Figuring Korean Futures: Children's Literature in Modern Korea by Dafna Zur (review)

Abstract

Published by the Harvard-Yenching Institute HJAS 80.1 (2020): 300–304 details of fiction texts, particularly in the images and stories of domestic space. With masterful close readings and an impressive command of the archive, Yang draws out these details and gives her reader a clear and convincing case for researching colonial contexts through an examination of the gendering of literary narrative.
