Scènes de vie en Corée
Un essai d'interprétation
Book for french speakers
Title translation :
Scenes of everyday life in Korea
|
"This book is a mine of useful informations, a source of reflection often much more
richer than many academic theses and scholarly articles
because the author knows how to present them with their meaning and
context and because the reading is always exciting, the
narrative lively, fun and easy, free and
of a great honesty. It is a journey into
Korea in its very authentic everyday life :
joy, anguish, a visceral vitality that goes
sometimes with a kind of Baudelairian spleen as expressed in music. [...] Reading this book is highly recommendable
because of its approach that ignores all
conventions and cliches, but also for issues
it raises on the world of today - Korea in
itself, Korea as an exemple, Korea
as mirror and a question." (excerpts from the preface of Pierre Cambon, Curator of the Korean collections at Musee Guimet, Paris) New Titles
