  • This presentation highlights the IAHR book, recently published last April, of which the author is the editor-in-chief, on the historical water projects and traditional water technologies of international interest in the Asian region, addressing information on past water projects (mostly before the 20th century) in the regions that are technically and culturally of interest and educationally valuable. The book explores historical water projects in these regions, presenting technologies used at the time, including calculation and forecasting methods, measurement, material, labor, methodologies, and even water culture. Through this book, it is expected that the old Asian wisdom of "reviewing the old and learning the new" would be realized to a certain extent in modern planning and practice of water projects. The book comprises a lead article that the presenter authored and five Parts representing China, Japan, Korea, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, respectively, followed by an invited one from Uzbekistan. Throughout the book, it is found that historically the Asian monsoon, affecting the Indian subcontinent and Southeast and East Asian regions, induced rice cultivation. It fundamentally needs proper irrigation systems, including reservoirs (dams) and canals, water wheels, and even rain gauges. Flood risks have been more common in Asia than Europe under this climate condition, as recognized in history. To utilize and sometimes overcome these climate conditions, people built and managed many historical and grandiose water projects and invented and used localized but sophisticated water-related technologies in the Asian region.

  • This study explores the original text of a Korean recipe book written in the 17th century, which is hitherto unknown to food-related societies, and analyzes the characteristics of the recipes in this book. Choi's recipes in Jasonbojoen (子孫寶傳) are significant, as it is a rare instance of a Korean cookbook written by a woman-few pre-17th century recipe books of this type are known to have survived. This study made some important discoveries after analyzing this book. First, by using pasqueflower and cockscomb, it was possible to identify the era-specific characteristics of kimchi recipes from the 1400s until after the 1700s. Second, this book has historical value, as it shows that the combination of kimchi with cockscomb and the recipe for stuffed eggplant kimchi made only with a small portion of garlic and salt have existed for longer than was previously believed. Third, this book can serve as a valuable database for studies on historical changes in Korean food recipes, as the recipes in this book besides those related to kimchi are representative of recipes in cookbooks before the 17th century. Additionally, it appears that some recipes in the book use very unique minor ingredients that cannot be found in other books.

  • 본 연구는 영화 <자산어보>(2021)가 19세기 성리학적 질서가 흔들리며 서서히 몰락해가는 조선을 어떤 방식으로 재현하고 있는지를 분석을 통해 살펴보기 위해 기획되었다. 분석에 앞서 역사극의 내레이션 특성을 고려하여 역사극의 분석틀을 제시하였다. 우리는 역사극의 분석틀을 활용하여 <자산어보>가 유배 서사의 플롯 구조를 기반으로 정약전, 장창대가 시대의 한계와 가능성 사이에서 주체적 개인으로 자신의 삶을 살아가는 모습을 재현하고 있음을 확인하였다. 흑백과 컬러 이미지의 대비, 보이스 오버 내레이션의 적극적 활용, 한시 자막과 음악 등으로 만들어낸 중심기억과 잉여기억을 통해 영화는 주체적 개인으로 살아가기 위해 필요한 것이 무엇인지에 관한 보편적인 질문을 우리에게 던지고 있다.

  • 이 연구는 그림책작가 홍성찬의 작품 활동과 그림의 특징, 작가정신을 고찰함으로써 한국그림책역사에서 그림책작가 1세대로 자리매김한 홍성찬의 의미를 살펴보는데 목적이 있다. 1955년에 삽화가로 활동을 시작해서 2012년, 마지막 그림책을 낼 때까지 홍성찬이 걸어온 길은 한국그림책의 발전과정과 궤를 같이한다. 그는 삽화가라는 직업이 주목받지 못하던 시절부터 전집 시절을 거쳐 그림책작가로 생을 마감할 때까지 일관되게 출판일러스트에 전념하였다. 그 결과 철저한 고증(考證)을 통한 한국 고유의 이미지와 정서 재현이라는 독보적인 작품세계를 구축하였다. 그가 일생 동안 견지한 삽화정신과 장인정신은 전업 그림책작가라는 직업군 탄생의 밑거름이 되었고 홍성찬은 한국그림책역사에서 그림책작가 1세대로 자리매김을 하였다.

  • Myanmar, also known as Burma, has a rich cultural heritage, and its historical tourist attractions well known around the world. Therefore, we designed and developed an interactive spatial augmented reality (iSAR) book on the cultural heritage of Myanmar. This iSAR book has total of 18 pages with rich media content including videos, animations, audio, and images featuring the cultural heritage of Myanmar in a digital format. In addition to virtual content, navigational features such as virtual buttons and touch-based hand gestures were implemented using Leap Motion and VVVV. Therefore, the developed iSAR book allows virtual content and navigational features to merge seamlessly into a physical book. Five participants were recruited to evaluate the prototype iSAR book, and interviews were conducted to gather their feedback based on its immersive qualities. Thus, the developed iSAR book on Myanmar effectively shares the cultural heritage of Myanmar, and ultimately allows users to explore and gain more insight into the country.

  • Oriental medicine, since its origin in China, has had a long history extending over 2000 years. Today, it comprises several types of medicine predominately practiced in East Asia, including traditional Chinese, traditional Korean, and Kampo medicine. The distinctive medical system of traditional Korean medicine was established shortly after the publication of Donguibogam by Dr. Heo Jun in 1613. Donguibogam is highly acclaimed across East Asia; in 2009, in light of its historical medical value, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization registered the book on its cultural heritage list. Here, we review the historical medical value of Donguibogam. The findings confirm that Donguibogam developed a unique and independent form of traditional Korean medicine and innovatively reformed the disease classification system. Moreover, Donguibogam emphasized the importance of disease prevention and medical pragmatism. This book also accelerated the development of folk medicine. Owing to its historical medical value, Donguibogam is now considered the 'bible' of Oriental medicine. Its wide acceptance has contributed to the expansion of Korean medicine utilization among the general public. Donguibogam has also played an important role in the establishment of traditional Korean medicine as a universally valid and original form of medicine, independent of traditional Chinese medicine.
