Guest edited by Christopher P. Hanscom (UCLA) and Dafna Zur (Stanford University), the fall 2018 thematic issue of the Journal of Korean Studies, “Science and Literature in North and South Korea,” offers a groundbreaking framework for approaching the multilayered relations between literature and science both in Korea and in other sites in the modern world. Paying particular attention to the ways in which literature and science share a linguistic medium, the nine articles that comprise this thematic issue show how literature and science interconnect as modes of understanding and perceiving the world. This issue is a must-read not only for specialists in modern Korean literature but also for scholars of modern Korea working across all disciplines in the humanities and social sciences.

Publication of the Journal of Korean Studies is made possible by a generous grant from the Academy of Korean Studies. For more information on JKS, please...
