강연자 소개

Boudewijn Walraven is Professor Emeritus of Korean Studies of Leiden University in the The Netherlands and currently Visiting Professor at the Academy of East Asian Studies of Sungkyunkwan University. He studied at Leiden University, where he obtained his PhD, and Seoul National University. From his first publication (a study of the social implications of sorcery accusations in the Chosŏn period) onward he has been interested in the use of anthropological approaches to Korean culture and history. Recently his research focuses on two projects, one a study of Buddhist practice in the late Chosŏn period seen through the focus of vernacular songs and paintings (which both functioned as interfaces between monks and lay believers), the other the anthropology of history, an inquiry into the social conditions and social functions of both the production and consumption of history (that is, history in the sense of representations of the past). Boudewijn Walraven is a founding member of the Association for Korean Studies in Europe (AKSE), which he has served as President for two four-year terms. Presently he is the Editor of the Sungkyun Journal of East Asian Studies and the online journal Korean Histories (www.koreanhistories.org). In 2003 he was awarded the Order of Cultural Merit “보관문화훈장” by the government of the Republic of Korea.
