By examining the triadic literary and cultural relations among Russia, Japan, and colonial Korea and revealing a shared sensibility and literary experience in East Asia (which referred to Russia as a significant other in the formation of its own modern literatures), this book highlights translation as a radical and ineradicable part--not merely a catalyst or complement--of the formation of modern national literature. \u003ci\u003eTranslation's Forgotten History \u003c\/i\u003ethus rethinks the way modern literature developed in Korea and East Asia. While national canons are founded on amnesia regarding their process of formation, framing literature from the beginning as a process rather than an entity allows a more complex and accurate understanding of national literature formation in East Asia and may also provide a model for world literature today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Heekyoung Cho\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0674660048\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780674660045\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harvard University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/28\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.20w x 0.90d","brand":"Heekyoung Cho","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086761406719,"sku":"9780674660045","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a0f78ca3-7f06-46b6-a73d-a17117505290.jpg?v=1769096424","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/translations-forgotten-history-heekyoung-cho-9780674660045","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
