Zusatztext Fashion students, fashion historians, and anyone intrigued by Korean history and traditional culture will find this an accessible and informative read. Informationen zum Autor Kyunghee Pyun is Associate Professor of Art History at the Fashion Institute of Technology, State University of New York. Her scholarship focuses on history of collecting, reception of Asian art, and intersectionality of art and design, technology, and industrial history. She is co-editor of Dress History of Korea (Bloomsbury, 2023) with Minjee Kim. Minjee Kim is an independent researcher based in San Francisco, USA. Klappentext Bringing together a wealth of primary sources and with contributions from leading experts, Dress History of Korea presents the most recent approaches to the interpretation of dress and fashion of Korea. Through close analysis of visual, written, and material sources-some newly excavated or recently re-discovered in global museums-the book reveals how dress and adornment evolved from the period of state formation to the modern era. Authors with a range of academic and curatorial experience discuss the close relation of dress and adornments to the socio-political and cultural history of Korea and place the dress history of Korea within broader contexts in studies of fashion, material culture, museology, and costume design. As in other cultures, modern Korean fashion owes many of its styles to historic dress and this process of adaptation is explored within high fashion and popular culture contexts in ways that benefit historians, curators, and designers alike. With key materials newly available to global readers, Dress History of Korea is t he indispensable guide to the study of Korean dress and fashion. Vorwort Making primary sources and new perspectives available to non-Korean speakers for the first time, this book explores the evolution of Korean dress from the Three Kingdoms to the modern era.
