literature scholar Hwang Hyeon-san.\u003cbr\u003e It has been five years since the publication of my first collection of prose, “The Night is My Teacher.”\u003cbr\u003e As he has done throughout his life, in this book, too, he has preserved the 'level' of his writing's shadow, which has led us to follow his thoughts rather than his emotions, with the elegance of the precious lines at the end.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The prose begins on March 9, 2013 and ends on December 23, 2017.\u003cbr\u003e The reason why the nearly 900 pages of writing were divided into five parts and organized by time is because it is in itself a political and cultural history of Korea, and it becomes our history during that complex and multifaceted time.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e『Hwang Hyeon-san's Small Request』, which he wrote with his whole body, is wrapped in the smallness of 'smallness' on the outside, but it contains some tips from the teacher to always touch and hold onto the real heart.\u003cbr\u003e When we trace back the instances of our failures throughout our lives, the true causes are often small rather than large.\u003cbr\u003e This book, filled with the teacher's small requests, will thus become something like a star.\u003cbr\u003e When we feel unfamiliar with the darkness of life, when we are afraid, when we feel like giving up, he will guide us without hesitation as our guide.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e You can preview some of the book's

the North and South is destroyed to its core and the nation falls into irreversible misfortune, what good is the accumulation of economic wealth? What value is there in the honing of young minds and the blossoming of literary talents?\u003cbr\u003e It is we who must help prevent one side of the nation from making bad decisions.\u003cbr\u003e The North and South are bound by the closest bloodline, have faced the same fate for thousands of years, and are once again grappling with the same fate as they face imminent danger.\u003cbr\u003e The wisdom to realize and practice what it means to prosper together is true knowledge, and the power to help one's fellow countrymen avoid tragic decisions is true national strength.\u003cbr\u003e Where

every time a heinous crime occurs, but many people argue that the death penalty, which was practically abolished, should be reinstated.\u003cbr\u003e This proves our defeat, as it amounts to saying that we should eliminate the problem rather than solve it.\u003cbr\u003e Besides, the problem doesn't go away.\u003cbr\u003e Because what criminals fear is not death, but daily life.\u003cbr\u003e

living.\u003cbr\u003e But what is this thing called a profession?\u003cbr\u003e If we narrow the discussion down to literature, many writers who graduated from literature-related departments work in publishing or cultural fields, but if a writer doesn't get a job, it also means that he or she has succeeded as a writer. \u003cbr\u003eMany writers have quit their teaching jobs because they say it interferes with their writing.\u003cbr\u003e Have they brought dishonor to their alma mater?\u003cbr\u003e The president mentioned somewhere that singer Psy was a model for the creative economy, but is Psy an employee of one of the four major insurance companies?\u003cbr\u003e I don't know anything about the creative economy, but I can't say I don't know about creation.\u003cbr\u003e Knowing that getting a job isn't just about wearing a suit and going to work at one of the four major insurance companies is the beginning of creation.\u003cbr\u003e (2013.\u003cbr\u003e 12.\u003cbr\u003e

anything.\u003cbr\u003e Of course I don't believe in the devil.\u003cbr\u003e But not believing in the devil doesn't erase the fact that people on this earth have committed things that only the devil would do. \u003cbr\u003eIf it was the devil's doing, it would end up as the devil's research, but since it is our sin, we must now shake off our seats and rise up.\u003cbr\u003e I have to do whatever

