burdens
further along in history they will consider our writings. they will be fascinated at how emotional we were about things that nobody will ever understand. and how we really struggled nobly. some few, they will say, did not indulge in moments.
"A few words should be said about privately cast types of the Yi dynasty. There are many records and printed examples in witness of the existence of privately made movable types throughout the Yi dynasty. They were mostly made of wood, but clay and metal were also used. These private types are not so neat as those made by the government. It must be noticed, however, that many small country schools at the end of the Yi dynasty had wooden types to print text books for their own use.
In old Korea, official printing was done by several specialists on the basis of a division of labor under a printing official. The printing official had the entire responsibility for the whole process of printing, and had to be alert not to overlook any misprints in order to avoid the corporal punishment of beating the hip."
