Research on the experiences of transcending realms in Korean, Chinese, and Vietnamese fictional biography: focusing on Jeondeungsinhwa, Geumosinhwa, Joengimanrok (Truyền kỳ mạn lục)

Abstract

In the cultural magnetic field of East Asia, which is a cultural sphere of Chinese characters, Korea, China, and Vietnam have produced various literary works that reflect similar yet independent histories and cultures. In this study, we pay attention to Jeondeungsinhwa (傳燈新話), Geumohsinhwa (金鰲新話), and Jeongimanrok (Truyền kỳ mạn lục, 傳奇漫錄), which are collections of fictional biography(傳記小說) formed in the three countries in the 14th and 16th centuries, and analyze the similarities and differences of the experiences of other worlds in the three collections from a comparative literary perspective
