Sinopsis

All Koreans enjoy sijosas a beloved form of poetry.But, pray, look beyond the sprinkling of wordsto find a treasure trove of history.áLove Korea? You do? Then you HAVE TO dip your foot into the world of sijo! Have you heard of it? Pronounced as shijo, it is a form of poetry that has been loved through the generations. If you could believe it, it is almost eight hundred years old, a precious artifact by historical standards! However, a sijo can never be encased inside a glass exhibit. Eloquent in its archaic ways, the words still speak out loud and clear, its message still poignant and stirring. Its soft musicality and the beauty of a bygone way of expression still capture the hearts of the Korean people. If you love Korea, do try a taste of sijo, especially the classical ones called the gosijo. Mind you, in all appearances and on first take, the poetry may seem light and airy, but chew on it, and youâÇÖll discover layer upon layer of meaning and the thread of emotions running deeper still. Sijos may be short, but they speak volumes with regards to Korean history and the frame of mind of the respected literati of the land.áMiss Anna wrote this book with a singular audience in mind--people all over the world who are aspiring to learn Korean, children included. Hence, she has poured in all her creative energy to make classical sijo, also called goshijo, more accessible to language learners.

Therefore, to get the correct nuance of the Korean letters, please consult a native speaker of Korean.3.ááááThe most accurate sense of words and meaning of the words (and groups of words) in English.4.ááááDefinition of words and groups of words in modern Korean for native speakers of Korean as a way to refresh their understanding of the sijo.5.ááááThe thematic undertone of each poem.6.ááááMiss AnnaâÇÖs version of the sijo in English. (In all cases, the inherent music and the overall rhythm of a language are forever lost in translation. Hence, she focused on providing the most accurate sense and meaning behind each sijo on behalf of the poets.)7.ááááA short story behind each poem and the poet. This narrative does much to provide a fuller and a richer understanding of the poem. As the reader gets acquainted with the historical backdrop behind each piece, he/she will perceive its underlying emotions as well.áThis book presents twenty classical favorites! Placed in chronological order, the poems mark the chaotic end of the Kingdom of Goryeo and bare the turbulent beginnings of the Kingdom of Joseon. Political affairs were the main subject of the early sijo as the poets in the la
