Naming the Local: Medicine, Language, and Identity in Korea since the Fifteenth Century by Soyoung Suh (review)

Abstract

Published by the Harvard-Yenching Institute HJAS 80.1 (2020): 272–278 by her ability to situate the reception of Chinese medical writings and terms within different national contexts and to conduct multilingual research in classical Chinese, modern Chinese, and Japanese. It is my hope that future generations of scholars will follow Smith’s lead and engage in imaginative storytelling and border crossing.
