<DIV>Dear All,</DIV>
<DIV><X-TAB> </X-TAB>Intrigued by
all the publicity about the filming of<I> Memoirs of a Geisha</I>, one of my
students asked me if she could find out more about the Korean
equivalent. That's outside my main field, so I immediately thought of
this list. Does anybody know of anything - fiction, non-fiction, film,
or whatever - that might give an insight into the lives of<I>
kisaeng</I>? Unfortunately, only English-language sources would be of
any use in this case.</DIV>
<DIV><X-TAB> </X-TAB>Many
thanks,</DIV>
