영문 초록

In fairy tales, mostly fathers do not exist. It is especially true in classic fairy tales. In the times when classic fairy tales were handed down orally, patriarchal culture was dominant. On the contrary, in fairy tales in nowadays fathers belong to minority or they just do not show up. Fathers in imaginative tales also commonly do not show an important role in story. Children's fairy tales take great part in making children to have positive attitudes in their lives. Nevertheless, in many fairy tales, fathers do not exist who are the most important part of their children's social relationship as well as their mothers'. This fact may make juvenile misunderstand as fathers are indifferent to their children. This research specializes in explaining this doubtful point and what absence of fathers in fairy tales means. This research has analyzed the pattern of fathers' absence with four classic fairy tales and five imaginative tales which are given in the elementary textbook. Causes of fathers' absence included death, disappearance, missing, leaving home, noninterference with their children, passiveness and feeble-minded-ness. This research has classified fathers' absence into three categories : concealed pattern, finding-father-pattern, incapacity pattern. Concealed pattern means fathers are never mentioned in the story. ‘The Woodcutter And The Fairy’ belongs to this category. Finding-father-pattern means fathers are apparently absent such as their deaths or disappearance. ‘The Brother And Sister Who Became The Sun And The Moon’ and ‘Heung-Bu And Nor-Bu’ which are famous Korean classic fairy tales and ‘Fish Which Rides Bicycle’, ‘Let Me Borrow My Father’, ‘Seeing the Sunrise’ are examples of this category. Incapacity pattern indicates that although fathers exist in tales they do not have significant power as fathers normally do. Economic incapacity was the most dominant pattern of fathers' absence in imaginative tales. Classic fairy tales such as ‘Sim Cheong Jeon’ and imaginative tales such as ‘Iron Pot’, ‘Woo-Reong Wife In My House’ belong to this category. The meaning of father's absence was analyzed based on the end of the fairy tales and protagonists' mental states. This research has referred to Freud's Oedipus complex and the Booyoung-Lee's mentality of self-realization. In the case of concealed pattern children are especially close to their mother and finally they do not overcome Oedipus complex and face unhappy consequence. Therefore, this research has concluded that concealed pattern was a type of father's absence to emphasize their mother's love. Findingfather - pattern features a person who replaces father's place. The representatives help protagonists when they are in danger or need help. Finding-father-pattern fairy tales show the process of main character's development through the ordeals. Protagonists' egos mature gradually through overcoming their ordeals. In other words, father's absence in finding-father-pattern tales helps main characters to develop their self-realization. Incapacity pattern tales show how hard it is for children to live without their fathers' assistance. But these stories also show that when fathers come back to their normal lives and fulfill their duties, their families can be happy. These fairy tales give a lesson that fathers' responsibility to their families should be strong enough. Therefore father's absence in incapacity pattern fairy tales is a paradoxical absence to emphasize fathers role in families. The limit of this research is that patterns of father's absence was not diverse enough in that nine fairy tales in elementary textbooks are not enough. Moreover, because the classic fairy tales which were selected as samples of this research had too many dramatizations, it had to select the common story theme.
