Saeji Acta Koreana, Volume 21, Number 2, December 2018, pp. 443-459 (Article) Published by Keimyung University, Academia Koreana For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/756425 [ Access provided at 1 Oct 2021 21:59 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] ACTA KOREANA Vol. 21, No. 2, December 2018: 443–460 doi:10.18399/acta.2018.21.2.004 No Frame to Fit It All: An Autoethnography on Teaching Undergraduate Korean Studies, on and off the Peninsula CEDARBOUGH T. SAEJI In the past two decades, Korean Studies has expanded to become an interdisciplinary and increasingly international field of study and research. While new undergraduate Korean Studies programs are opening at universities in the Republic of Korea (ROK) and intensifying multi-lateral knowledge transfers, this process also reveals the lack of a clear identity that continues to haunt the field. In this autoethnographic essay, I examine the possibilities and limitations of framing Korea as an object of study for diverse student audiences, looking towards potential futures for the field. I focus on 1) the struggle to escape the nation-state boundaries implied in the habitual terminology, particularly when teaching in the ROK, where the country is unmarked (“Han’guk”), the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is marked (“Pukhan”), and the diaspora is rarely mentioned at all; 2) the implications of the expansion of Korean Studies as a major within the ROK; 3) in-class navigations of Korean national pride, the trap of Korean uniqueness and (self-)orientalization and CEDARBOUGH T.

  • The Handbook of East Asian Psycholinguistics, Volume III Korean Edited by Chungmin Lee, Greg Simpson and Youngjin Kim Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-83335-6 - The Handbook of East Asian Psycholinguistics, Volume III Korean Edited by Chungmin Lee, Greg Simpson and Youngjin Kim Frontmatter More information The Handbook of East Asian Psycholinguistics A large body of knowledge has accumulated in recent years on the cognitive processes and brain mechanisms underlying language. Much of this know- ledge has come from studies of Indo-European languages, in particular English. Korean, a language of growing interest to linguists, differs significantly from most Indo-European languages in its grammar, its lexicon, and its written and spoken forms – features which have profound implications for the learning, representation and processing of language. This handbook, the third in a three- volume series on East Asian psycholinguistics, presents a state-of-the-art discussion of the psycholinguistic study of Korean. With contributions by over sixty leading scholars, it covers topics in first and second language acquisition, language processing and reading, language disorders in children and adults, and the relationships between language, brain, culture, and cogni- tion. It will be invaluable to all scholars and students interested in the Korean language, as well as cognitive psychologists, linguists, and neuroscientists. ping li is Professor of Psychology, Linguistics, Information Sciences and Technology at Pennsylvania State University. His main research interests are in the area of psycholinguistics and cognitive science. He specializes in language acquisition,
