Abstract
society, such as the effect of the invention of the Korean alphabet on textual communication, the Korean appropriation of NeoConfucianism, the political agency of nonofficial local elites, and the interrelationship between the state and the sarim. Its careful examination of the materiality of letters, based on extensive archival research sprinkled through the chapters, calls attention to their physical form and effect on the semantic and functional values of the text. I recommend this book for scholars who are interested in textual culture, the history of communication and technology, and Korean studies.
