Description
Korean Buddhism: History — Condition — Art, Three Lectures by Frederick Starr is a concise yet informative work based on lectures he delivered after visiting Korea in the early 20th century. The book explores the historical development of Buddhism in Korea, its status during Starr’s time (under Japanese occupation), and its artistic expressions—particularly temple architecture and sculpture. Blending travel observation with scholarly analysis, Starr provides valuable early Western insight into Korean religious and cultural heritage.
