This paper tries to examine the works presented between 2012~2013 based on “the continuous understanding of premodern-modern” and “East Asian perspective”. As regards to the continuous understanding of premod- ern-modern, it is very significant to approach in a way that pursuit the rela- tivization of “a developing view of the history or the value of Eurocentrism and perspective of Modernocentrism”. Because premodern and modern has been understood in a disconnected way in non-western history based on Eurocentrism·Modernocentrism, also the perspective that connect the “inheritance of premodern” to modern has been closed. In the past when the phenomenon in western modern period can be found Joseon Dynasty, it was easily to be defined as “premodern” as it was happened before “western impact” or the acceptance of west in academia of Korean history. This is a result of combination of Eurocentrism and Modernocentrism. As regards to East Asian perspective, it is necessary to have a very clear critical mind of what and how can be newly looked over. It could also be understood in a transnational correlation as the process of building the mod- ern nation-states has a close relation to the modern Empire. Or it could be a history method which form East Asian history by exploring combination of tradition and modern, universal and individual in post-modern context. However, it is only possible to get a progressive comprehension in an argu- ment that based on more clear critical mind and point of view.
