Abstract

On a longtemps confondu la modernité avec la forme prise par le développement historique des sociétés occidentales. Selon Pierre-François Souyri, l’histoire récente montre au contraire que la modernité telle que nous la concevions n’était que l’aspect particulier d’un phénomène mondial.Au Japon, elle a émergé au moins autant de la pensée japonaise et chinoise que de concepts venus d'Occident : dans les années 1880, la lutte pour la liberté et les droits du peuple et pour un régime constitutionnel s’abreuve des classiques chinois plus que des idées rousseauistes ; celle contre la destruction de la nature par le système industriel puise ses inspirations dans une cosmologie de l’harmonie entre l’homme et l’univers ; le féminisme, qui apparaît dès les années 1910, trouve certaines de ses référence dans le shintô ; et le premier socialisme se nourrit d’une vision du monde largement confucéenne.Par ses remplois d’idéologies du passé, la modernisation japonaise oblige à relativiser le statut exemplaire de l’expérience occidentale. Cette modernisation a de fait fonctionné autant comme le rejet du modèle occidental que comme son adoption. Pourtant, son rythme et les questionnements qu’elle suscite ont été identiques à ceux de l’Occident. Pierre-François Souyri peut dès lors poser ce souriant paradoxe : une grammaire commune de la modernité peut-elle puiser à des sources différentes?

Abstract

The «Korean Wave», or Hallyu phenomenon, has brought South Korean popular culture to the global population. Studies on Korean visual culture have therefore often focused on this aspect, leaving North Korea sidelined and often considered in a negative light because of its political regime. Korean Screen Cultures sets out to redress this imbalance with a broad selection of essays spanning both North and South as well as different methodological approaches, from ethnographic and audience studies to cultural materialist readings. The first section of the book, «The South», highlights popular media – including online gaming and television drama – and concentrates on the margins, in which the very nature of «The South» is contested. «The South and the North» examines North Korea as an ideological other in South Korean popular culture as well as discussing North Korean cinema itself. «The Global» offers new approaches to Korean popular culture beyond national borders and includes work on K-pop and Korean television drama. This book is a vital addition to existing scholarship on Korean popular culture, offering a unique view by providing an imaginary unification of the two Koreas negotiated through local and transnational popular culture flows. -- ‡c From publisher's description.

Abstract

'Pop City' examines the use of Korean television dramas and K-pop music to promote urban and rural places in South Korea. Building on the phenomenon of Korean pop culture, Youjeong Oh argues that pop culture-featured place selling mediates two separate domains: political decentralization and the globalization of Korean popular culture. By analyzing the process of culture-featured place marketing, this book shows that urban spaces are produced and sold just like TV dramas and pop idols by promoting spectacular images rather than substantial physical and cultural qualities.
