A History of the Early Korean Kingdom of Paekche - Together With an Annotated Translation of Paekche Annals of Samguk

Informationen zum Autor Jonathan W. Best is Professor of Art History at Wesleyan University. Klappentext Although the two representations of Paekche history differ markedly the underlying problem faced by both the twelfth century and the twenty first century historian is essentially the same! fashioning a responsible and reasonably coherent history of the kingdom! from the meagre! fragmentary evidence. Zusammenfassung This book presents two histories of the early Korean kingdom of Paekche (trad. 18 BCE–660 CE). The first, written by Best, is based largely on primary sources. This initial history serves, in part, to introduce the second, an extensively annotated translation of the oldest history of the kingdom, The Paekche Annals (Paekche pon’gi).
