[KS] Children, Childhood, Corporal Punishment and Violence/Violent Spaces in Chosŏn?

[Robert Winstanley-Chesters]

Hello to the Korean Studies world list serv

I am a Research Fellow at Australian National University, College of Asia and the Pacific and normally work on the geographies and topographies of the Korean Peninsula. Given that I wonder if I might seek the KS lists' help in accessing literature (including accessible doctoral theses) which addresses the role of childhood, children and child development during Korea's Chosŏn era. I am particularly interested in cultural conceptions of the role of corporal punishment on children (either during education or in the home), and other moments of violence and aggression against the body of the child. As I am a Geographer I am also interested in the places, spaces and infrastructures in which violence against children might have or did take place. I thank anyone for any help or suggestions - I have gone through as much of the literature as I can and have not yet found what I am looking for from any discipline. It could of course be as always that I am missing something enormous or looking in entirely the wrong place.
