New Resource: 19th Century British Pamphlets

Historical pamphlets are important, but hard-to-find primary sources that shed light on the key political, social, and environmental issues of the period when they were produced.

The JStor collection brings together over 20,000 pamphlets from seven U.K. insitutions, and is of great research value to scholars and students who study the socio-political and economic landscape of the 19th-century Britain. Of course, because of the interwovenness of the relationship between Britain and East Asia (esp. China) during the 19th century, the collection offers rich historical information on topics such as the Opium War, trade issues between Asia and Britain, and so on. Below is a selected list of pamphlets devoted to issues surrounding China, which is used just to showcase the collection's relevance to EAS:
