 In Her Shadow: "Woman" in Modern Korean History, Literature and Film

 Dr. Mi-Ryong Shim, EALC

 Current Korea Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at the Korea Institute

 Class Meets Monday 1-3 PM, with additional film screenings TBD

 Half-course in EALC, Spring Term 2014

 This inter-disciplinary course explores major issues in modern Korean history through the reoccurring and shifting trope of "woman". We will consider some of the social, cultural, and historical phenomena of 20th and 21st century Korea where primary actors have been women. In addition, we will examine how figures of women have been deployed in literary works and films to narrate diverse issues, such as possibilities of mass politics, colonial and national identities, and social anxieties over industrialization.

 More info and the course syllabus may be found on Harvard i-sites.
