I will make a presentation on South Korean cinema and the regimes of otherness at the International Symposium "Regards croisés sur le cinéma coréen" Thursday 22nd october at Ecole nationale Louis Lumière in Paris.

This is the PPT of my presentation at the Shinhan university conference "Crossing the Division and Borders" (2015 October 15th, Seoul).

The 8th Kyujanggak International Symposium on Korean Studies

• Title : The Contemporary Relevance of Document Culture: Knowledge, Media, Power
• Date : 25(Tue) - 26(Wed)  August, 2015
• Venue : Kyujanggak Institute for Korean Studies, School of law, Seoul National University

Seoul National University Kyujanggak Institute for Korean Studies will be hosting the 8th annual Kyujanggak International Symposium on Korean Studies from Tuesday 25 August  to Wednesday 26 August 2015. This year, the symposium will focus on the topic of “The Contemporary Relevance of Document Culture: Knowledge, Media, Power.”

Documents are not just a historical legacy that reflects past ideas or mentalities; they also give rise continuously to new interpretations, and sometimes even interact with historical memories and serve to reshape them. The purpose of this symposium is therefore to question the contemporary implications of the documentary heritage of Korea. Historical changes in the meaning of recording or producing documents; the manifold social tensions that exist between recording and remembering; the diversity and connotations of various new media for recording history; problems and controversies surrounding the interpretation of historical records; the specificity of the Korean documentary heritage in its global context; these are just some of the subthemes that could be explored.

For this purpose, we have invited scholars from around the world to share their thoughts on various agendas surrounding the main theme.
