Pottery-making techniques were transmitted from China to Korea over 1000 years ago, where they flourished and produced an artistic tradition of which Koreans are justifiably proud. This course will enable you to feel the subtle beauty and unique the celadon pottery. White porcelain was being produced in the Korean peninsula during the Koryo dynasty (918-1392), but it was during the Choson dynasty that it flourished. Buddhism was the royal religion of the Koryo dynasty, while Confucianism became the political and cultural driving force of the Choson dynasty. It is possible that white porcelain was favoured at this time, as its purity of colour could be associated with the Confucian virtues of humility and simplicity.
