Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information Comprising more than 36 English-language newspapers from the British Library’s prestigious Asia, Pacific, and Africa collections, Part VII of the British Library Newspapers series is an invaluable resource for scholars teaching and studying the British Empire, the colonial and postcolonial history of Southeast Asia, and the history of journalism and publishing in general. On its own, Part VII offers an essential window into the lives of both the settlers and indigenes, showcasing how the colonial administrations of the British Empire interacted with the native population and promoted the ideas of Western knowledge, culture, and institutions. When combined with Parts I to VI of its parent series, it provides countless possibilities to explore how the opinions of British government representatives, merchants, and locals of Southeast Asia interacted with and, sometimes, clashed against each other in the larger context of the British Empire. Further Information These newspapers and periodicals—which were usually founded and run by colonial officials, Western merchants, missionaries, and local entrepreneurs and educated elites—played an important part in these countries during both the colonial and postcolonial periods: facilitating the colonial administration; promoting the spread of Western knowledge, culture, and institutions; providing a “contact point” between the settlers/colonists and the native people; and raising the awareness among local population of nationalism and anti-colonialism. This digital archive contains a total of 36 English-language newspapers and periodicals—with approximately 1 million pages (majority on film)—selected from the prestigious British Library’s abundant Asia, Pacific & Africa collections, covering a period of approximately 170 years (1806–1977). This is the first time these rare historical English newspapers and periodicals originally published in these four Southeast Asian countries are assembled for digitisation. The digitised collection provides a rare and invaluable collection for all those teaching and studying in the fields of History, Area Studies, Political Science, Economics, Journalism, Anthropology, and Sociology. This archive consists of 36 English-language newspapers and periodicals published during 1806–1977. Some standout examples are:
