Descriptions(Languages 2)

This is a novel by Hahn Moo-Sook, published in 1986. It is recognized as a work that emphasizes the conflict between Confucianism and Catholicism, law and religion, historical cause and individual desire, yet sublimating such conflict into the love of humanity through understanding and tolerance.

1986년 출간된 한무숙의 장편소설이다. 유교와 카톨릭, 법과 종교, 역사적 대의와 개인의 욕망 사이의 갈등을 부각시키면서도 이해와 관용의 인간애로 승화시키는 작품이라 평가된다.
