The Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations at Harvard University invites applications for a tenure-track or tenured appointment in Korean Literature, broadly conceived. We particularly welcome applicants whose research and teaching combine a
firm empirical grasp of the Korean literary field with interests in such other areas as film, cultural studies, cultural history, transnational studies, comparative and world literature, and new media. The appointee will advise and teach at the undergraduate
and graduate levels, offering a range of courses related to Korean literature. The appointment is expected to begin on July 1, 2014.<o:p></o:p></p>

community. All applicants should possess a high level of proficiency in Korean.<o:p></o:p></p>