but\u003cbr\u003e “I do hope that these trivial requests will become some kind of allegory.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We are publishing a new collection of essays by literary critic and French literature scholar Hwang Hyeon-san.\u003cbr\u003e It has been five years since the publication of my first collection of prose, “The Night is My Teacher.”\u003cbr\u003e In the meantime, he presented a poem called “Looking at the Sky from a Well,” which is a guide to reading poetry.\u003cbr\u003e He was the one who made me hold in my hands the works of authors of the century, such as Mallarmé, Baudelaire, Apollinaire, Rimbaud, and Saint-Exupéry, one after another, as if it were no big deal, even though it was obviously a big deal.\u003cbr\u003e As is known, he was appointed as the 6th Chairman of the Korea Arts and Culture Committee in 2017, but resigned after 3 months due to health reasons and has been battling illness ever since.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eI dare to guess that his past five years have been filled with such busyness and pain.\u003cbr\u003e While fulfilling his duty as a translator, he tirelessly criticized the aspects of our political society that were never smooth sailing and were tragically ruined, and he sat down in every place where he could find a place to speak, taking up his pen, in order to open our folded ears, closed eyes, and shut mouths.\u003cbr\u003e And I have been doing my best to be polite in every word I write, with my ears wide open, my eyes wide open, and my mouth wide open.\u003cbr\u003e The morality of this time could be replaced with a certain 'etiquette' that is the responsibility and duty of an intellectual who must be observed as a teacher of the times and a writer in the field.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Hwang Hyeon-san's Small Request\" is a book that captures all of his difficult times. \u003cbr\u003eAs he has done throughout his life, in this book, too, he has preserved the 'level' of his writing's shadow, which has led us to follow his thoughts rather than his emotions, with the elegance of the precious lines at the end.\u003cbr\u003e In any situation, he never shouts loudly.\u003cbr\u003e However, he is a person who listens to the other person until the end and often expresses his inner thoughts metaphorically.\u003cbr\u003e In any situation, he neither laughs nor cries easily.\u003cbr\u003e However, there are times when he turns around and washes his face after the other person stops laughing and crying.\u003cbr\u003e In any situation, he does not boast of his fast pace.\u003cbr\u003e However, he is a person who is skilled at observing the opponent's stride keenly, instinctively breathing, and then matching his steps.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIn this way, he has spent his entire life bending his spine to the idea that you and I should become one and live together, and that we should live together in a way that makes sense and is natural.\u003cbr\u003e \"Hwang Hyeon-san's Small Request\" is a book that reflects his judgment in a more active and proactive way.\u003cbr\u003e The prose begins on March 9, 2013 and ends on December 23, 2017.\u003cbr\u003e When I divided the nearly 900 pages of writing into five parts and organized them chronologically without any doubt or hesitation, I was quite certain that it would become, in itself, Korea's political and cultural history, our history during that complex and turbulent time.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAlthough I wrote this in response to requests from various media outlets, I held the subject matter to my own subjective opinion, so I think this book, which accurately records the direction of the person called 'Hwang Hyeon-san' from the first to the last word without any disarray or the usual sidelong glances, is the very evidence.\u003cbr\u003e Compared to other books, I think the pages soaked with tears and swollen with moisture made this book thicker.\u003cbr\u003e When it comes to writing, he has always had a firm mind and a firm body, but in this writing, he seems to have pretended not to notice even a slightly open mind and a slightly loose body.\u003cbr\u003e We have all gone through times where we had no choice but to live that way, so we can cautiously assert that the keyword he sought to serve throughout his life was 'love.' \u003cbr\u003eBecause it was love, he would have kept his eyes open even while sleeping, because it was love, he would have had busy hands even while being busy, and because it was love, he would have had a caring heart even while being in pain.\u003cbr\u003e It goes without saying that the target is directed at all of us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 『Hwang Hyeon-san's Small Request』, which he wrote with his whole body, may be wrapped in the smallness of 'smallness' on the outside, but its true essence is a tip from the teacher on life that always touches and grabs the heart.\u003cbr\u003e If we trace back the instances of our failures throughout our lives, the true causes are often small rather than large.\u003cbr\u003e I didn't know that easy thing, so I'll learn it from now on.\u003cbr\u003e This book, filled with the teacher's small requests, will thus become something like a star. \u003cbr\u003eWhen we look up, it's there, and when we lie down, it's a face. Whether we look or not, that star always shines in its own way. This silent navigation of life shines especially brightly at night.\u003cbr\u003e When we feel unfamiliar with the darkness of life, when we are afraid, when we feel like giving up, He will guide us without hesitation as our guide.