  • KORN W4200x. Modern Korean Literature. 3 pts.

    This course engages in a critical study of representative Korean literary texts of the twentieth century. Texts are drawn from both the Japanese colonial period (1910-1945) and the post-liberation period (1945-present). Reading of literary works are supplemented with theoretical texts and recent scholarship on modern Korea. Discussion of works written in the colonial period, considers the formation of "modern literature," the emergence of rival literary camps, representations of gender, nationalism, assimilation, and resistance against Japanese rule. Topics central to the Korean postcolonial experience include national division, war, the emergence of women writers, rapid industrialization, and authoritarianism.
