Full Description

Project narrative

In 2015 the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) donates $12,000 to the East Asian Library of the University of Washington to digitize the Wu Xianzi papers in their physical collection. The Wu Xianzi papers was an archival collection held by UW, consisting of diaries, correspondence, poems, essays, newspaper clippings, and private collections of Wu Xianzi (1881-1959), an influential journalist and political reformist in China in the 20th century. The collection was housed in 16 boxes and for this digitization project, the library will work in collaboration with the Institute of Modern Chinese History of the Academy of Social Sciences of China.
