[KS] First digital issue of East Asian History

[Remco Breuker]

Dear colleagues,

I have the pleasure to announce to you the 37th issue of *East Asian History
*, which is also the journal's first digital issue at
www.eastasianhistory.org.

*East Asian History *is an international refereed journal publishing
scholarly research on all aspects of historical studies in East Asia. This
new online format enables authors to include sound and film files and
photomedia within their articles, enlarging the journal’s scope into fields
of historical documentation, such as cinema or music history, previously
limited by print publishing.

This online form of *East Asian History *is a collaboration between The
Australian Centre on China in the World and the School of Culture, History
and Language at the Australian National University <http://www.anu.edu.au/> and
the Leiden University Institute of Area Studies at Leiden
University<http://www.leiden.edu/> in
The Netherlands, and is jointly edited by Remco Breuker (Leiden) and
Benjamin Penny (ANU). The editorial board comprises three scholars from
each university: Geremie R. Barmé (ANU), Katarzyna Cwiertka (Leiden), Roald
Maliangkay (ANU), Ivo Smits (Leiden), Tessa Morris-Suzuki (ANU) and Barend
ter Haar (Leiden).

*East Asian History* was published in print from 1991 to 2008 (issues
1-36), and was edited by Geremie R. Barmé (to 2007), and Benjamin Penny
(from 2007). The journal’s predecessor, *Papers on Far Eastern History*,
was published by The Australian National University’s Research School of
Pacific and Asian Studies from 1970 to 1990. When *Papers on Far Eastern
History* became *East Asian History *the new journal employed an original
and striking format that the new online version of the journal has adapted
and developed in the new medium.

*East Asian History* will be published twice each year. Articles published
in the journal are submitted to double-blind peer review unless otherwise
stated. Final selection of papers is at the discretion of the editors.

Please see the contents of this issue listed below. Of interest for Korean
Studies are Roald Maliangkay's article on South Korean musicians performing
for foreign troops and *Modern Times*, the digital exhibition about the
development of Korean mass culture during the colonial period. The digital
exhibition was inspired (and overlaps with) the current exhibition in the
Dutch Museum for Ethnology in Leiden (www.volkenkunde.nl) with the same
title.
