Japanese Scholars of China A Bibliographical Handbook

This Handbook leads to a wealth of bibliographical and biographical information about more than 1,500 20th-century Japanese scholars of China. Offers accurate readings of scholars' names, short characterizations of their areas of specialization, and indexes references to them in four other volumes. It includes as many bibliographies as possible of the work of individual Japanese China scholars, and includes hundreds of Japanese-language books and articles about them, as well as Festschriften dedicated to them. Pays special attention to English and other Western-language material about their scholarship: book-length translations, book reviews, and summaries. As numerous scholars included in the Handbook are of importance to the study of Japan, Korea and other parts of Asia, the volume will benefit students of these areas as well.Wixted, John T. is the author of 'Japanese Scholars of China A Bibliographical Handbook' with ISBN 9780773495715 and ISBN 0773495711.
