Leiden University, The Netherlands, 4-8 October 2010
Within the framework of the research project “History as Social Process: unconventional historiographies of Korea,” sponsored by the Academy of Korean Studies, the Korean Studies Department of Leiden University, The Netherlands, will organize a one-week intensive course for graduate students on the various ways representations of history are created, maintained or changed through novels, poetry, films, television dramas, etc., which interact in complex patterns with the historiography of professional historians and public opinion.
One part of the research project is the e-journal Korean Histories. Please refer to www.historyassocialprocess.org for the particulars of the research project. Faculty members of the research project are Professor Boudewijn Walraven, Dr Koen De Ceuster, Dr Remco Breuker, and postdoctoral fellow Jungshim Lee.
The theme of this year’s masterclass is forging and forgeries.
