[SNU Library] Embarking on the Quest for a Literary Scholar's Treasure: Invitation to the Inaugural Exhibition of Kwon Youngmin's Personal Collection

Oct 25, 2023 - Dec 15, 2023

Join us on October 25, 2023, at 2:00 PM, as we unveil the opening ceremony of the exhibition, "Embarking on the Quest for a Literary Scholar's Treasure: In Celebration of the Installation of Kwon Youngmin's Personal Collection," at the Gwanjeongmaru in the SNU Library.

This showcase will feature rare literary treasures generously donated by Professor Kwon Youngmin, including the first edition of Jung Jiyong's "Baekrokdam" and the fifth edition of Lee Kwangsoo's "Mujeong," making their public debut. Additionally, in commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the installation of the personal collection, representative documents from the Library's collection, such as "Samganghaengsilto" from the Joseon Dynasty and the 16th-century edition of Thomas Aquinas's "Summa Theologica," will be displayed.

As autumn is bathed in a warm glow, we invite your keen interest in this exhibition, where Kwon Youngmin's personal collection and the historical documents of the Central Library's 70-year legacy will be showcased together.

Kindly anticipate the splendor of this exhibition and we look forward to your presence.
