The chosun gateJohnson, William Brian January 1976 (has links)
A work dealing with the American Army of Occupation in Korea during the early post-war years, the novel examines the nature of the relationships between the West and the of seeing as their differences occur in two divergent cultures. The aggressive nature of the West's sense of choice-in-action is shown on every hand to be in conflict with the East's sense of being, a sense of passivity which appears to be more closely in touch with the laws of human growth as these laws are operative in the universe. In developing this theme through the conflict between two cultures, two different approaches to the nature of reality itself begin to emerge.

The Role of Warfare in the Formation of the State in Korea: Historical and Archaeological ApproachesKang, Bong Won, 1954- 06 1900 (has links)
xx, 404 p. : ill. A print copy of this title is available through the UO Libraries under the call number: KNIGHT DS911.72.K36 1995 / This dissertation is concerned with the formation of the Silla Kingdom, a
protohistoric state located in the southeastern portion of the Korean peninsula.
Combining theoretical issues and empirical data concerning state formation, I
present a case study of how one prime mover, warfare, played a role in the
formation of the Silla Kingdom between the first and fifth centuries A.D. Two
hypotheses associated with the significance of warfare were formulated and
tested against both historical and archaeological data.
To examine alternative models about the role of irrigation works and
long-distance exchange in the development of the Silla Kingdom, I analyzed
relevant historical documents, stelae, and selected archaeological data. Both
documentary and archaeological data suggest that irrigation works and long-distance
exchange were not sufficiently influential to claim critical roles in the
emergence of the state in southeastern Korea.
To test hypotheses formulated about the role of warfare, a number of
bronze and iron weapons excavated from burials in southeastern Korea were quantified and analyzed in conjunction with data on wars mentioned in the
historical documents. In particular, an analysis of empirical data on various
kinds of metal weapons that probably were used in battles strongly supports
the premise that warfare was a significant factor in the state formation process
of the Silla Kingdom between the first and fifth centuries. Both historical and
archaeological sources also reveal that there was a continuous local
indigenous development from lower-level sociopolitical stages to higher-level
ones in southeastern Korea, finally dominated by the Silla kingdom.
Furthermore, based upon the results of mortuary analysis, I conclude that the
Silla Kingdom became a state-level society sometime between the middle of
the fourth and the beginning of the fifth centuries during the reign of King
Naemul (356-402 A.D.). / Committee in charge: Dr. C. Melvin Aikens, Chair;

BIBLE WOMEN: EVANGELISM AND CULTURAL TRANSFORMATION IN THE EARLY KOREAN CHURCHLiptak, Yeong Woo 18 June 2015 (has links)
When Protestant missionaries first arrived on the Korean peninsula in the 1880s they encountered religious syncretism being practiced in a socio-cultural environment which prohibited all interaction between the predominantly male missionaries and the local females. To remedy this situation, the women missionaries converted and recruited a small number of indigenous women to augment evangelical outreach to other women. In addition to serving as the catalysts of an unprecedented Christian transformation, these "Bible Women" laid the foundation of a cultural transformation that enlightened Korean women from an oppressive social structure that totally marginalized them.
Through a detailed literature review, this dissertation examines the major religions actively being practiced during the Choson Dynasty and how they affected women. It details the challenges faced by the early missionaries that led them to employ the Bible Women method. Several case studies detail the process of converting, recruiting, and training indigenous women to serve as female evangelists, including the persecution that they suffered for choosing to follow Christ and the enormous impact that they made both spreading the gospel and breaking down social barriers. Finally, a proposal is provided for how this same approach may be employed in evangelical outreach in similar cultural contexts.

Socio-political identity in Chosŏn Korea during the Japanese and Manchu invasions 1567-1637 : barbarians at the gatesQuartermain, Thomas Nile Dawbeny Eubanks January 2016 (has links)
This thesis explores social and political identities in Choson Korea between the years 1567 and 1637, particularly during the Imjin War (1592-1598) and the Manchu Invasions (1627 and 1636-1637). During the Imjin War, the Japanese caused widespread destruction over the entire Korean peninsula and the Ming army entered the country. The Later Jin briefly invaded in 1627 and launched a large scale invasion in 1636. The Manchus overran Choson's feeble defenses and forced Choson to become a vassal state of the Qing Empire. Scholars are at odds over the form of socio-political identity during this period of foreign invasion. Some claim these wars created the 'Korean nation' for the first time, while others contend that no such socio-political concepts could have existed before the twentieth century. However, researchers often use the same philosophical approaches and merely select aspects of certain theorists' frameworks that best support their arguments. Both the theories and historian's methodologies are limited in their explanation of socio-political identity of the premodern Korean past and even more so for the time of the Imjin and Manchu Invasions. My research attempts to solve these theoretical problems by creating a 'fusion of horizons' between past and modern concepts of socio-political identity in order to explore the political and cultural environments of the Choson people before and during the wars (bildung). This is achieved firstly by relying on official government histories and individually written diaries that, together, create a more complete picture of former socio-political identity. Secondly, I propose understanding Choson by looking at the definitions of the king, state, people, culture, history, and foreign world using their own definitions from their own times.
