Kim Jong-nam: 12 Humanities Keywords Read Through Modern Literature

Answering the question of question of the written language that our time demands, all across the 12 rivers, is: ‘ What are we to do? It's capital and labor, 2. Spending and everyday, and 3. City, city, 4. Country and country violence, 5. Education and Incompatibility, 6. Art and politics, 7. Science and civilization, 8. Environment and ecology, 9. Disasters and Apo calypses, 10. Diaspora and multicultural, 11. The body and the body's eyes, 12. Sex and Gender, by looking at 12 of our contemporary humanities in contemporary literature, were trying to examine the position we stood on and find a desirable future. In this book, we're looking at a contemporary literary work that has shaped the hot issues of our lives. Not only can we approach the problem more specifically through a review of these works, but we also have the characteristic of analyzing the explanation. Furthermore, when we reflect on the reality of the money that is being played by ‘false humanism’ that treats humanities as a highly creative object or turns into psychological ostentatious object for social behavior, it answers the need in the sense that humanities are a reflection of life-based problems in real life. I hope it will be a little base for the loss of fake humanities, which are corrupted by emotional education and communication, and for restoring the essential aspects of humanism, which is an insight into human society.
