"Res Gestae Christiani: My Time as the President of the Cambridge
University Korean Society 2002-2003" by Christian Kim is a
heart-warming real-life account of the struggle of Korean students
at Cambridge University to empower themselves against all odds. At
the helm of this endeavor is Christian Kim, who was the President
of Cambridge University Korean Society from 2002 to 2003. Christian
Kim, a Ph.D. candidate in Hebrew, Jewish, and Early Christian
Studies, sets out major objectives to achieve Korean empowerment.
Firstly, Christian Kim seeks to disseminate Korean culture and help
non-Koreans understand the Korean experience. Thus, Kim invites one
of the major literary figures from South Korea to discuss Korean
literature. Kim also invited the Ambassador of South Korea, who is
now the primary expert on North Korea for the South Korean
government, for a special lecture, sponsored together with the
Centre for International Studies of Cambridge University. Besides
his efforts to help others to better understand Koreans, Christian
Kim spearheaded many "firsts" for Koreans in Cambridge University.
Kim organized the first ever Cambridge University Korean Society
Formal Hall at Jesus College, Cambridge. This is a historic event
in the history of Cambridge University and the history of the
Korean people in the United Kingdom. Furthermore, Christian Kim
organized the first ever all-Chinese get together. This is a
historic event for the Chinese people of Cambridge University and
an important step in the history of China. Another critically
important "first" was the joint program between Cambridge
University Korean Society and the Interdisciplinary Japanese Forum.
It is the first time in that a major Korean Society in higher
education in the European Union sponsored a joint program with the
Japanese society at the university. It has historic ramifications.
This book contains much important documentation for the study of
British history, the history of the Korean people, the history of
Chinese people, the history of Japanese people, and the history of
higher education. This is a book that serious historians cannot go
without. As it is written in a very readable way, this book will be
of interest to everyone who has any interest in British history,
Cambridge University, Asian history, and sociology.
