Illustrating Asia : comics, humor magazines, and picture books
John A. Lent (Editor), University of Hawaii (System). Press (Publisher)
All of the articles consider cartoon and/or comic art in the historical and social setting of seven South, Southeast, and East Asian countries: India, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, China, and Japan. The contributors treat comic and narrative art--including comic books, comic strips, picture books, and humor and fan magazines--in both historical and socio-cultural perspectives, as well as portrayals of ancient Chinese philosophy, gender, and the enemy in cartoons and comics. -- Publisher's website
