Generally, Paek Shin-Ae's works reveal her critical mind on the reality. She, who had experienced various problems as a women's libber and a colony, had a strong negative consciousness with her. She recoginzed her occupied reality as a "problemized reality", and focussed on the novelistic shaping of it. The aim of this paper is to verify the literary characteristics of her works. For this purpose, I grasp her works and the contemporary society organically, verify their presented aspects of a "problemized reality", and try to verify her principle of shaping it. To make her ciritical mind on "problemized reality" clear, her characters are classified into four types and the characteristic attitude in the shaping of her works is examined. The first type is the women image of conflict in the traditional order and morality. They are characters shaped in a series of autobiographical novels, such so "My Mother", "Straggling", and "In a Confusion" etc,. In these works the radical and social self for the solution of the problems is uprised by her critical mind, and the conflict between negative consciousness on the reality and radical self is represented on the whole works. The second type is the women image represented by the extreme poverty in the country side. They are showed up in "Extreme Poverty", "A Rich Man, Ak", "The Walnut", "A young Vampire", "The Memorandum of a Mad Woman" etc,. In the shaping of extreme poverty, she would put the stress on its damage and suffering rather pursue its cause. And in the shaping of women's problems, she would reveal women's damage consciousness strongly emphasizing unconditional and illogical suffering only on account of being women. She would not examine the cause of women's problems nor aim the exaltation of women's consciousness. The third type is the wandering charaters who lost their identity in the rapidly changing reality. They are showed up in the "Choeng Hyun-Soo", "B.A.", "A Scenery of Country", and "A Woman" etc,. Paek Shin-Ae criticized the false lives of the intellectuals' who indulged themselves eliticism without grasping their realities. The forth type is the alienated displaced persons under the colonial government. Their persons are showed up in "Kkerei", "Don't Go", "A Friend Went Far" etc,. She revealed the strong criticism on colonized reality which brought forth in miserable lives of ruined people and the increasing displaced persons. Her criticism on the colonized reality throgh the four types of character is tried by the following principles : First, the principle of dualism of conflict structure. Second, the principle of intensification of grief by the destructive structure. Third, the principle of the critical mind by the women's viewpoint. Fourth, the principle of criticism on the social problems by the satire. Through the presented aspects of her critical mind appeared in her short stories with various materials and characters, we can assure that Paek Shin-Ae is a woman writer sensitive to her social reality. However though she sharply noticed her social and women's reality, she failed more or less in the shaping in that she revealed her purpose to expose the strong negative consciousness on the social reality too much in the works. The cause of this limitation is that her short stories were written after the recognition of "problemized reality".
