The Book Of Korean Poetry

Traces Korean poetry from the pre-Shilla (57 BC - AD 668)era to the end of Korea's golden poetry period in the Koryo (935-1392) dynasty. There are two poetry traditions in Korea: hanshi (poems by Korean poets in Chinese characters) and vernacular poems, which are invariably songs. This book presents 150 poems divided in five sections.
