		<description>Also to renote, google book search has a TREASURE CHEST full of pre-1930s or so books you can read online or download for free.

There is A TON of stuff on East Asia and Korea.

The books by Japanese authors on Japan's position in East Asia and reasons for approaching Korea from around 1900-1920 are ones people here would love to read, I'm sure.

If you are into English literature or world religions/philosophy, there are tons of material by well-known but pre-post modern authors available.  Things like James Legge's translations and academic work on Confucianism and other Chinese classical works - including stuff you can't really find even in a good university library in the US.

If you like things like William Blake's poetry and designs - it's gold.

Or books written in the 16 and 1700s...</description>

		<description>I've had a membership for the archives for some months now, and I've gotten a good bit of the stuff up at the blog www.usinkorea.org/blog1

There is one really funny item from the late 1800s about one of the first unofficial official visits to the US by top level Koreans, maybe even royal family, if I could remember clearly, where they went home after a month or so because of the culture shock.  I believe it was in that article that they mentioned something about kids throwing mud at the delegation when it was traveling in Ohio or some such place.

I was poking around various key dates in Korean history with my alloted monthly limit (100 articles) for awhile, but when the anniversary of the start of the Korean War came around, I switched to a day-to-day coverage of it, and it uses up all my time and pay-per-view articles.

I have to use screen shots to grab sections from the articles, so load times might be slow for some longer posts...

The sheer amount of notes on infiltrators at the start of the war and around the time of the Nogunri Massacre are interesting for anybody interested in that item....</description>

Morehouse School of Management?

Modeling and Simulation of Microsystems?

Manhattan School of Music?

Monster Skateboard Magazine?

or just another functionally useless infra acronym?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;“Chosen might also be a good search word for Korea related articles.”

No it wouldn’t. Although it may mean “Korea” in japanese, remember, it is also a frequently used English word with a totally different meaning.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

One way to get around the problem of dual meanings is to use other specific key words and take advantage of the "oldest first" sort function.  I tried that and still came up with quite a few unrelated results.  I did enjoy this story:

The Buddhist Religion:  It is explained by a Chinaman
http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&#38;res=9903E5DC123FE63BBC4850DFB266838C669FDE&#38;oref=slogin

The language of these old stories makes modern MSM writing seem so dry and colorless.</description>
