Motif of Miraculous Birth in Mongolian And
ISSN 1226-4490 International Journal of Central Asian Studies Volume 1 1996 Editor in Chief Talat Tekin The International Association of Central Asian Studies Institute of Asian Culture and Development MOTIF OF MIRACULOUS BIRTH IN MONGOLIAN AND KOREAN MYTHS AND EPIC (COMPARATIVE STUDY) Prof. Dr Alexander Fedotoff 1.0 Introduction Myths and epic cannot exist without mythic and epical characters. Moreover, mythic and epical space and time cannot exist without such characters, as well. These characters have individual, only or mainly their own distinctive features (name, motifs and elements of biographies, etc.), movements and entertainments, on one hand, and typical features with characteristic nature, on the other hand. The latter point allows us to treat such a character as a special phenomenon of mythic and epical verbal art. both, individual and group (typical), are equally important and interconditioned, because an individual principle to great extent is a definite artistic realization of a group, or typical principle. Another point: one can assume typical principle to have some deviations, and therefore, to signify a progress, a motion, a creation of a new typical feature. In this article I would like to discover typical features, regulations and rules in the description of mythic, legendary and epical characters in Mongolian, consequently in Buryat and Oirat-Kalmuck, and in Korean myths and epic, as well as to find out individual ethnic features in their realization. Among a great variety of motifs which construct main mythic and epical characters I have chosen a motif of miraculous birth. This motifis connected with the idea of a special predestination, which is inherent to mythic narrative works, as well as to heroic epic and historical legends. -
A Shamanic Korean Ritual for Transforming Death and Sickness Into Rebirth and Integration
International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Volume 7 • Number 5 • May 2017 A Shamanic Korean Ritual for Transforming Death and Sickness into Rebirth and Integration Nami Lee Dr Lee’s Psychoanalysis Clinic 1905 No Seoun-ro 11, Seocho-gu Seoul 06733, Republic of Korea Eun Young Kim Mental Health Center Seoul National University Health Care Center 1 Gwanak-ro, Gwanak-gu, Seoul 08826, Republic of Korea. Abstract Shamanism is still a popular form of spiritual practice despite the recent socioeconomic and technological development in Korea. This article discusses Korean shamanic tradition, major mythical characters, and a Korean shamanic ritual, Sitkimgut, from a psychological standpoint. Sitkim refers to the act of purifying and soothing the dead spirit, while gut means ritual. The psychological motifs of Sitkimgut are venting, cleansing, purifying, transforming the participants’ negative emotions and trauma into more meaningful experience by going through symbolic death and rebirth. Mythological motifs of Sitkim are observed in many religions, myths, and fairytales in other world. Shamanic rituals, if carefully handled and applied, may help healing the wounded, resolving conflicts, and reconnecting with the numinous realm. Keywords: Korean shamanic rituals, Sitkimgut, rebirth and integration, psychoanalytical perspectives 1. Shamanism and Psychoanalysis Most Western scholars approach shamanism from rational perspectives as observers. So-called primitive culture is estranged since most modern people ignore or deny their influences on modern psyche. Jung, however, went through his own initiation and enjoyed his own shamanic way of living (Smith, 2007). Since Jung respected nature and solitude, and kept going on vision quests, he may be considered as having been a great shaman. -
South Korean Cinema and the Conditions of Capitalist Individuation
The Intimacy of Distance: South Korean Cinema and the Conditions of Capitalist Individuation By Jisung Catherine Kim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Media in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kristen Whissel, Chair Professor Mark Sandberg Professor Elaine Kim Fall 2013 The Intimacy of Distance: South Korean Cinema and the Conditions of Capitalist Individuation © 2013 by Jisung Catherine Kim Abstract The Intimacy of Distance: South Korean Cinema and the Conditions of Capitalist Individuation by Jisung Catherine Kim Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Media University of California, Berkeley Professor Kristen Whissel, Chair In The Intimacy of Distance, I reconceive the historical experience of capitalism’s globalization through the vantage point of South Korean cinema. According to world leaders’ discursive construction of South Korea, South Korea is a site of “progress” that proves the superiority of the free market capitalist system for “developing” the so-called “Third