Through an unwavering commitment to a child's perspective, Clara Han explores how the catastrophic event of the Korean War is dispersed into domestic life. Han writes from inside her childhood memories as the daughter of parents who were displaced by war, who fled from the North to the South of Korea, and whose displacement in Korea and subsequent migration to the United States implicated the fraying and suppression of kinship relations and the Korean language. At the same time, Han writes as an anthropologist whose fieldwork has taken her to the devastated worlds of her parents—to Korea and to the Korean language—allowing her, as she explains, to find and found kinship relationships that had been suppressed or broken in war and illness. A fascinating counterpoint to the project of testimony that seeks to transmit a narrative of the event to future generations, \u003ci\u003eSeeing Like a Child\u003c\/i\u003e sees the inheritance of familial memories of violence as embedded in how the child inhabits her everyday life.\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eSeeing Like a Child\u003c\/i\u003e offers readers a unique experience—an intimate engagement with the emotional reality of migration and the inheritance of mass displacement and death—inviting us to explore categories such as \"catastrophe,\" \"war,\" \"violence,\" and \"kinship\" in a brand-new light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword by Richard Rechtman\u003c\/i\u003e   ix\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/b\u003e   1\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePart I: \u003c\/b\u003eLoss and Awakenings   35\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eInterlude 1: Affliction and War \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003ein the Domestic \u003c\/i\u003e  61\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePart II:\u003c\/b\u003e A Future in Kinship, a Future in Language   65\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eInterlude 2: Homeward Bound\u003c\/i\u003e   87\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePart III:\u003c\/b\u003e The Kids   93\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eInterlude 3: Siblings and the Scene \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eof Inheritance\u003c\/i\u003e   119\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePart IV:\u003c\/b\u003e Mother Tongue   125\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eEpilogue:\u003c\/b\u003e Seeing Like a Child   153\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/i\u003e   157\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eNotes\u003c\/i\u003e   161\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eWorks Cited\u003c\/i\u003e   167\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Fordham University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52580426023192,"sku":"9780823289455","price":64.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/seeing-like-a-child-inheriting-the-korean-war-hardback-9780823289455","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
