    Lee Dongju / 이동주 / 2005 / KDC구분 > Arts

    The Beauty of Old Korean Paintings, originally written in Korean under the subtitle A History and An Appreciation of Traditional Korean Paintings, began as an illustrated lecture by Lee Dongju (1917-1997), the eminent Korean author and art historian and Professor Emeritus at  the Seoul National University. The book follows the format of his slide lecture and brings into English this passionate connoisseur's acute, entertaining and at times uncomfortably frank observations on the subject of Korean art and artists. The Beauty of Old Korean Paintings offers a wealth of information readily cross-referenced to Korean, Chinese and Japanese sources while preserving Professor Lee's authentic voice and the value of his original work as an authoritative text on Korean painting. True to Professor Lee's intent, the book evokes interest in the whole gamut of Korean art as well as Korean artists, aesthetics and history.     Source: http://www.abebooks.com/9781872843896/Beauty-Old-Korean-Paintings-History-1872843891/plp

    La poesía coreana es poco conocida en el mundo de habla hispana. La antología de poesía coreana, antigua y moderna, que aquí nos ofrece el doctor Yong-Tae Min, cubre en gran medida esta necesidad de conocimiento y nos ofrece un amplio y variado panorama histórico de los principales autores y estilos. Sin pretender ser exhaustiva, sí es bastante representativa de las voces de este "lejano oriente" que cada vez está más cercano. A través del océano Pacífico se está construyendo un puente cultural con obras como ésta, que aproximan dos continentes hermanos, América y Asia, salvando el difícil obstáculo de las diferentes lingüísticas y culturales y rescatando lo escencial: el convivio a través de la palabra poética.
