From National History to Subject in Writing: Reading the Colonial Korean Poet Yoon Dong-ju with the Zainichi Korean Writer Yi Yang-ji
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The year 2017 marked the centennial of the birth of the Korean poet Yoon Dong-ju (1917-1945), with numerous events held to commemorate his life and poetry in the historical context of Japanese colonial rule and Korean national resistance. Against the backdrop of this public valorisation of a private individual—celebration of the particular—I propose to highlight the properly universal question of the speaking/writing subject, which constitutes the very literary property of Yoon’s legacy. Yoon’s significance as a literary subject acquires a definite shape when he is juxtaposed with Yi Yang-ji (1955-92), a second-generation zainichi Korean writer, whose authorial strivings confronted a different historical context but nonetheless harboured the same questions that drove Yoon’s poetics. Reading side by side Yoon and Yi, I demonstrate how the problem of (post)colonial national history ought to, and can only, be finally engaged and resolved as subjective process and arrival.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
