Description: How does war affect humanity's view of culture, history, and national identity? We will turn these questions toward the disastrous Imjin War (1592-98) which embroiled China, Japan and Korea. Investigating East Asia before, during, and after this conflict, will explore how the Imjin War created modern East Asia.
