Written by Eugene Y. Park, the book draws on original-language sources and the latest synthesis of East Asian and Western-language scholarship to provide an insightful account. This book expands the limited English-language discussions on pre-modern Korea, offering rigorous and compelling analyses of Korea's modernization while discussing daily life, ethnic minorities, LGBTQ history, and North Korean history, which are often overlooked in Korea surveys.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOverall, Park is able to break new ground on questions and debates that have been central to the field of Korean studies since its inception.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 660g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 153 x 228 x 30 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781503629844\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eugene Y.
