of Oxford are
home to many historically significant and valuable manuscripts,
rare books, and
artefacts related to Korean history and culture. Despite their
importance, many
of these items have been overlooked within the libraries’ and
museums’
collections and largely neglected by scholars. <span
style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Following on from the
publication of the
first volume of these forgotten treasures, this book collects
together further
important and often unique objects.<span
style="mso-spacerun:yes">
</span>Notable items in this volume include the only surviving
Korean example
of an 18<sup>th</sup> century world map; rare Korean coins and
charms; official
correspondence from the archives of the United Society for the

the Gospel, shining a light on the history of Christian missions
from the
opening of Korean in the 1880 until after the Korean War; rare
silk coat with
inner armour plates of lacquered hide; bronze shoes and many
other rare
artefacts.</p>
