Abstract

In this paper I try to compare the images of women in Tanizaki's works "Shisei" and "Shunkinsho" and Dong In's "Kyogashi" and to clarify some influences of the Japanese writer on the Korean writer. In his early period, Dong In described his heroines just as women of the age really were. After he read Tanizaki's "Shunkinsho", however, his heroines began to assume absolute ethereal beauty. Tanizaki often chooses devilish women as his heroines in order to present an image of power in woman. Dong In, on the other hand, limits himself simply to beautiful women without any other particular characteristics. Beauty in woman is an object to admire and worship for Tanizaki, while it is only an object of art for Dong In.
