Scope and Contents
This collection contains the literary archive of Korean-American writer Nak Chung Thun (1875-1953), including the handwritten manuscripts for novels, stories, and essays. The manuscripts are written in an archaic form of Korean hangul, and date from approximately the 1920s and 1930s. There are also some family papers including two yearbooks of Samson Thun from Dinuba Union High School (1924-1925) and the biographical writing of Ellen Thun.
Some of the short stories and essays were removed from two binders for preservation purposes. The binder covers are housed in Box 4.
