The relationships between the two countries were marked at the 19th century by tumultuous episodes due to French catholic proselytism and expansionist policy in East Asia but also by remarkable and unexpected scholarly achievements. At the 20th century, the isolated initiatives to promote and study Korea in France randomly taken by missionaries, diplomats, collectors and orientalists have been progressively replaced by institutionalized Korean studies that started to be structured within French universities and other higher education institutions with the help of specialists of other areas (China and Japan).

Annual Report 2016 M
Freie Universität Berlin Institute of Korean Studies Annual Report 2016 Director’s Welcome Dear colleagues and friends, This is the 8th Annual Report of the Institute of Korean Studies (IKS) at Freie Universität Berlin. The first report was published in 2009. Preparing these reports helps us to reflect on our past and future activities. Due to the dedicated and sustained efforts of the members of our institute, there can be little doubt that the quality and the range of our work improved further during 2016. During the last year, the research capacity and output of the IKS have increased significantly. The list of our publications has grown so long that only a selection of them could be included in this report. At the same time the number of students majoring in Korean Studies increased to more than 300, among them more than 50 graduate and doctoral students. With regard to our publications, we were honored that the journal of “Historical Social Research” dedicated a special issue to the results of our part of the SFB 580 (Collaborative Research Centre on “Social Developments in Post-Socialistic Societies” supported by the German Research Council DFG) on the transferability of unification policies. Another remarkable achievement was the completion of the compilation of documents from archives of the German government on the German unification process. Since 2010, more than 50 areas of transformation policies were covered and analyzed in what eventually came to consist of more than 70 volumes. They are available at the library of Otto-Suhr institute of FU Berlin. Based on these enormous efforts, a Korean-language edition “Togil t’ongil ch’ongsŏ,” is being prepared.

POLICIES TO TRANSFORM SEOUL FUTURE 1 The Seoul City Wall Walking the History of Seoul Wu-Yong Jeon 4 Introduction What the Seoul City Wall Means to Us In the Korean language, ‘Seoul’ is a common noun for a ‘leading city’ – that is, the capital city of a state. This com- mon noun was used as a proper noun only after the declara- tion of the ‘Seoul Charter’ in August 1946 and referred only to the capital of the Republic of Korea. A capital is a limited space occupied by a cluster of political, financial, legislative, educational and other central functions and institutions, and a number of words were used during the Joseon Dynasty to indicate the same – Exemplary Place (suseon), Capital (gyeongjo, gyeongdo, gyeongsa, or doeub), City Wall (doseong) and Royal City (wanggyeong).

ETH Library CULTURAL LABORATORY SEOUL Emergence, Narrative and Impact of Culturally Related Landscape Meanings Susann Valerie Ahn Doctoral Thesis ETH Zürich 2019 2 Abstract The dissertation Cultural Laboratory Seoul examines landscape restoration projects in the South Korean capital Seoul, which have influenced the urban fabric of the Korean capital since the 1980s. The landscape restoration projects have been supported by a paradigm shift from growth-oriented to environment-oriented approaches in Korean urban planning. In this context, the Seoul Metropolitan Government has sought means to convey traditional, historical and natural values through landscape restoration. In consequence, Seoul’s landscape elements—mountains, rivers, and valleys—have been cleared of apartment buildings and urban infrastructure, and afterwards have been greened. The challenge in many of these landscape restoration projects, however, has been to convey the traditional landscape meaning of these sites while meeting today’s landscape architectural standards and requirements as well as the needs of citizens. In order to gain a deeper understanding of how to deal with these challenges, the dissertation examines existing landscape restoration projects such as the restoration of Namsan (1990–2000), the restoration of Naksan (1997–2002), and the restoration of Inwangsan’s Suseongdong Valley (2007–2012).
