EDUCATION OF WOMEN IN KOREA AT THE EVE OF THE 20TH CENTURY
Abstract
The end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century are the period of acquaintance with Western culture and Christianity for Korean women. At the same time, the traditional social order and Confucianism, which was strict and bigoted towards women, could not justify itself in the process of integration that began after 1876. As the opportunities for Korean intellectuals to go outside Korea increased, they realized that the problems were not only in economic or political life, but also the social and cultural situation was deplorable. In this place, it was considered that the process of implementing reforms would not bring any benefits as women would be left out of education. This article examines how women’s education was at a time when new ideas began to enter and how the situation changed with the beginning of the reforms, using contemporary sources, works of Korean and other researchers.
