  • Best loved poems of Korea
    English(English) Book Available

    Byun Yeongro et al / 변영로 et al / 1984 / -

    It is hoped that the present volume gives some idea about modern Korean poetry in terms of subject matter, themes and modes of expression. The majority of the poems have been taken from among the most widely read and best-loved poems. The present book, however, cannot claim to present a satisfactory cross-section of modern Korean poetry. Among other things, the poems presented in volume where chosen largely on the basis of the degree to which individual poems rendered themselves to translation into the English language and partly on the personal preferences of the translator (from the Introduction). https://www.amazon.com/Best-Loved-Poems-Korea-Foreigners/dp/0930878353

  • Brother Enemy
    English(English) Book Available

    Cho Jihoon et al / 조지훈 et al / 2002 / -

    Twenty-one poets, male and female, North Korean and South Korean, well-known and long forgotten, appear in this collection, the first of its kind in English. The poems reflect the reality of living in a country torn in half by political ideologies. An introduction by translator Ji-moon Suh places the poems and the poets within a historical context that describes the suffering and despair of pitting brother against brother. https://www.amazon.com/Brother-Enemy-Poems-Korean-Voices/dp/1893996204
