Publication circumstances
and short info on the publisher

Example:

  1. <settingDesc>
  2.   <p>According to Kawase’s preface: The author Okamoto was a great sinologist who turned away from politics because his views differed too much from those of others. He engaged in education instead. On a first visit to China in Meiji 7 or 8 (1874/75), Okamoto visited Luoyang and wrote the famous book Bankoku Shiki萬國史記 (1879, Account of World History). After twenty years, when Japan became strong and China weak, Okamoto wanted to improve the situation of China, and wrote this book for this aim.</p>
  3.   <p>The publisher Shanghai yinshuguan (Commercial Press) was founded in 1897, four years before the book was published. Shanghai yinshuguan later became a very influential press, publishing primary and secondary education textbooks, dictionaries, as well as important magazines: "Eastern Miscellany" (東方雜誌), "Education Magazine" (教育雜誌), "The Short Story Magazine" (小說月報), "Youth Magazine" (少年雜誌), "Students' Magazine" (學生雜誌).</p>

3. Analyses: Parallel files [filename]-annotations.xml: info from other sources, or own analysis

(These parallel files are “born digital”. For [filename], put in name of original xml-file.)

Translations of Prefaces

Parallel file [filename]-annotations.xml/TEI/body/div

Example:

  1. <div type="preface-translation" xml:id="preface1-trans">
  2.   <p>…<p>
  3.   <byline>(Translated by <name ref="#KMW">Kaja Mueller-Wang</name>)</byline>
  4.   </div>

Analyses of Prefaces

Parallel file [filename]-annotations.xml/TEI/body/div

Example:

  1. <div type="preface-analysis" xml:id="ana-preface1">
  2.   <p>Analysis of preface by Kawase Nagasada 河瀨長定</p>
  3.   <p>Kawase Nagasada 河瀨長定 writes in the preface that China, although culturally superior,
  4.   has had corrupt officials who are unable to turn China from weak to strong, and to stand
  5.   against the Western powers that now put pressure on China. Kawase goes as far as calling
  6.   the “high officials asleep, the subordinate magistrates incapable” (dachen anmei, xialiao
  7.   beilou 大臣暗昧，下僚卑陋). Kawase thus criticizes the imperial governors, leaving little space
  8.   for any willingness by them to start reading Okamoto’s book. Being criticized this way in the
  9.   preface, it is doubtful if Zhang Zhidong and his subordinates would have looked into Okamoto’s book at all.</p>
  10.   <byline>(<name ref="#KMW">Analysis by Kaja Mueller-Wang</name>)</byline>
  11.   </div>
