This is not a pipe (Korean Edition)

michel-foucault

Korean was originally published by the Routledge in 1994 as one of the Series planned by Bernard Comrie. The Series covers those languages such as Abkhaz, Kobon, Mangarayi, Tamil, West Greenlandic, Japanese, Rumanian, Modern Greek, Amele, Basque, Gulf Arabic, Kannada, Finnish, Catalan, Punjabi, Maori, and Korean, representing diverse language typologies and families. 
Under the expert leadership of Comrie, a descriptive guideline is prepared and provided for standardized and parallel description of those select languages in the Series. 
This particular volume has been sold out immediately after its publication due to highest demand among readers including researchers, instructors, and students of Korean language and linguistics. 
Its standardized description on grammatical characteristics, concepts and terminologies of Korean language from a perspective of the Korean as one of major world languages serves as a key factor positioning this volume as a must-have reference grammar book for Korean language.

Power Up Korean Vocabulary is designed for beginning to intermediate level Korean learners who want to solidify their foundation of Korean by enlarging their vocabulary in order to have more confidence using Korean. This book is ideal for the following students: Students who are in a beginning-level Korean class. Students who are in an intermediate-level class, but are often still confused when using basic words. Students who are preparing for the TOPIK (Test of Proficiency in Korean). Students who have studied Korean for a while and want to solidify their foundational knowledge of Korean. This book is not a simple Korean-English glossary, but rather provides much richer essential information for understanding words along with their variations in collocations. This book presents 500 essential words, with an emphasis on those most commonly used in beginning-level textbooks and the TOPIK beginning-level vocabulary list. We grouped 20 random words in each unit, which learners can study at one time without too much effort. When vocabulary acquisition takes place, learners achieve multiple layers of lexical information that consists of the association between forms and meanings. Thus the most common meanings and usages of each word in this book s 25 lessons are accompanied by example sentences, grammatical information, cultural information, and related words as well as morphophonemic information, such as Chinese origin, pronunciation, and conjugation patterns. This book offers further helpful advice about the most common mistakes we have encountered in student work.

Power Up Korean Vocabulary

Through the stories presented in this book, we learn that Korean language (and Korean studies) programs in American higher institutions have gone through significant transformations in the past several decades. Much has been accomplished in terms of not only quantity but also quality, in spite of a wide array of challenges, both pedagogical and non-pedagogical alike. Korea s strong economy and improved global image, generous and strategic funding support from Korean government agencies, and the recent Hallyu wave have all worked favorably for the development of Korean programs. At the same time, enthusiastic support of many students, dedication of faculty in the Korean programs, vision of school administrators, and emphasis on foreign language education by the American government were other factors that contributed to the current state of Korean programs today.

Korean Philosophy: Sources and Interpretations

Sa-soon Youn

Philosophy

This book is a translation and study of the poetry of the ninth-century Korean literary icon Ch oe Ch iw n, who has long been celebrated as the founding father of classical literature in Korea. Ch oe s literary legacy was characterized by his ability to cross both cultural and ideological boundaries. ... Ch oe Ch iw n was a versatile author who produced writings of many forms about a variety of subjects. His career as a civil official demanded composition of administrative and political writings, including memorials, reports and letters. Following his retirement, he concentrated his energy on religious pursuits, and wrote extensively on Buddhist subjects, particularly biographies of renowned Silla Buddhist masters. From these official and religious writings we get a glimpse of the society and culture in which Ch oe s life unfolded. But it is in his poetry that we encounter the person Ch oe Ch iw n, his hopes and dreams, his joys and sorrows, his social activities and innermost thoughts. In order to sketch Ch oe s changing life and person, in this chapter we will trace his poetic footprints by looking at some of the general themes that appear in his poetry.
