Book Description
Korea Between Empires chronicles the development of a Korean national consciousness. It focuses on two critical periods in Korean history and asks how key concepts and symbols were created and integrated into political programs to create an original Korean understanding of national identity, the nation-state, and nationalism. Looking at the often-ignored questions of representation, narrative, and rhetoric in the construction of public sentiment, Andre Schmid traces the genealogies of cultural assumptions and linguistic turns evident in Korea's major newspapers during the social and political upheavals of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Newspapers were the primary location for the re-imagining of the nation, enabling readers to move away from the conceptual framework inherited from a Confucian and dynastic past toward a nationalist vision that was deeply rooted in global ideologies of capitalist modernity. As producers and disseminators of knowledge about the nation, newspapers mediated perceptions of Korea's precarious place amid Chinese and Japanese colonial ambitions and were vitally important to the rise of a nationalist movement in Korea.

Book Description
Kim explores the dynamic relationship between Korean and Japanese Buddhists in the years leading up to the Japanese annexation of Korea. Conventional narratives portray Korean Buddhists as complicit in the religious annexation of the peninsula, but this view fails to account for the diverse visions, interests, and strategies that drove both sides.

Book Description
Jun Uchida draws on previously unused materials in multi-language archives to uncover the obscured history of the Japanese civilians who settled in Korea between 1876 and 1945, with particular focus on the first generation of pioneers between the 1910s and 1930s who actively mediated Japan's colonial presence on the Korean peninsula.

Book Description
"Passionate, cantankerous, and fascinating. Rather like Korea itself."--Nicholas D. Kristof, New York Times Book Review Korea has endured a "fractured, shattered twentieth century," and this updated edition brings Bruce Cumings's leading history of the modern era into the present. The small country, overshadowed in the imperial era, crammed against great powers during the Cold War, and divided and decimated by the Korean War, has recently seen the first real hints of reunification. But positive movements forward are tempered by frustrating steps backward. In the late 1990s South Korea survived its most severe economic crisis since the Korean War, forcing a successful restructuring of its political economy. Suffering through floods, droughts, and a famine that cost the lives of millions of people, North Korea has been labeled part of an "axis of evil" by the George W. Bush administration and has renewed its nuclear threats. On both sides Korea seems poised to continue its fractured existence on into the new century, with potential ramifications for the rest of the world.

Book Description
In 37 BC, Jumong, posthumously titled Dongmyeongseong, laid the foundation for Goguryeo, later centralized by King Taejo. Under King Sosurim's reign in 372, Goguryeo embraced Buddhism as its official religion, marking a significant cultural shift. Goguryeo, also known as Goryeo or Kogury, played a pivotal role in shaping Korean history, ultimately lending its name to the modern-day nation. Throughout the third and fourth centuries, Goguryeo faced territorial struggles with Chinese and Xianbei forces, experiencing both victories and setbacks. The Goguryeo–Wei War of 242 saw Goguryeo challenging Chinese authority, leading to reprisals that temporarily weakened its grip on certain regions. However, subsequent invasions by Goguryeo into Chinese territories, coupled with strategic advancements, solidified its dominance in the Korean peninsula. In the 5th century, Goguryeo reached its zenith, emerging as a dominant force in East Asia under the leadership of Gwanggaeto the Great and his successor, Jangsu. Their conquests extended Goguryeo's influence into vast territories, including Manchuria, Inner Mongolia, and parts of Russia. This period marked a golden age for Goguryeo, characterized by unprecedented military prowess and territorial expansion. Under Jangsu's rule, Goguryeo underwent significant political and economic development, further enhancing its institutional frameworks. Goguryeo's militaristic ethos was exemplified in its conflicts with various Chinese dynasties, notably the Goguryeo–Sui War, where it defeated a formidable enemy, contributing to the downfall of the Sui dynasty.

Book Description
This book traces the historical and theological development of the Holy Spirit movement in Korea through six successive periods. These periods are characterized by repentance and revival (1900-1920), persecution and suffering under Japanese occupation (1920-1940), confusion and division (1940-1960), explosive revival in which the Pentecostal movement played a major role in the rapid growth of Korean churches (1960-1980), the movement's reaching out to all denominations (1980-2000), and the new context's demanding the Holy Spirit movement to open new horizons in its mission engagement (2000-). The volume also discusses the relationship between this movement and other religions such as shamanism, and looks forward to further engagement with issues of concern in the larger society.
