<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">After his stay as part of the grant programme of the Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz, Mr Luká\u0161 Kubík (Charles University, Prague) will give an online lecture on 5 May 2025 from 6 pm (Berlin time) on the topic \u2018(Un)official
Korean Sources on late Kory\u014f in the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin\u2019s East Asian Collection\u2019. In his lecture, he will present the findings from his research in the Berlin holdings on historical sources from the late Kory\u014f period in more detail.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">In this lecture, I will talk about Korean historical sources held in the East Asian collection of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, focusing on both official and unofficial narratives from the late Kory\u014f period onward.
While official histories document key events, a range of unofficial sources offers unique, often personal perspectives that enrich our understanding of the past. Among these are educational texts used in private academies, or
<i>S\u014fw\u014fn</i> (</span><span lang="ZH-CN" style="font-family:DengXian">\u66f8\u9662</span><span lang="EN-US">), which compile Korean history from earlier works to create accessible overviews for students. Equally significant are the
<i>Munjip</i> (</span><span lang="ZH-CN" style="font-family:DengXian">\u6587\u96c6</span><span lang="EN-US">), or collected writings of scholars, officials, and literati, which capture personal reflections and experiences rarely found in state-sanctioned records. These
various sources reveal a complex and multifaceted picture of Korea\u2019s historical and intellectual traditions, allowing us to explore widely accepted accounts and individual viewpoints.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
