Editor:
Western Journalists on Japan, China and Greater East Asia, 1897-1956, planned as a collection in four series of 10-volume sets, offers a significant primary source of journalistic memoir and journalism relating to East Asia, Japan's brief empire in South-East Asia, civil war and communist unification in China and the Cold War in East Asia over a period of six decades. With a Foreword by Waseda Universityâs Tsuchiya Reiko and a General Introduction by Series Editor Peter OâConnor, each Series contextualises dispatches to Western newspapers and highlights on-the-spot reports and memoirs from Anglophone Western and Asian journalists based in East and South-East Asia and writing for locally-published English-language newspapers. Series 2: Pioneering Women Journalists, 1919-1949 comprises 16 full-length volumes (c.4100 pages), opening with Ellen La Motteâs Peking Dust (1919) and concluding with Anna Louise Strongâs The Chinese Conquer China (1949).
Peter O'Connor, Ph.D. (London) and Professor, Musashino University, Tokyo, has published papers and edited collections on the international media history of East Asia. His highly-regarded monograph, The English-language Press Networks of East Asia, 1918-1945 was published by Global Oriental in 2011.
