Hardback. Condition: New. Vestiges of the Three Kingdoms of Ancient Korea (Samguk yusa) is the first annotated English translation of one of the most important premodern Korean historical texts. One of only two surviving works on the Three Kingdoms period (57 BCE-668) and Greater Silla (668-936), the Samguk yusa is a rich collection of historical, supernatural, and mythical stories, including one of the earliest surviving narratives of Tan'gun, who in modern times came to be regarded as the mythical or legendary progenitor of the Korean people.Compiled primarily in classical Chinese during the Koryo period (918-1392), the Samguk yusa is known for its idiosyncratic structure and eclectic content. Although strongly Buddhist in orientation and generally assumed to have been compiled in large part by the celebrated monk Iryon (1206-1289), the work also encompasses Confucianism, geomancy, secular history, and folklore. It was not highly regarded during the Choson period (1392-1910) but re-emerged in the twentieth century as a Korean foundational text. Today the Samguk yusa is celebrated as a national treasure of native Korean tradition and heritage and continues to play a crucial role in forming Korean identity north and south of the border. References to it are commonplace in contemporary Korea, with new translations and adaptations of its narratives frequently published.This annotated translation, the result of many years' work by Frits Vos, a pioneer of Korean studies in Europe, and later colleagues, includes a critical introduction that illuminates the text's history, reception, and broader historical context and offers an analytical overview of the themes and literary strategy of the work. …

Hardcover, 175 pages, English, 305 x 250 mm, Fine copy. illustrated with coloured illustrations, ISBN 9789053250525. In enkele decennia ontwikkelde Korea zich van agrarische maatschappij tot een van 's werelds succesrijkste industri?le economie?n. Maar naast het jachtige stedelijke leven hebben het landelijke leven en de natuur hun serene schoonheid behouden en is het volk trouw gebleven aan de culturele tradities. In dit boek wordt een uniek beeld gegeven van dit in het Westen nog vrijwel onbekend land. nEn quelques d?vennies, la Cor?e est pass?e d'une soci?t? agraire ? une des plus fructueuses ?conomies industrielles du monde. Mais aux c?t?s de la fi?vreuse vie citadine, la vie rurale et la nature ont su garder leur beaut? sereine et le peuple est rest? fid?le ? ses traditions culturelles. Ce livre donne une image incomparable de ce pays encore si peu connu de l'Occident. nOver the span of only a few decades, Korea has transformed itself from an agrarian society into one of the world's most successful industrial economies. But despite today's frenetic urban pace, Korea's natural environment retains its serene beauty and its people have remained true to their cultural traditions. This book offers a unique view of this too little known emerging giant. 0 g.…
