영문 초록

The most effective way for both a narrative subject and readers to get absorbed in a narrative is interpellation a powerful "character". Based on historical background covering the East and the West, the characters in the fantasy narrative have been produced repeatedly through diverse media. And they have played a more significant role in forming their own atmospheres, absorbing readers into the situation set by an author. Among the objects interpellation in the fantasy narratives, with the diverse history about cross combination, it is a witch that is the typical character categorized with its powerful devilishness. On this account, looking back on the witch's real history reveals social vulnerability of the feudal ages 조 ether in the East or in the West. At the same time, it will be the work tracing back the conspiracy asked for until the strong interpellation the object turned out real horror and cruelty through the effect on fantasy narratives by the psychological irony of the ruling classes approaching devilishness. This paper covers the two works that hold the prototype of a witch character and the three novels that showed a possibility of the new interpellation. All of them were the works after 2000. Of course, we cannot clearly confirm the process of how a witch character changes into a positive and individual subject in modern narratives after it used to be a signaling subject and be alienated through violent unanimity yet. However, the process of searching for a witch's another nam disintegrates the ruling description and suggests the possibility of escaping from the limitation of a chronic character at the same time. Above all, the fact that the aspect of dislocated interpellation proceeds parallel with its prototypical symbol can be a metonym of nomadism, a basic characteristic of fantasy. Nomadism means what never settle down in a certain place or at a certain moment and what can combine with any objects easily and create a hybrid. Such possibility is the most powerful and positive function of fantasy narratives. The way the witch character, whose position is firm in the fantasy narrative, gets its more diffused position is that it creates unsettled images ceaselessly based on its primitive vitality.
