by Youngsook Pak and Roderick Whitfield Anglophone Koreaphiles have long been hurting for something substantial about Korean celadon (cheongja) and earthenware (togi). When the world think of Korean art, it is usually Goryeo and Joseon period celadon that comes to mind, and yet until now, non-academics have had little more than tourist pamphlets to guide them. The first in a five-volume series on Korean art, "Handbook of Korean Art: Earthenware and Celadon" answers this need. While certainly not exhaustive, it will not be surpassed for years to come. Complete with ample pictures as well as descriptions of techniques, kiln sites in the country, a glossary, pattern catalogue, and more.
