Available exclusively from Cheng & Tsui, the four series published by ISEAS provide scholars with a rich body of high quality, multilingual source materials on the histories, cultures, literatures, and religions of East Asia. These original papers reflect the creative research of scholars trained in multiple languages who have utilized source documents in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean for the study of various topics in East Asian history. Especially valuable is the comparative analysis among East Asian societies and between East Asia and Europe that this type of research allows, and that these books reflect. Unless otherwise noted, all books are primarily in English, with references in Chinese and Japanese for important terms, concepts and bibliographical sources throughout.
