“Children’s Literature of North and South Korea”
By Dr. Dafna Zur assistant professor at Stanford University. She teaches courses on Korean literature, popular culture, visual culture, and Asian children’s literature in the department of East Asian Languages and Cultures. Zur's current book manuscript traces the development of the idea of the child and young reader in magazines. She draws on the texts and images from those magazines to arrive at an understanding of the imagined role of the child in the cultural imagination of colonial and post-liberation Korea. She also works on North Korean materials, and has written several articles on the Korean War in North and South Korean children's books. Her interests lie broadly with the children's literature of South and North Korea, folk tales, and translation.