World.” Challenging this contention, my dissertation demonstrates how recent South Korean cinema made between 1998 and the first decade of the twenty-first century rearticulates South Korea as a site of economic disaster, ongoing historical trauma and what I call impassible “transmodernity” (compulsory capitalist restructuring alongside, and in conflict with, deep-seated tradition). Made during the first years after the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis and the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, the films under consideration here visualize the various dystopian social and economic changes attendant upon epidemic capitalist restructuring: social alienation, familial fragmentation, and widening economic division. -
The Influence of Shamanism in the Korean Adventist Church 21
Choi: The Influence of Shamanism in the Korean Adventist Church 21 GYEONGCHUN CHOI The Influence of Shamanism in the Korean Adventist Church In spite of the effort by the military government between 1961 and 1980 to eradicate shamanism because it considered it to be mere supersti- tion, shamanism continues to be practiced in Korean Society. Recently, the newspapers have reported the resurrection of shamanism under titles such as “Shamanism Enjoys Revival in Techno-Savvy South Korea” (Choe 2007) and “Korean Shamanism Finds New Life in Modern Era” (Park 2012). In reality, there has never been a time when shamanism ceased to be practiced in Korea. The longevity of shamanism in Korea has been attributed to a world- view which mainly promises material blessings in this world. The Pres- ident, Park Junghee tried to banish shamanistic rituals and practices in local villages, believing the practices were psychologically unhealthy su- perstitions. There were times when the government prohibited Gut, or shamanistic ritual, and destroyed the holy places and trees and where shamanistic holy tools (swords, bells, fans, et cetera) were confiscated and shamans were imprisoned. Ironically, whereas the military regime wanted to exterminate shamanism in their modernization movement (An- ti-Superstition Movement), the foundational philosophy of shamanism which guarantees this-worldly prosperity, seemed to fit perfectly with the Korean people’s deepest need and primary goal to achieve economic suc- cess. Thus, in the midst of rapid modernization which emerged in con- nection with the rapid growth of Christianity, shamanism survived as an underground value system that easily blended in with the other Korean religions of Confucianism, Buddhism, and yes, even the newly introduced Christianity (Kim 2006:324; Kim 2000a:116). -
The Influence of Shamanism on Korean Churches and How to Overcome It

Schmitt What problem do Korean churches have now? Korean churches have had serious growth problems since the 1990s'. Although Korean churches have grown rapidly with the economic growth of Korea, there have been many contributions and evil influences of shamanism, which lies deep in the minds of Korean people. Obviously, shamanism has made a contribution to growth of the Korean church since Christianity was introduced. Many churches and pastors have consented to or utilized such a tendency. However, this created serious problems. Shamanism is anti-Biblical. Shamanism brought about a theoretical combination, transmutation of religion and many mistakes in church life. A questionnaire was used to reveal; these facts. Ultimately, this thesis calls attention to shamanist elements in Korean churches and suggests how to eliminate them. Abstract length: 125 words IV ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Liberty University has become one of my almamaters. I have some good memories of going to the classrooms on the quiet snowy campus. There was also a great change in me while I was taking the courses. -
Škopek Jeseň 2010
SVEDOMIE Po čas celej svojej vlády bol americký prezident Abraham Lincoln pod neustálym tlakom, najmä v ťažkých rokoch ob čianskej vojny. Aj ke ď si bol vedomý toho, že sa vo svojom úrade dopustí chýb, predsavzal si, že nikdy nebude robi ť kompromisy so svojím svedomím. Bude sa snaži ť kona ť vždy čestne. Č Ň Jeho rozhodnutie bolo také pevné, že raz povedal: „Som XIV. RO NÍK JESE 2/2010 odhodlaný vies ť záležitosi svojho úradu tak, aby na konci, ke ď budem odtia ľto odchádza ť -, hoci možno stratím všetkých priate ľov tu na zemi, zostal mi aspo ň jeden priate ľ – moje svedomie!“ Ke ď rešpektuješ hlas svedomia, naozaj sa môže sta ť tvojím najlepším priate ľom, ktorý ťa chráni od mnohých sklamaní. Ak však pôjdeš vedome proti nemu, nedá ti pokojne spa ť. Ako asi dopadne ten, kto sa snaží uml čať svojho najlepšieho priate ľa? Ni č nie je také ťažké, ako nepodvádza ť samého seba. (L. Wittgenstejn) (vybrané z knihy Nikdy sa nevzdávaj) Úvodník com. post Milí čitatelia Škopku!
