[p. 445] THE SUBJECT OF this paper is a collection of essays composed, in the words of the title "as the brush goes," by Sŏp'o, that is, by Kim Manjung (1637-1692). He is well known, as the author of a masterpiece of Korean fiction, the novel Nine Cloud Dream (Kuunmong). He is also credited with another novel, less famous but not less interesting, The Record of a Southern Journey (Namjŏng ki), which is especially well documented and on which I have already published several articles.
