Prisoners of Pavlov: Korean War Captivity and the Brainwashing Scare -- Epilogue: Returns and Repercussions -- Abbreviations -- Notes -- Bibliography -- IndexThis provocative history of early cold war America recreates a time when World War III seemed imminent. Headlines were dominated by stories of Soviet slave laborers, brainwashed prisoners in Korea, and courageous escapees like Oksana Kasenkina who made a "leap for freedom" from the Soviet Consulate in New York. Full of fascinating and forgotten stories, Cold War Captives explores a central dimension of American culture and politics-the postwar preoccupation with captivity. "Menticide," the calculated destruction of individual autonomy, struck many Americans as a more immediate danger than nuclear annihilation. Drawing upon a rich array of declassified documents, movies, and reportage-from national security directives to films like The Manchurian Candidate-his book explores the ways in which east-west disputes over prisoners, repatriation, and defection shaped popular culture. Captivity became a way to understand everything from the anomie of suburban housewives to the "slave world" of drug addiction. Sixty years later, this era may seem distant. Yet, with interrogation techniques derived from America's communist enemies now being used in the "war on terror," the past remains powerfully present.Popular cultureUnited StatesHistory20th centuryCold WarSocial aspectsUnited StatesCaptivity narrativesPolitical prisonersHistory20th centuryRepatriationHistory20th centuryDefectionHistory20th centuryBrainwashingHistory20th centuryCold War in mass mediaCold War in motion picturesCold War in literatureElectronic books.Popular cultureHistoryCold WarSocial aspectsCaptivity narratives.Political prisonersHistoryRepatriationHistoryDefectionHistoryBrainwashingHistoryCold War in mass media.Cold War in motion pictures.Cold War in literature.909.82/5Carruthers Susan L(Susan Lisa)527556MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996472056203316Cold War captives2664374UNISA03944nam 2200589 450 991081462780332120230617013506.01-4629-1613-9(CKB)3710000000274783(EBL)1811346(SSID)ssj0001412182(PQKBManifestationID)11747480(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001412182(PQKBWorkID)11408794(PQKB)10420299(MiAaPQ)EBC1811346(Au-PeEL)EBL1811346(CaPaEBR)ebr10941775(CaONFJC)MIL800135(OCoLC)902416044(EXLCZ)99371000000027478320141002h20042004 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrMaking out in Korean /by Peter ConstantineRevised edition.Tokyo, Japan ;Rutland, Vermont :Tuttle Publishing,2004.©20041 online resource (272 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-8048-4354-6 Cover; Copyright; Contents; Introduction; 1 What's Up?; 2 Basic Phrases; 3 Got a Minute?; 4 Hey There!; 5 Look at That!; 6 Coming and Going; 7 Eat, Drink, Be Merry!; 8 I Like It!; 9 Curses and Insults; 10 Party Talk; 11 Getting Serious; 12 On the Phone; 13 On the Computer; 14 Lover's Language; 15 Farewell; Back CoverMaking Out in Korean is a fun, accessible and thorough Korean phrasebook and guide to the Korean language as it's really spoken. Nan neoga joa michigesseo! Uri tto mannalkka? --(I'm crazy about you! Shall we meet again?) Answer this correctly in Korean and you may be going on a hot date. Incorrectly, and you could be hurting someone's feelings or getting a slap! Korean classes and textbooks tend to spend a lot of time rehearsing for the same fictitious scenarios but chances are while in Korea you will spend a lot more time trying to make new friends or start new romances--something you may not be prepared for. If you are a student, businessman or tourist traveling to South Korea or North Korea and would like to have an authentic and meaningful experience, the key is being able to speak like a local. This friendly and easy-to-use Korean phrase book makes this possible. Making out in Korean has been carefully designed to act as a guide to modern colloquial Korean for use in everyday informal interactions--giving access to the sort of catchy Korean expressions that aren't covered in traditional language materials. As well as the Romanized forms (romanji), each expression is given in authentic Korean script (hangul), so that in the case of difficulties the book can be shown to the person the user is trying to communicate with. In addition, easy-to-use phonetic spellings of all Korean words and phrases are given. For example How are you? -- annyeonghaseyo? is also written as anh-nyawng-hah-seyo? This Korean phrasebook includes: A guide to pronouncing Korean words correctly. Explanations of basic Korean grammar, such as, word order, questions, and formal vs. informal tenses.