\u003cbr\u003e The teacher is the one who is by our side, the one who was born to do this, the one who wants us to read 『Hwang Hyeon-san's Small Request』, the one who wants us to do well in the end.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAuthor's Note\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the private sector, the sparrow is commonly called a servant bird.\u003cbr\u003e It is a nickname given to them because they cry out loudly, like cattle being driven to the field, at dusk or around sunrise.\u003cbr\u003e Once upon a time, there was a servant who worked under a harsh master.\u003cbr\u003e The master made his servant work day and night without rest. \u003cbr\u003eThe farmhand who worked the field during the day was made to work the field at night as well.\u003cbr\u003e The servant collapsed from exhaustion and died.\u003cbr\u003e The servant who died and became a servant bird still drives the oxen to the fields in the dusk of the evening and dawn of the dusk of the morning.\u003cbr\u003e But why do servants who suffered so much while alive have to continue to suffer so much even after death?\u003cbr\u003e Now that the body has been liberated from that painful world, shouldn't the soul at least be at peace?\u003cbr\u003e This question is quite solemn.\u003cbr\u003e Because it asks the question of human destiny at its core.\u003cbr\u003e The French poet Baudelaire asked the same question we do in the mid-19th century.\u003cbr\u003e Baudelaire discovers a curious painting among the piles of old books in the old bookstores lining the banks of the Seine River in Paris.\u003cbr\u003e This anatomical diagram, intended to show the human skeleton, shows more than just a bare skull. \u003cbr\u003eThe artist added one of his own ideas to the painting, depicting a skeleton plowing a field with its skeleton upright.\u003cbr\u003e Even for this skeleton who has already become a body in the other world, the suffering of this world is not over yet.\u003cbr\u003e I quote the latter part of this poem, which consists of two verses, although a little long.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e You sad, resigned country bumpkins,\u003cbr\u003e Your spines and skins are peeled off\u003cbr\u003e With all the toil of those muscles,\u003cbr\u003e From the land that is dug and cultivated,\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Speak, you prisoners drawn from the charnel house,\u003cbr\u003e What a strange harvest\u003cbr\u003e will be pulled out, and which farm\u003cbr\u003e Should I fill the light?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e You guys (of such a cruel fate)\u003cbr\u003e (a scary and obvious symbol!), you guys\u003cbr\u003e What I want to show you is that even in the graveyard\u003cbr\u003e The promised sleep is not guaranteed,\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The void is a traitor who turns his back on us,\u003cbr\u003e Everything, even death, deceives us,\u003cbr\u003e Sad! Forever and ever, unchanging,\u003cbr\u003e We must\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In some unknown country \u003cbr\u003eThe rough ground must be peeled off\u003cbr\u003e With our bare feet, our blood flows\u003cbr\u003e Does this mean I have to push through heavy moisturizing?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The skeletons had already entered the realm of death, the realm of nothingness, but the promise of eternal rest with death was not fulfilled.\u003cbr\u003e They are still forced to “pee off the rough ground” in some country unknown to us, and toil with their bleeding bare feet, pushing the plowshares.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e They must continue to do hard labor even after death.\u003cbr\u003e Why are we keeping silent about this injustice?\u003cbr\u003e Isn't it because we ourselves are \"sad, resigned country bumpkins\" who believe that those who suffer are destined to suffer forever?\u003cbr\u003e I call the moment when I suddenly question a contradiction I had never even considered before literary time. \u003cbr\u003eLiterary time is mostly connected to individual lives, but when it is connected to social themes, it becomes historical time.\u003cbr\u003e It is also an aesthetic time, a time of grace, a time of enlightenment.\u003cbr\u003e I have long wondered what literature can do in this world.\u003cbr\u003e I have always been concerned about whether I can do that, especially with French literature, which is only the literature of a distant country.\u003cbr\u003e If I have gained any wisdom of my own, it is thanks to these questions and struggles. This book, a collection of writings I wrote after \"The Night is My Teacher\" and \"Looking at the Sky from a Well,\" is, like the others, a testimony to that struggle.\u003cbr\u003e I would like to express my deepest gratitude to poet Kim Min-jeong of Nanda.\u003cbr\u003e Early summer 2018\u003cbr\u003e Hwang Hyeon-san \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of issue:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 25, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 344 pages | 394g | 152*223*30mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9791188862139\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n \u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e- \u003cstrong\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1188862138 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43894472605738,"sku":"153190","price":23.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/2929378aa8e8e0c7a2a7767f584e6e04.jpg?v=1765434246","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/153190","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
