Rezensionen
“A fascinating and pathbreaking work of scholarship that combines historical, social science, and cultural analysis to shatter a host of shibboleths about Korean sexuality and relationships, gives voice to the voiceless, and brings Korean queerness fully into the mainstream of Korean and East Asian studies!”
-- Carter J. Eckert, author of Park Chung Hee and Modern Korea: The Roots of Militarism, 1866–1945
“The contributors elegantly limn the messy boundaries and porous enclosures of the heteronormative and the ‘queer’, putting into sharp relief the relatively unexplored areas of non-normative Korea. Queer Korea is full of remarkable interventions and exciting possibilities, and its contributors deploy Korean cultural and historical experiences for an energized critique of queer theory.”
-- Martin F. Manalansan IV, author of Global Divas: Filipino Gay Men in the Diaspora
“Queer Korea sets a very high standard for future scholarship on Korea that productively engages with queer theory and the globalization of queer studies. With the appearance of this book … teachers too are now well-positioned to offer courses on the intersections of queer culture and modern Korean history.”
-- Samuel Perry European Journal of Korean Studies
"The text has something to offer all students of Korean or Asian studies. Above all, this book succeeds in its primary goal of engaging a queer studies audience seeking to understand the crucial context Korea provides as a site of colonial and postcolonial modernity."
-- S. G. Jug Choice
“Queer Korea bridges the gap between Korean studies and queer studies by decentering both from their disciplinary limitations—Korean studies from its ethnonationalist and heteronormative assumptions, and queer studies from its focus on identity politics privileging the United States and other Euro-American liberal societies.... Queer Korea is an instant classic....”
-- So-Rim Lee Journal of Korean Studies
"The new anthology Queer Korea . . . is, without doubt, a remarkable and long overdue scholarly effort that fundamentally advances the development and diversity of Asian queer studies in the post-2020 era. . . . Queer Korea is an illuminating, theoretically robust, and beautifully written scholarly work. . . .”
-- Jamie J. Zhao Journal of Asian Studies
“The essays in Todd A. Henry’s masterful edited collection explore queerness...as a site to theorize and critique the fundamentally heteropatriarchal nature of South Korean society.... Queer Korea will, I believe, become a seminal text on gender and sexuality in Korea that will energize the theorization and practice of ethnographers of Korea and Asia for many years to come.”
-- Thomas Baudinette Asian Ethnology
“Queer Korea reads Korean modern history through a queer lens.... Ultimately, this queer reading proves a significant endeavour for interpreting history in a dense and multilayered way, which allows us to understand it more profoundly and thoroughly.”
-- Kyungtae Kim Pacific Affairs
“Queer Korea is a monumental collection of essays. . . . Queer Korea is the first of its kind, a collective effort to write same-sex relations and gender transgressions into Korean history.”
-- Wenqing Kang Harvard Journal of Asiatic Studies
