Fyodor Dostoevsky, from a letter featured in Letters of Fyodor Michailovitch Dostoevsky to his Family & Friends

In-ho’s books.

Does anyone who speaks Korean happen to know what it says on his shelves? This is season 1 episode 2. The time stamp is around 28:45. I’ve managed to work these out:

Fiction

Catcher in the Rye by J.D Salinger

Basic Writings of Nietzche

Desire and its interpretations by Jacques Lacan

3 Unknown (appear to be fiction, titles are Korean, sit next to Van Gogh)

1 Unknown (first book from left next to Nietzche’s)

Seminar XI: Four Basic Concepts of Psychoanalysis by Jacques Lacan (credit: afterubleedout-blog for finding it)

Visual

Picasso’s Blue and Rose Period

Van Gogh: The Complete Collection

A Claude Monet book (unclear)

Renée Margritte’s Empires of Light (I believe a picture of her paintings is also hanging on his wall)

There is another shelf on the top left with more books but I think it would be virtually impossible to recognize them unless you already knew it by the spines.

““When I was about 20 years old, I met an old pastor’s wife who told me that when she was young and had her first child, she didn’t believe in striking children, although spanking kids with a switch pulled from a tree was standard punishment at the time. But one day, when her son was four or five, he did something that she felt warranted a spanking–the first in his life. She told him that he would have to go outside himself and find a switch for her to hit him with. The boy was gone a long time. And when he came back in, he was crying. He said to her, “Mama, I couldn’t find a switch, but here’s a rock that you can throw at me.” All of a sudden the mother understood how the situation felt from the child’s point of view: that if my mother wants to hurt me, then it makes no difference what she does it with; she might as well do it with a stone. And the mother took the boy into her lap and they both cried. Then she laid the rock on a shelf in the kitchen to remind herself forever: never violence. And that is something I think everyone should keep in mind. Because if violence begins in the nursery one can raise children into violence.””

— Astrid Lindgren, author of Pippi Longstocking, 1978 Peace Prize Acceptance Speech (via jillymomcraftypants)
