Synopsis

Excerpt from Korea: The Mongol Invasions

The development of any society is, of course, continuous, but for the purposes of study I have found it convenient to treat the subject at hand in two natural divisions. The Mongol invasions of Korea in the thirteenth century as a development in Korean history form the subject of the present study. It is my intention to treat, in a separate work, the full extension of Mongol control in Korea which followed the period of conquest and with which I have dealt only summarily if at all in these pages. For the period covered I have, how ever, considered the question oi the form and nature of Mongol demands upon Koryo as well as the implementation of these demands as an illustration of Mongol methods of establishing control in and extracting wealth from con quered nations. The reciprocal of this was the Koryo response to Mongol de mands and pressures which was obviously limited and guided by her internal situation as well as her external relations.
