Korean Tales - Being a collection of stories translated from the Korean folk lore, together with introductory chapters descriptive of Korea

Repeatedly, since returning to the United States, people have asked me, Why dont you write a book on Korea? I have invariably replied that it was not necessary, and referred the inquirers to the large work of Dr. Griffis, entitled Corea, the Hermit Kingdom, which covers the subject in a charming manner. My object in writing this book was to correct the erroneous impressions I have found somewhat prevalentthat the Koreans were a semi-savage people. And believing that the object could be accomplished best in displaying the thought, life, and habits of the people as portrayed in their native lore, I have made these translations, which, while they are so chosen as to cover various phases of life, are not to be considered as especially selected. I also wished to have some means of answering the constant inquiries from all parts of the country concerning Korean life and characteristics. People in Washington have asked me if Korea was an island in the Mediterranean; others [4]have asked if Korea could be reached by rail from Europe; others have supposed that Korea was somewhere in the South Seas, with a climate that enabled the natives to dispense with clothing. I have therefore included two chapters, introductory and descriptive in character, concerning the subjects of the majority of such questions. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
