4.0 out of 5 stars Athens Vs Sparta, March 13, 2010

This review is from: Art of the Korean Renaissance, 1400-1600 (Metropolitan Museum of Art) (Hardcover)
This book was purchased to compare paintings on sliding doors and screens in Korea compared to those in Japan. However the most interesting conclusion in this book is the direction Korea took in the renaissance period to become a lay society based on Chinese scholarship and to reduce the power of Buddhist temples and the military, becoming thus Athens vs Japan's Sparta. Too bad that many art works of the period no longer exist.
