요약 : This thesis studies the metamorphoses of the epic as it transforms itself into the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century mock-epic, namely Pope's The Dunciad, and Byron's Don Juan. I argue that these transformations in epic also reflect the disintegration of a seemingly unified set of values as these are positioned by the Homeric text, and their subsequent rewriting and rearticulation by Virgil, Pope, and Byron. These transformations, in short, not only mark changes in the development of the epic as a genre; they also mark epistemic changes in the functions and positions of orality, the technology of writing, the author, audience reception, and the problematic of literary production and social value. I focus especially on those intergeneric mutations which are intrinsically related to shifts in technologies of writing, and which have the greatest impact on the narrative organization of both epic and mock-epic. The first chapter retheorizes the resurgence of the mock-epic in the eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries. The second chapter traces the narrative discrepancies between Homer's epics and Virgil's Aeneid, primarily by correlating their different world configurations with their narrative organization. The third chapter analyzes Pope's The Dunciad as satiric parody of the Virgilan epic. It argues that epic's profoundly ambivalent stance toward the dissolution of traditional values and the ascendent hegemony of the new. The fourth chapter focuses on Byron's Don Juan as both satire on Virgil's epic and parody of Homer's, and as the narrative embodiment of self-contradictory and destabilizing beliefs and values. The fifth chapter concludes by underscoring the relation between cultural configuration and epic narrative organization.
