About the Workshop

Workshop participants will study for 6 hours from Monday to Friday during three weeks, and travel historic sites relevant to the text on weekends. English language is exclusively used in lectures and discussions at the workshop.

1) We expect participants to produce English translation of the classical Chinese sources.

2) In addition to the translation, each participant will be obliged to write an introduction to one classical Chinese source of his/her own choice from a list of fifty texts from the Jangseogak Archives.

(Due is six months after the completion of the workshop. The fifty texts will be carefully selected by the scholars in the Archives considering of the participants’ expertise and interest).
