Although Korea liberate from Japan empire, generally colonialism of Japan imperial is still powerful until 1950’s. This tendency is about colonialism because not systemically criticism. Therefore after liberating, the most urgent thing was overcome of the colonialism in the korea historian. Lee ki-baik was at the beginning logical criticize about in like this colonialism. Based on like this his role history study of korea go on forming up to this day.
This paper criticizes fictitious characteristic of colonialism how logically, time dividing of korea history removed from dynasty center and to be how schem. And inquire out about multi historical view colonial occupation time and after liberation have a what kind of opinion. also, agony about ‘nation’ and ‘truth’ that he kept in even until epitaph to aim whole arranges which historical view of Lee ki-baik.
Lee ki-baik, who was initially submit to overcome colonialism, reproached for scholar kept by japan goverment’s opinion. The basic of colonialism that is expressed with insurgent character, flankyism, party dispute, culture imitation characteristic, standstill characteristic etc. saw with geographical determinism. hereupon he was criticized that pulled a history not geopraphical factor but human.
The subject of history must human that his thought effect korean history time dividing. he classify a generation centering around leading influence, which move history take the leadership of politic, economy, society, culture of at the same season. He told the leading influence was changed the nobility → yangban → the populace. Magnification of like this leading influence knows that korea history is not congestion but developmental features.
We must be in agony, Lee ki-baik how to be show colonial rule time and appeared about multi historial view. Because of knowing that any effected on history studying and descriving of him.
I am of the opinion that Lee ki-baik concentrated his efforts on logically criticize about colonialism for what reason is pain nation. At this time he has not to do absolutely ideal of nation, to be a truth pursuit with the best which founded on accurate fact. Exactly, study of history is important love about nation but that it is real true thorough truth.
It is meaningful that Lee ki-baik was solve basic subject for you starting korea historical science by criticizing colonialism. And he was not stop doing effort to sincerely arrange of particular study achievement from the whole korea history. Also creative historical view which deviate from periodization in history of a dynasty center was concrete proposal about colonialism which heteronomous, stagnatory interpreted korea history. A background of his intend to korea history study and concernment through a life long-study are ‘Nation’. And he has particular concern at once, he aim at truth explore. Finally, korea history study of him was advanced to affection and interest about nation. But, it regard as succeed that is framed historical truth involved with universal validity.
