Achievements and Future Tasks in the Field of Ancient Korean History
Journal Title: International Journal of Korean History - Year 2005, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
Great qualitative and quantitative achievements have been made in the field of ancient Korean history since liberation sixty years ago. In particular, the volume of studies in the overall field of Korean history has in recent years grown explosively. One of the main themes which have emerged in connection with this phenomenon has been the annual publication of a review of the studies which were conducted on each period, and the outlook for that particular field of Korean history. Therefore, the task of reviewing all the papers published over the last sixty years and uncovering their meaning is an impossible one even when such an undertaking is limited solely to the field of ancient Korean history. As such, it is only natural that for such reasons the scope of this paper and of the arguments developed herein will be limited.
