영시 번역에 나타난 한국어 2인칭 대명사의 사용양상

초록

English second-person pronouns in poetry seem to have contributed to the differential use of second-person pronouns in Korean verse writing. In a written text, tangsin and keudae refer to a person in a higher rank, which are rarely used so in speech. When the three most popular poetry books were reviewed, some interesting aspects were found: English ‘you’ and ‘thou’ are translated into the non-deferential neo when its referents are plants, birds, concepts, and younger people; when the referents are historical figures and parted lovers, the more deferential keudae is preferred; to refer to people in a higher position or male lovers for poetesses, the most deferential tangsin is favored.
