Oriental perspective on Shakespearean themes, drawing on Eastern
philosophical, religious and ethical traditions. Korea has
experienced a flowering of interest in Shakespeare over the last
thirty years, bringing a valuable change of perspective to the
study of Shakespeare's plays. In these seven previously unpublished
essays, Joo-Hyon Kim offers fresh and stimulating insights into
well-known texts, using concepts of Oriental philosophy, religion
and ethics, and explores various aspects of Shakespeare's plays in
relation to cultural differences. His work embraces Confucian
principles, Noh drama, Shamanism, Chinese folk-tales, and Korean
fiction, demonstrating the different traditions which shape the
reception of Western literature in an Eastern culture. Fascinating
in their own right, these essays thus provide a unique lens of
viewing a world-famous group of plays, bridging the gap between
East and West. JOO-HYON KIMis Professor Emeritus of English
Literature at Soong-Sil University, Seoul.
