Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023

• Analyses comparatively a range of understandings about Korean women and their agency in the premodern world from a range of sources, written, visual and material sites, enabling students to see how different sources can enable historians to piece together the history of women. • Brings into dialogue contemporary sources about Korean women from Joseon Korea, Tokugawa Japan, the Dutch East India Company and the Jesuits in their global activities, showing students how events in early modern Korea reached into the rest of Asia and Europe through networks and the influence this had, to inform their studies. • Presents new analyses and information about both individual women, and women as a cohort, to English-speaking scholars and students, allowing them to see the importance of studying the lives of premodern women and those beyond Europe, even if their studies are Europe focused.
