전쟁의 상흔에서 찾은 생태 회복과 치유: 영화 <나무를 심은 사람>과 <라스트 모히칸>을 중심으로

초록

The Man Who Planted Trees(1987) and The Last of the Mohicans(1992) deal with the wounds of the people who were hurt during the wars. First of all, The Man Who Planted Trees revives the ecological sensitivity of humanity that has been lost during the World Wars through the detailed sense of exquisite pastel animation. The Last of the Mohicans shows the ecological view of North American Indians. In the mid-18th century, France and Britain struggled for power during the colonial period of the Americas. The Indians' ecological consciousness and attitude toward nature can be analyzed through the lives of the protagonist, Hawkeye, and some American Indians in the film. The idea of ecology in the two films, in harmony with nature and respect for all living beings, makes us see nature not as a place governed by the laws of survival, but as a collection of organisms that circulate and coexist together. Such cosmopolitan view on nature and ecosystem can contribute to making people in global village stay in the condition of inner peace and in the heart of “Mother Earth.”
