Korean Literature Through the Korean Wave

Korean Literature Through the Korean Wave

Korean Literature Through the Korean Wave engages with the rising interest in both the Korean Wave and Korean language learning by incorporating Korean Wave cultural content especially K-dramas films and songs to underline and support the teaching of Korean literature. It combines both premodern and modern texts including poetry novels philosophical treatises and even comics to showcase the diversity of Korean literature. Particular care has been taken to include the voices of those marginalised in the often male elite-dominated discourse on Korean literature. In particular this book also distinguishes itself by extending the usual breadth of what is considered modern Korean literature up until the present day including texts published as recently as 2017. Many of these texts are very relevant for recent discourse in Korean affairs such as the obsession with physical appearance the #MeToo movement and multiculturalism. This textbook is aimed at B1-B2 level and Intermediate-Mid students of Korean. On the one hand the textbook introduces students to seeing beyond Korean literature as a monolithic entity giving a taste of its wonderful richness and diversity. On the other hand it provides an entry point into discussions on Korean contemporary society in which the text (and associated media extracts) provides the catalyst for more in-depth analysis and debate.

Sociolinguistics of the Korean Wave Hallyu and Soft Power

Sociolinguistics of the Korean Wave Hallyu and Soft Power

Samosir and Wee examine how the immensely popular Korean Wave (K-wave) also known as Hallyu is wielded as soft power through the use of communication for persuasion and attraction on the global stage. The Korean Wave refers to the global spread and popularity of South Korean culture particularly its pop music (K-pop) serialised dramas (K-dramas) and films (K-films). Given the South Korean government’s involvement in providing funding and publicity the Korean Wave raises interesting sociolinguistic questions about the relationship between artistry and citizenship the use of social media in facilitating the consumption of cultural products and ultimately the nature of soft power itself. Studies of soft power have tended to come from the field of international relations. This book shows that sociolinguistics actually has a number of tools in its conceptual arsenal – such as indexicality stance taking affect and styling – that can shed light on the Korean Wave as a form of soft power. As the first book-length sociolinguistic analysis of the Korean Wave and soft power this book demonstrates how K-pop K-dramas and K-films have been able to encourage in consumers an anthropological stance towards all things Korean. This volume will be of particular interest to students and scholars in sociolinguistics political science cultural studies and Korean studies.

The Politics of Korean Language Textbooks in the Two Koreas Nationalism Ideologies and Education

The Politics of Korean Language Textbooks in the Two Koreas Nationalism Ideologies and Education

This book investigates the politics embedded in the Korean-language textbooks utilised between 1895 and 2019 within the context of one Korea (pre-colonial and colonial eras) the divided Koreas and an ethnic Korean group residing in Japan (Chongryon). By analysing the inclusions and omissions from Korean-language the author successfully highlights the impact of Korean politics making clear how rulers have attempted to control their citizens and legitimize their rule by using primary school Korean-language textbooks as a medium for political education and inculcation. It succinctly displays how different visions of ‘ideal citizenship’ have been presented in Korea and traces the resulting shift in views towards neighbouring nations as a result identifying how different rival countries were demonized at different times. This chapter also shows some consistent omissions such as the lower classes and marginalized individuals within their respective nations. Presenting recommendations for potential improvements of the content of future textbooks this study will be of interest to students of Asian Studies Post-colonial Studies Critical Curriculum Studies Critical Discourse Studies and Korean Studies. | The Politics of Korean Language Textbooks in the Two Koreas Nationalism Ideologies and Education

Korean Film and History

Korean Film and History

Cinema has become a battleground upon which history is made—a major mass medium of the twentieth century dealing with history. The re-enactments of historical events in film straddle reality and fantasy documentary and fiction representation and performance entertainment and education. This interdisciplinary book examines the relationship between film and history and the links between historical research and filmic (re-)presentations of history with special reference to South Korean cinema. As with all national film industries Korean cinema functions as a medium of inventing national history and identity and also establishing their legitimacy—in both forgetting the past and remembering history. Korean films also play a part in forging cultural collective memory. Korea as a colonised and divided nation clearly adopted different approaches to the filmic depiction of history compared to colonial powers such as Western or Japanese cinema. The Colonial Period (1910–1945) and Korean War (1950–1953) draw particular attention as they have been major topics shaping the narrative of nation in North and South Korean films. Exploring the changing modes impacts and functions of screen images dealing with history in Korean cinema this book will be of huge interest to students and scholars of Korean history film media and cultural studies. | Korean Film and History
