An article by Burglind Jungmann, "Early Chosŏn Painting, Social Reorganization, and the Knowledge of Chinese Literati Arts", was recently published in&#160;Space and Location in the Circulation of Knowledge (1400-1800): Korea and Beyond (Research on Korea)by Marion Eggert, Felix Siegmund and Dennis Würthner (eds.)Peter Lang International Academic Publishers, June 2014&#160;In response to the recent surge of interest in studying epistemic transfers and changes, this volume assembles an interdisciplinary range of articles that look at the production, consumption and dissemination of knowledge in East Asia, centering on Korea, under the paradigm of knowledge circulation. Applying this heuristic tool offers new perspectives on pre-modern Korea and beyond. It allows for flexibility of scale and thus facilitates the identification of shared processes of appropriation, digestion and re-distribution of ideas, regardless of whether the exchanges take place between states and nations, between social groups, or even between individuals. The articles in this volume stress the spatial and social aspects of the process of knowledge circulation in particular: the role of location and of social networks in the production, evaluation and dissemination of new knowledge.&#160;To have a look inside, click here.
