[KS] Joseon-era official terms

[Frank Hoffmann]

Oh, I eat my blueberries every day, I still can remember :)
It is taken from the wonderful (I HIGHLY 
recommend it!) work that Andrew Jackson mentioned 
in this thread before:

   Kim Tai-jin, _A Bibliographical Guide to Traditional
   Korean Sources_ (Seoul: Asiatic Research Center,
   Korea University, 1976): 559-568

Only that the transcription in the book is given in McCune-Reischauer.

I found this book tremendously useful; it 
summarizes all the important classical works 
(including travel diaries and all kind of 
scholarly works from the Chosôn period), gives 
the titles and names in Chinese characters, 
translates titles etc.-- saves a lot of work if 
you're looking for some starting point, or just 
want to know what's in a certain known book from 
that period, especially if one is not quite yet 
at home in the Chosôn period as Professor Ledyard.

Best,
Frank
