New Faculty in korean studies The Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations and the Korea Institute at Harvard are delighted to announce that Si Nae Park will be joining the faculty as Assistant Professor of East Asian Languages and Civilizations. Si Nae Park received her Ph.D in Asian Studies at the University of British Columbia, Canada, specializing in premodern Korean literature. Interested in Korean literature and literary practices as part of the larger context of the Sinographic cultural realm, her current research project uses vernacular writing as a key concept to delve into questions of genre and their intersections with the historiography of Korean literature and the rise of late- Chosŏn yadam narratives (‘unofficial talk’; short narratives of historical persons and events). This project is currently being formulated into a book manuscript tentatively about the korea institute titled Staged Voices in Tongp’ae naksong. Mission and History

Supporting the Korea Institute at Harvard University

THE KOREA INSTITUTE RELIES ON GIFTS AND GRANTS to support its teaching, research, publishing, and educational and outreach goals. The need for these commitments increases as the Korea plays an increasingly important global role.

BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE The Korea Institute could not carry out its activities — educating students and the public, engaging with established and emerging scholars, and building ties with Korea —without vital financial support from its friends and partners. Recent funding has allowed the Institute to sustain valuable programs and to develop exciting new ventures, ranging from the Early Korea Project to Korean film and art activities to a new post-doc opportunity.

The Korea Institute offers giving opportunities to support developing research, to advance existing projects, and to launch innovative new programs. The Institute encourages individuals and organizations to support its important scholarly mission. Our donors help to underwrite vital activities and programs such as:

• Faculty research and teaching • Graduate student research and teaching • Undergraduate programs • Fellowships and scholarships • Publications • Seminars, lectures, workshops, and conferences • New program development

Fulfilling the Korea Institute’s mission to promote a deeper understanding of Korea would not be possible without its valued friends and supporters.

EVERY GIFT MAKES A DIFFERENCE To support the Korea Institute, please contact Susan Laurence, executive director, at 617-384-7388 or [email protected]. Your contribution of any amount will help the Institute fulfill a pivotal role in shaping and expanding the Korean Studies program at Harvard and beyond.
