Description

First published in 1996, this comprehensive history explores Korea's rich cultural and geographical heritage, examining how the nation's distinctive landscape - characterised by an eastern backbone of sharp mountains with westward-running ridges and wooded hills - has shaped its poetry, art, and the dreams of its exiles. The text contextualises Korea's unique temperate climate, marked by cold dry winters and hot rainy summers, within the broader framework of East Asian geography and environmental conditions. This Routledge publication provides essential insights into Korea's multicultural and social scientific dimensions, offering readers a foundational understanding of the historical forces, natural environment, and cultural identity that have defined the Korean peninsula throughout its complex past.
