About This Book

Un auteur voyageur présente la Corée par des observations précises de Séoul : maisons de bois et de paille, cours intérieures, toitures et techniques de construction modestes; il décrit ensuite les physionomies et les silhouettes des habitants, les conditions et les tâches des femmes, ainsi que les habitudes vestimentaires marquées par le blanc et les coiffures soignées. Le tableau général montre une société simple et paisible où pauvreté et dignité quotidienne coexistent.
