Korea Between Empires, 1895-1919: A Discussion of the Contentions Presented by Author Andre Schmid
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page examination of the contention that Korean nationalistic identity grew in step with the ideologies presented by Korean newspapers. The nationalistic movement we have witnessed in Korea has been particularly progressive in the last two centuries. Schmid obviously wants the reader to conclude that Korea's newspapers, newspapers whose content was guided (particularly during the period of Japanese colonialism) by the most elite of the population, was the primary factor in the evolution which occurred in regard to the concept of Korean nationalism. This argument has one obvious flaw. The majority of Koreans during this period could not read and, even with the Tonghawk revolt in 1894, the media remained largely removed from the concerns of the general populace. No additional sources are listed.
