Autorenporträt

Yi Ok (1760-1813) is a poet and literary man in the late Chos¿n period. His pen name is Munmuja. As a student of S¿ngkyunkwan, he passed Classics Licentiate Examination in 1790. As a leader in the new literary movement called sop'ummun, essays on minor subjects, he was punished to serve a military service by King Ch¿ngjo. He gave up his ambition to pass civil service examination and devoted his life on studying and writing. Yi composed works of diverse genres in experimental styles and is thus regarded as a best writer of odes. His writings could survive because Kim Ry¿ (1766-1822), his friend, collected his posthumous works. Yi's works were contained in Posthumous Writings of Kim Ry¿, called Tamj¿ngyugo.
