Abstract: Brief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This document contains some interesting information on
upper-class styles of life and characteristic privileges. Further data on the integration
of ancestor worship and the class structure is included. The over-all treatment is sketchy,
yet the information, in most respects, agrees with other sources and in some areas extends
the range of information on the yangban class in Korea. A brief discussion of the
examination system, educational practices, and talent mobility is also interwoven into the
text.
