Abstract

and general categories. The stories individual Koreans tell can offerdiverse lenses and perspectives to us viewing in and out of the broad conceptsand categories of the schema that has been used to describe religions in Korea.As here and elsewhere, we should be aware that our established habits of classi-fication lead us fairly often to apply an old scheme when the case it is applied tois new, even when the case does call for us to devise a novel way of understand-ing. Taking a closer look at stories, or cases is one of the few ways available forus to go beyond our entrenched scheme of concepts and categories.7
