영문 초록

Generally speaking, the technologies and the inventions at in same age evolve from that of the past and transmitted to that of the future. So the expert like Rofer Fidler who wrote ´mediamorphosis´ explained that the technologies and the invention which was independent of that of the old could not be existed. Concerned the technologies and the inventions of communication media, he amplified the steps of transformation of media(mediamorphosis) with coevolution, convergence and complexity. If we adopt the Fidler's concept to telegraph which was regarded as ´highway thought´ and internet which is called as ´information superhighway´, what kinds of similarities could be drawn? The answer about the question could be described as follows; 1. Telegraph and Internet could surpass time and space, so people could communicate each other simultaneously without distance and time.(transcendence of time and space) 2. Internet's modem and hardware is attributed to that of telegraph. For instance, they are going through the same motions as eight-panel shutter telegraph would have are going through the same motions as eight-digit binary number or byte, they are going through the same motions as eight-panel shutter telegraph would have done 200 years ago.(similarity of modem and hardware) 3. More striking still are the parallels between the social impact of the telegraph and that of the internet. public reaction to the new technologies was, in both cases, a confused mixture of hype and skepticism. (social impact) 4. Scam artists found crooked ways to make money by manipulating the transmission of stock prices and the results of horse races using telegraph ; their 20th century counterparts have used the Internet to set up fake ´shop fronts´ purporting to be legitimate providers of financed services. People who were worried about inadequate security on the telegraph network, and now on the Internet, turned to the same solution: secret codes.(quarrel with misuses and good uses) 5. External enmity between new, inexperienced users and old hands. Highly skilled telegraphers and Interneters look down on the inexperienced and the old hands because of stupidity´gullibity expands the gap between the experienced and inexperienced.(conflict between experienced and inexperienced) 6. After a period of initial skepticism, businesses became the most enthusiastic adopters of the telegraph in the 19th century and the internet in the 20th century.(used mainly at business sector) 7. Telegraph was so widely seen as a panacea is perhaps understandable. The fact that we are still making the same mistake today is less so. The irony is that even though it failed to live up to the utopian claims made about it, the telegraph really did transform the world. It also redefined forever our attitudes toward new technologies. In both respects, we are still living in the new world it inaugrated.(both are not panacea)
