초록
Why should literature education go beyond humiliation and save human dignity? It starts from the premise that human beings have the right to live essentially humanly. As we’ve seen in this article, through novels of Asia, especially Korea and Turkey, for the purpose of a universal good life for mankind, literature and literature education should go in the direction of saving human dignity. The destruction of human dignity is carried out through customs and prejudices, ideology and it continues to be naturalized in a structure under the name of culture. Also, it is deepening in the social context of the global market system. The way to restore human dignity beyond the symptoms of paralysis to the suffering of others is to form solidarity through sympathy, sacrifice and to change the social structure. Literature, which has the power of constructive thinking and the power to uplift the good nature of human, and literature education to promotes human growth by teaching it, have a mission to improve this public sphere.
