  • Ttongsul from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Ttongsul From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Ttongsul, or feces wine, is a Korean traditional wine made from feces, Ttongsul particularly that of humans. Hangul Ttongsul was first widely Hanja introduced to the public by Vice Japan’s Yuka Uchida in 2013. She Revised Romanization Ddongsul found Dr. Lee Chang Soo who McCune–Reischauer Ttongsul makes this Korean traditional wine.[1][2] Contents 1 Production 2 Origin 3 Books referring to ttongsul 4 References 5 External links Production Ttongsul may be produced in either of two ways. The more time- consuming involves submerging a bamboo stick in a chamber-pot which contains feces and alcohol. It is left there for several months as it ferments, and the ttongsul is extracted from the bamboo.[3][4] A more rapid method, which may produce less favorable results, simply involves mixing alcohol and feces directly for several days.[5][6] Origin Medicinal compounds produced from feces have a long history in China[7] and Korea. As long ago as the Tang Dynasty, chicken manure was used this way. In Japan, equine feces have been believed to have medicinal efficacy and have been traditionally used as therapy of choice since Sengoku period. Equine feces is said to be especially effective in treating gunshot wounds by direct application to the area, or consumption by mouth or in aqueous mixture.[8][9] Recently, it is permitted to be on the market for Heo Jun "Dongui bogam ()" state prototype.[10][11] Other types of (1613) feces were historically used in medicines, including those of flying squirrels, bats, hare, sparrows [12] and silkworms.

    Articles Law and the Body in Joseon Korea: Statecraft and the Negotiation of Ideology Anders Karlsson The Review of Korean Studies Volume 16 Number 1 (June 2013): 7-45 ©2013 by the Academy of Korean Studies. All rights reserved. 8 The Review of Korean Studies Must we really sever people’s toes to uphold the law? —King Yeongjo Introduction Joseon dynasty criminal law and punishment was once considered almost exclusively to be the domain of legal scholars, but it is now attracting increasing attention from social, political and intellectual historians of Korea.1 Through these recent historical studies of not only the conspicuous and the ubiquitous social aspects of punishment and its political context, but also cosmological and moral-philosophical aspects of criminal law, a more comprehensive and historically contextualised picture of the Confucian legal culture of traditional Korea is slowly emerging. These works give a positive evaluation of the role of law in Joseon-period Confucian statecraft and observe a relative shift from ‘rule by virtue’ to ‘rule by law’ towards the latter part of the dynasty. In many of the reforms of the period they observe ideologically driven efforts to curtail the influence of the yangban elite and protect the interest of the common people (eokgang buyak 抑强扶弱), as well as an increasing reluctance to resort to cruel forms of punishment. The understanding of legal scholars often differs. Although not adhering to the view that could be seen in early scholarship—in which pre-modern Korean law was predominantly dismissed simply as a tool for arbitrary and oppressive social control or subject to unfavourable comparisons with the alleged standards of Western legal culture2—legal scholarship still predominantly focuses on the ideological emphasis on rule by virtue and the personal legal power of * This work was supported by the Academy of Korean Studies (KSPS) Grant funded by the Korean Government (MOE) (AKS-2011-BAA-2104).

  • Archaeology of Psychotherapy in Korea
    Downloaded by [New York University] at 00:18 07 August 2016 Archaeology of Psychotherapy in Korea This is the first book in English dedicated solely to the historical development of psychotherapy in Korea. It is an archaeological research of literature relating to the care and treatment of mind in Korean history in dialogue with spiritual, philosophical, cultural, social, and medical perspectives. It reviews the evolution of different approaches on mental illnesses covering autochthonous practices, psychiatry, clinical psychology, counselling, Western psychotherapy, and Korean psychotherapy. Archaeology of Psychotherapy in Korea inspects: • Folk treatment • First psychiatry • Influence from clinical psychology • Counselling development • Implementation of Western psychotherapy • Shaping of Korean psychotherapy. Its discussion engages firmly with the Korean culture and perspective while acknowledging various extrinsic influences and the fact that Korean psychotherapy continues to evolve in its own unique manner. It aims to refine the understanding of psychotherapy development in Korea in connection with its historical and social backgrounds, and to interpret a way to highlight the culturally relevant psychotherapy that is more suitable as a Korean psychotherapy better attuned to the distinct cultural and societal expectation of Korea.
