(02)743-3097 ISBN 89-303-5001-1 Preface Though Korean literature has been receiving increasing attention in the Western academic world, regrettably there is no systematic introduction in English. Although the continuous translation of novels and poems and introductory essays about them will be helpful. The comprehensive history of Korean literature must be made available in English. But I think the most important task is to provide a book to clarify the significance of Korean literary study based upon Korean classical heritage. Such is the intension of this book. Korean literature is precious not because it adopts well the Western influence in the modem era, but because it played an active role in developing culture during Korea's history and it presented a typical example of the growth of a national literature, in the East Asian or in the world scope. Both sides, intermingling each other, present many important theoretical problems, which have been the themes of my 30 books written in Korean. As it is not easy to offer such voluminous achievements to Western academic world, here I present some summaries of important points. As indicated by the title, the main point of my research is to see the Korean literature in cultural context and comparative perspective. 1 think the results, even in these brief sketches, will arouse wide interest among those who search for new ideas to reconsider the world literary history as a cultural history, beyond Eurocentric view. I thank Mr. Emanuel Pastreich, a Ph. D. candidate of Harvard University. During his stay in Korea,1 fortunately received his valuable assistance in reading English proofs of many parts of this book.
