SUMMARY:The Genbunitchi Movement and the Modernization of Korean Writing St
 yles\, 1910–1945: Hu Shih’s Influence on Korean Literati
DESCRIPTION:\n	Bae Gaehwa (Modern Korean Literature\, Dankook University\; 
 HYI Associate)\n	Chair/discussant: Karen Thornber (Professor of Comparativ
 e Literature and of East Asian Languages and Civilizations\, Harvard Unive
 rsity)\n\n	Co-sponsored by the Korea Institute\n\n\n	\n		The genbunitchi (
 言文一致) movement\, the unification of speech and writing\, began in 
 Korea in 1894\, but ceased when Japan annexed Korea in 1910. However\, the
  March First Movement in 1919 ignited Korean national consciousness and re
 sumed the modernization movement of Korean writing. In this regard\, Hu Sh
 ih(胡適)’s “Eight Don’t-isms” [babuzhuyi 八不主義]\, and his
  argument that literary reform should be ahead of the establishment of sta
 te language\, encouraged Korean writers to spur the genbunitchi movement. 
 Korean literati who contributed to the genbunitchi movement not only stand
 ardized the Korean language and spelling system\, but also tried to establ
 ish modern Korean literature. After liberation from Japan in August 1945\,
  both South and North Korea approved these legacies of literary reform as 
 the standards for the state language. The genbunitchi movement\, encourage
 d by Hu Shih\, became the cornerstone for literary practice and cultural n
 ationalism during the colonial and post-colonial era in Korea.\n\n\n
