  • James Scarth Gale (1867–1937): A Christian Engagement with Buddhism

    Open Access•Gregory N Evon•ARTICLE•Acta Koreana•2024

    This article analyzes how the Canadian Presbyterian missionary James Scarth Gale (1867–1937) developed an interest in and respect for Buddhism during the later stages of his career in Korea during the Japanese Colonial Period (1910–45). Gale’s positive attitude toward Buddhism marked him as something of an anomaly among his peers and was at least partly an outcome of his study of Literary Sinitic (Hanmun), something that allowed him to understand…

  • Tobacco, God, and Books: The Perils of Barbarism in Eighteenth-Century Korea

    Open Access•Gregory N Evon•ARTICLE•The Journal of Asian Studies•2014•References: 22

    Late eighteenth-century East Asia witnessed similar events with the Qianlong emperor's (r. 1736-96) literary inquisition in China, King Chŏngjo's (r. 1776-1800) fight against heterodoxy in Korea, and Matsudaira Sadanobu's (1759-1829) Ban on Heterodoxy (Igaku no kin, 1790) in Japan. As is well known, Qianlong sought to destroy anti-Manchu writings, whereas Matsudaira sought to impose order by mandating the neo-Confucian orthodoxy of Zhu Xi (1130-1…

  • Korea's Aristocratic Moods: Re-examining Chos[obreve]n Social and Political History

    Gregory N Evon•ARTICLE•Asian Studies Review•2011•Cited by: 1

    Despite the vast influence of “Chinese culture” on Korea, the Chos[obreve]n dynasty (1392–1910) was a distinct cultural sphere governed by its own internal logic that centred on the aristocracy. Over the past twenty years, the importance of this fact has received emphasis in detailed studies by Deuchler (1992 Deuchler, Martina. 1992. The Confucian transformation of Korea: A study of society and ideology, Cambridge, MA and London: Council on East …

  • Eroticism and Buddhism in Han Yongun's Your Silence

    Gregory N Evon•ARTICLE•Korean studies•2000•References: 1

    Han Yongun (1879-1944) is chiefly remembered as a participant in the March First Independence Movement of 1919 and as the author of Your Silence. For these reasons he holds an important place within Koreans' collective memory of their nation's troubled modern history. Although much has been written about him and Your Silence, little attention has been given to the eroticism in the work. This article offers a perspective on the collection's erotic…
