This is the first book dealing with the poetic world of 13 female writers who wrote their poems in classical Chinese from the Joseon Dynasty to the last years of the Korean Empire. When women writers could not overcome the social ideology of the time which did not consider the act of writing to be a woman's primary duty, there were only a few women writers who made efforts to leave their works for posterity. These exceptional female poets show their inner, secret feelings of love and true confessions of their lives as well as the history of the past. One peculiar aspect commonly revealed in the poetry of female poets is their strong self-consciousness regardless of their social class.This book is unique in that it shows different emotions and a different consciousness from those of male authors. Lee Haisoon, the author of this book, is currently a professor of Korean at Ewha Womans University and chief director of the Korean Literature Society. Through this book, she hopes that readers can become intimate with each poet and appreciate the poets' lives, dreams, intellectual desires and serious reflections on their identities.
