Abstract

Abstract:Very few western scholars have ventured into the study of Koryŏ. Moreover, Koryŏ, often looked upon as the middle of Korea’s three dynastic periods, gets little respect in Korean historical circles. This lack of focus on Koryŏ is due in part to rather limited sources when compared to the richness of Chosŏn. Despite this, there still remain important sources such as official dynastic histories, miscellaneous literary writings, religious tracts, tomb and other inscriptions that beg for translation. Although the perils that confront the translator are many, the process of uncovering the past and making it accessible to general readers offers unique rewards. This paper explores these issues and reveals this writer’s own problems and successes in translating Koryŏ source material. Koryŏ sources pointedly show that there is much more to this often overlooked kingdom than just celadon.
高丽的来源:高丽不仅仅是青瓷
摘要:很少有西方学者涉足高丽语的研究。此外,通常被视为韩国三朝中间时期的高丽,在韩国历史学界几乎得不到尊重。这种对高丽语缺乏关注的部分原因是与Chosŏn的丰富相比,来源相当有限。尽管如此,仍然有一些重要的资料,如官方的朝代史、各种文学作品、宗教传单、坟墓和其他铭文,需要翻译。尽管译者面临的危险有很多,但揭示过去并使其为普通读者所了解的过程提供了独特的回报。本文对这些问题进行了探讨,并揭示了作者本人在翻译高丽语原文中存在的问题和取得的成功。高丽的资料明确地表明,在这个经常被忽视的王国,除了青瓷,还有更多的东西。
