Hwang Seon-yeol: Meeting Modern Poetry and Poets 2

Volume 2 of *Meeting Modern Poetry and Poets* covers modern Korean poetry and poets. This book selects notable works from the history of modern Korean poetry to explore the poetic characteristics of the era and examines in detail the outline of the grand mountain range that is modern Korean poetry history. It aims to go beyond merely understanding and appreciating a single poem to simultaneously understand and appreciate the poet and the circumstances of the era surrounding it. Volume 2 analyzes poetry from the post-liberation period through the 1980s, when industrialization was taking place. Divided into three parts, it introduces poems that erupted amidst the political turmoil following the liberation, poems published after the national tragedy of the Korean War, and poems released during an era of intense struggle for modernization.
