-Abstract-
Dr. Eva Field(1868-1932) was an American missionary doctor who came to Korea in
1898. She worked at Je Joong Won which was formerly named Khwang Hye Won.
Since it was considered a shame for a Korean woman to be seen by a unknown man
and even more unthinkable being touched by him, the existence of women doctors were
necessary in treating Korean women. Dr Field played an important role in treating
Korean women. This is the diary that she had kept during her stay in Korea. It
provides valuable information on Korea 100 years ago, Je Joong Won and the life in
missionary society.
