영문 초록

  Flannery O"Connor"s fictions are the very stages where uncanny confrontations with the unfamiliar happen for the characters and also for the readers. She incessantly takes her characters into the real world of stark existence, and this is what exactly happens to the characters of "Greenleaf", "A Circle in the Fire," and "A View of the Woods".
  Mrs. May of "Greenleaf," Mrs. Cope of "A Circle in the Fire," and Mr. Fortune of " A View of the Woods" seek to define the boundaries of their property and they take every measure to defend their own domain under their control. However, into their well-ordered space something irrational happens; this uncanny experience takes them out of the boundaries of their logic and makes them face the primordial existence.
  Heidegger says that we sink ourselves into the hum of daily living and occupy ourselves with maintaining the structure and smooth operation of the machine our existence has become. According to him, in this daily existence we remove any need to confront personally that incoherent state of utter Being which is beyond our comfortable illusions of order.
  This paper is to trace how the violent world of revelation O"Connor"s characters are thrown into could be related to Heidegger"s defamiliarizing world of Being itself or utter being.
