as a significant aspect. In the United States, research that show these effects have been conducted and verified. Sohn has already used theories and methods that American scholars have used. In his youth, he went through psychological trauma due to severe poverty and suffered under a lot of conflict and distress deep down in his unconscious world because of his father who was incompetent and did a great deal of damage to the family. In school, he felt very ashamed of his poverty. Thus, he grew up suffering with a great sense of shame from his dark family days. Therefore, the research reviews how his heartbroken pain and sufferings are mirrored in his literary works on the basis of two theoretical factors: the ‘Oedipus Complex’ deeply associated with his painful agony within his unconscious, and the ‘sense of cultural shame’ owing to his trauma. Sohn gave up his dream as a painter, and instead, became an extensive reader. The literary activities that he carried out through reading and writing helped Sohn grow, based on the friends, mentors or even the imaginary father that he was able to encounter. In particular, his creative activity of writing children’s stories conjured up his younger ego that had been rooted in his heart since an early age, and his heartbroken soul was healed after he became an adult and an author. The study on therapeutic processes in Sohn’s later literary works is another topic for research that will continue to be explored in the future.
