AB - First of all, the present study attempts to shed light on the need for classical Korean novels to be widely read and appreciated by college students. Accordingly, the study suggests that classical novels should be taught in university liberal arts courses, so that students can have glimpses of the lifestyle of the past days as well as values and desires pursued by the contemporary women readers through the depictions of various aspects of human life in these works. Secondly, this study recommends some topics to be taught in these courses concerning the living culture in which women in classical Korean novels existed. The topics derived are: 1) women's domestic duties and lifestyle in general; 2) their relationships with other family members;and 3) their entertainments and leisure activities. Learning about details of everyday life that Korean women led in the past, students can gain insight on the lifestyle and values treasured at that time by the community the students belong to now. In addition, they will be able to empathize with the ancient women as members of the same race, and this insight will lead them to reflect on their positions in their own families. In terms of literary appreciation as well, they will be able to enjoy the narrative charm of classical novels, in which heightened conflict or tension is resolved or lessened by ensuing episodes of merrymaking and entertainments.
