[KS] Yu Kilchun

[Vladimir Tikhonov]

Dear Andrzej (if I may),

You probably mean "P'aran malnyOn chOnsa" ( - "The History of Wars in 
Poland's Last Years")? This book, originally written and published in 
Japanese, was for the first time translated and published in Korean by O 
YongsOn in 1899, and that edition was then republished in 1906. The book 
was repeatedly advertized by HwangsOng sinmun, and greatly impressed 
many early nationalists (who tended to use it as a textbook before the 
Government-General prohibited the book, together with Liang Qichao's 
writings, and other "subversive materials") and Confucian patriots, like 
Han'gye Yi SUnghUi (who wrote a moving poem about the tragedy of 
Poland). Yu Kilchun's translation, entitled "P'aran soemang chOnsa", was 
never published and, in fact, little known. See Yun PyOnghUi, <Yu Kiljun 
yOn'gu>, Kukhak yOn'guwOn, 1998, p. 78.

Best greetings,

Vladimir Tikhonov (Pak Noja)
