Collected here are translations into English of six classic stories
from colonial Korea (1910-1945) as well as the time of liberation
(1945-1948). Each piece takes a different perspective on a defining
process in Korean history-the colonization and modernization under
Japanese rule. The volume demonstrates the rich variety of
registers, settings, styles, and thematic concerns that
characterized the literary production of early modern Korea.The
editor's introduction places the collection in the context of
modern Korean literary history, and short biographies precede each
story. In its judicious selection of classic texts, On the Eve of
the Uprising and Other Stories from Colonial Korea offers an
unprecedented opportunity to explore the intellectual complexity
and artistic richness of colonial Korean literature.
