商品簡介
Focusing on the period during which Korea was under Japanese colonial domination, from the turn of the 20th century to the late 1930s, Hyun (Korean studies, York U., Toronto) investigates correlations between the translation of foreign works into Korean and new forms of writing by and about women. Her central thesis is that periods of changes in writing systems and increases in translation have also seen changes in representations of women in written works.
