A Family of No Prominence: The Descendants of Pak Tŏkhwa and the Birth of Modern Korea
ISBN: 9780804788762 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Koreans are known for their keen interest in genealogy and inherited ancestral status. Yet today's ordinary Korean would be hard pressed to explain the whereabouts of ancestors before the twentieth century. With A Family of No Prominence, Eugene Y. Park gives us a remarkable account of a nonelite family, that of Pak Tŏkhwa and his descendants (which includes the author). Spanning the early modern and modern eras over three centuries (1590-1945), this narrative of one family of the chungin class of people is a landmark achievement. What we do know of the chungin, or...

Between Dreams and Reality: The Military Examination in Late Chosŏn Korea, 1600-1894
ISBN: 9780674025028 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 273 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. From the mid-seventeenth to the mid-nineteenth century, millions of Korean men from all walks of life trained in the arts of war to prepare not for actual combat but to sit for the state military examination ("mukwa"). Despite this widespread interest, only for a small minority did passing the test lead to appointment as a military official. Why, then, did so many men aspire to the "mukwa"? Eugene Y. Park argues that the "mukwa" was not only the state's primary instrument for recruiting aristocrats as new members to the military bureaucracy but also a means by which the ruling elite...
