Poetry. Asian Studies. VOICES IN DIVERSITY: POETS FROM POSTWAR KOREA offers a selection of poems from 37 South Korean poets born in or after 1945, edited and translated by poet Ko Won. The selected poets represent the voice of a nation emerging from Japanese rule; they are witnesses to sweeping political, social and cultural developments who have distilled their experience of a dynamic world into a precise and elegant poetics deeply concerned with modern political realities. Much as with the Middle East, these realities virtually demand a greater acquaintance with the arts and culture of this region, a knowledge which this collection certainly provides. Ko Won has published fourteen books of poetry, is a member of the P.E.N. Center USA West, and directs the Kulmaru Institute of Literature, Los Angeles. https://www.abebooks.com/9780893048853/Voices-Diversity-Poets-Postwar-Korea-0893048852/plp

Many types of poetry, from the classical shijo to free-verse forms are represented. Many subjects are covered, from love and the love of nature, Buddhist and Confucian traditions, the search for transcendence (which is where the book's title comes from), and contemporary political poetry.

Korea's modern poetry is filled with many different voices and styles, subjects and views, moves and countermoves, yet it still remains relatively unknown outside of Korea itself. This is in part because the Korean language, a rich medium for poetry, has been ranked among the most difficult for English speakers to learn. The Columbia Anthology of Modern Korean Poetry is the only up-to-date representative gathering of Korean poetry from the twentieth century in English, far more generous in its selection and material than previous anthologies. It presents 228 poems by 34 modern Korean poets, including renowned poets such as So Chongju and Kim Chiha. https://www.abebooks.com/9780231111294/Columbia-Anthology-Modern-Korean-Poetry-0231111290/plp

PARK NOHAE / 박노해 / 2024 / -

This translation of Park Nohae's first collection of poems, Dawn of Labor, could not arrive at a more propitious moment. For this "faceless poet," this "enemy of the state," whose writings earned him a death sentence and years in solitary confinement, is not only a legendary figure in Korean letters and society but a prophet of global liberation--a man dedicated to the proposition that a community of kindred poetic spirits can inspire social justice. If the plight of factory workers makes him "think about the eradication/ of the Korean language," it also leads him to "dedicate these words, like a round of drinks, to [his] working brothers and sisters, who live and act diligently without losing hope and laughter." These poems clarify what we most need to know, wherever we may find ourselves in the world.--Christopher Merrill, author of Self-Portrait with Dogwood source: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dawn-Labor-Hawaii-Studies-Korea/dp/0824894049?&linkCode=sl1&tag=lonkorlin-21&linkId=6c99c8c0ff7a5a9e0df41d8d5ef8d99e&language=en_GB&ref_=as_li_ss_tl

কোরিয়ার কবিতা" বইয়ের পেছনের কভারে লেখা: কোরিয়ার আধুনিক কবিতা যাত্রা শুরু করে বিশ শতকের প্রথম দিকে। এই শতকের অস্থির রাজনৈতিক পরিস্থিতি ছন্দ আর গানের রােমান্টিক ধারাকে সরিয়ে দিয়ে কবিতায় এক নতুন মাত্রা নিয়ে আসে। ১৯১০ থেকে ১৯৪৫ সময়কালের জাপানি আগ্রাসন, দ্বিতীয় বিশ্বযুদ্ধ, দুই কোরিয়ার যুদ্ধ (১৯৫০-১৯৫৩) এবং ১৯৬০ সালের বিপ্লবী আন্দোলন কোরিয়ার আধুনিক কবিতাকে প্রভাবিত করেছে ভীষণভাবে। এই সব আলােড়ন ও পরিবর্তনের ধাক্কায় কোরিয়ার আধুনিক কবিতা আত্মস্থ করে নেয় নানা বিষয় ও মতাদর্শ, নানা শৈলী ও প্রকরণ। বিশ শতকে কোরিয়াকে যে সামাজিক, রাজনৈতিক ও বৈশ্বিক বাস্তবতার ভিতর দিয়ে যেতে হয়েছে তা তুলে ধরতে গিয়ে কবিতা অনেক সময় মুষড়ে পড়ে বাস্তবের আবেগী বর্ণনায়। ঠিক এর বিপরীত দিকও আছে। কোরিয়া এবং চীন ও জাপানের প্রাচীন দর্শনের মরমি ঔদাসীন্য আর পশ্চিমী দর্শনের নৈর্ব্যক্তিক ও ব্যক্তিক জীবনবােধের সারাৎসার মিলেমিশে আসে কোরিয়ার কবিতায়। এই তিন ধারার মিলনে কোরিয়ার কবিতা হয়ে ওঠে নিজেদের মতাে আলাদা ও অনন্য। source : https://www.rokomari.com/book/200856/korear-kobita
