| Summary | "The History of Korea (vol. 1 of 2)" by Homer B. Hulbert is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work aims to provide a comprehensive narrative of Korea's history, focusing on native sources and the development of Korean civilization from ancient times to just before the turn of the century. The book likely covers significant events, traditions, and figures that shaped the Korean peninsula, particularly focusing on the foundational stories and dynasties that characterize its rich history. At the start of the publication, the author sets the stage for a detailed exploration of Korea's ancient and medieval history. The opening discusses the importance of Korean historical records, the geographical and climatic context of the peninsula, and the origins of its inhabitants. It introduces foundational figures such as Tan-gun, the legendary founder of Korea, and Ki-ja, who played a pivotal role in establishing the state's early governance. The discussion points to the interaction between myth and history while emphasizing Korea's early sovereign status and cultural identity amidst external influences and invasions.
