Kim Ok-rye: Closed Society and Open Text

We're going to analyze the message from Melville's short story Thebec-Taw, which suggests a positive view of traditional American Indian social values and that it cannot prevent the general collapse of the nation unless the focus on power is untapped. And he presents his diagnosis of the writer in his 19th century history novel Israeli Portertham, denouncing the state of American society, which contradicts the ideals of the Revolution, a free democracy, which is a free country, and whose lives, not even the minority, are subject to slavery. We also look at the vision of the cross-creative co-same Chinese American writer Melville, Korean-American author, and so on, that shows the need for an open view of human and natural peaceful coexistence, a multi-racial cross-site inter-race satellite.
