본고는 한 社會의 次世代的 成長과 그를 위한 個人의 精神的 진통의 問題를 다루는 成長小說이 性別的 差異에 의하여 成長의 方向을 根本的으로 달리한다는 前提 하에 이동하의 유다의 시간과 오정희의 중국인 거리를 性別과 成長의 觀點에서 論議하였다. 유다의 시간은 家族 共同體 와해의 아픔을 극복하고, 戰爭 이후의 廢墟化된 世界 속에서 기존의 男性性의 典型的 屬性인 暴力性에 抵抗하며, 社會的 離脫이라고 하는 극단의 방식을 통해 새로운 世界를 摸索하고자 하는 少年의 成長을 보여 준다. 이에 반하여 중국인 거리는 生來的으로 주어진, 그리하여 마치 女性의 運命처럼 世代를 거듭하며 反復되는, 生産的 存在로서의 女性的 正體性에 固着되어 가는 소녀의 성장을 보여 준다. 결국 이들 작품은 각기 소년과 소녀의 성장의 모습을 보여 줌으로써 결과적으로 成長의 이념이 性差別的인 理念을 再生産하고 있음을 증거한다.

A Boy and a Girl, the Growth of Deviation and Fixation Jang, So-jin The present study discussed the issues of gender and growth using Lee, Dong-ha’s Jude’s Time and Oh, Jeong-hee’s Chinese Street, assuming that bildungsroman dealing with next‐generation growth of a society and individuals’ mental pains for the growth takes fundamentally different direction of growth according to gender. Jude’s Time, which deals with a boy’s growth, shows the journey of the growth of ‘I’ who overcomes the pain of the breakdown of family community, resists violence rampant in the ruined world after the war, searches for a new world through the extreme method of social deviation. The attitude of ‘I’ who tries to shake off the violent and unjust realities originates from male‐centered idea that takes the position of the main actor who changes the world and pursues active life. On the contrary, in Chinese Street that deals with the growth of a girl, ‘I’ shows the journey of growth that materializes the identity of a woman who has to live a mean life in the male centered world. As repeated through generations, the journey of the growth of ‘I’ who has to accept the identity of a woman as an inherently productive being shows the process of marginalization, materializing the fate of a woman who has been fixed as a sexual object in the male centered world. Through the two works, we confirmed a series of journeys that the direction of growth is determined by gender and the life pattern of men and women is decided differently according to the direction, and this suggests that gender discriminative ideas are reproduced expansively by the journey of growth distinctive between men and women.
