Modeled after the classic "Sources of Chinese Tradition, Sources
of Japanese Tradition, " and "Sources of Indian Tradition, " this
collection of seminal primary readings in the social, intellectual,
and religious traditions of Korea from the sixteenth century to the
present day lays the groundwork for understanding Korean
civilization and demonstrates how leading intellectuals and public
figures in Korea have looked at life, the traditions of their
ancestors, and the world they lived in.
The selections range from the mid- and late Chos?n dynasty in
the sixteenth century, through the encounter with the West and
imperialist Japan in the late ninteenth and early twentieth
centuries, to the political and cultural events in South and North
Korea since 1945 -- ending with President Kim Taejung's 1998
inaugural address.
