Hello,This is the Academic Education Department of the Kyujanggak Institute for Korean Studies.We are pleased to announce the upcoming 7th Author's Colloquium and kindly request your interest and participation.

  • Date and Time: Thursday, November 21, 2024, 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM
  • Venue: Kyujanggak Institute for Korean Studies (Building 103), Main Conference Room (Room 444)

  • Discussant: Na Jong-hyun (Seoul Women's University)

The book 《Wijung Cheoksa》(Academy of Korean Studies Press, 2023), which we will examine together in this Author's Colloquium, attempts a comprehensive and holistic approach to Wijung Cheoksa, which has been studied mainly focusing on individuals and schools of thought. We invite you to an interesting journey that three-dimensionally examines the stages of change in Wijung Cheoksa associated with various schools of thought and historical contexts such as Western Learning, treaties, reform policies, civilization and enlightenment, and restoration of national sovereignty, as well as the responses and trends of 19th-century Confucian scholars in this process.
