George Kallander is studying political identity and cultural practices in Korea’s Koryo˘ dynasty (918–1392) to demonstrate how the peninsula was affected by regional dynamics. Using examples of the royal hunt, he explores how debates among scholars about proper conduct stemmed from tensions surrounding Korea’s contact with regional and Eurasian empires.
