By drawing on literary works that depict interactions between the colonized and the colonizer during Japanese rule over Korea (1910-45), this course examines the complicated terrain of day-to-day life in a subjugated land under foreign rule. In order to appreciate the implications of the literary works for examining the issue of colonialism and to understand the stories’ historical context, students will also read critical essays on the colonial relationship and a history book on Japanese Assimilation Policies in Colonial Korea. The course aims to introduce students both to important literary works about Korea’s colonial experience and to the fields of colonial and postcolonial studies in East Asian context.
