Intellectuals in Between : Koreans in a Changing World, 1850 to 1945, Hardback Book

Intellectuals in Between : Koreans in a Changing World, 1850 to 1945 Hardback

Part of the Research on Korea series

Hardback

Description

During the decades around 1900, Koreans experienced a world falling apart and the need to quickly build a new one.

Intellectuals naturally took centre stage in this era of epistemic paradigm change.

This book is devoted to the study of the life and ideas of some of these intellectuals, focussing on how they dealt with the challenges of their times.

Where did their respective moral and intellectual stances lead them, and what were the social, economic, and political constraints that bounded their trajectories?

Their life stories provide micro-historical insights into a period that has been formative for modern and contemporary Korea, and illustrate the intellectual ferment inherent in an era of crisis and transition.
