Édition : 2nd ed.
Publication : Seattle : University of Washington Press, [2014]
Description matérielle : 1 vol. (XIV-368 p.) : illustrations ; 26 cm
Note(s) : Cover title also in Chinese : Ai lun shi ji. - Island was self-published in 1980 with partial funding from the Zellerbach Family
Fund and the Wallace Alexander Gerbode Foundation, as well as the assistance of the
San Francisco Study Center and Chinese Culture Foundation of San Francisco under the
publisher's name--HOC DOI, which stands for "History of Chinese Detained on Island."
It went into a second printing in 1983 and was republished by the University of Washington
Press in 1991. - In this revised edition sixty-nine poems in the main text have been combined with
the sixty-six poems in the appendix into one section. Chinese poems that had been
found on the walls of the immigration stations at Ellis Island in New York and at
Victoria Island in Canada are also included. Charles Egan, David Chuenyan Lai, Marlon
K. Hom, and Ellen Yeung helped with the new translations and corrected any errors
in the poems based on "Poetry and Inscriptions," the research team's report. The historical
introduction is rewritten to include the new research that has been done since Island
was first published, excerpts of oral histories are replaced with twenty full profiles
and stories drawn from our oral history collection and the immigration files at NARA-SF
(National Archives at San Francisco). Unlike the first edition of Island, this revised
edition uses the real names of our interviewees and includes photographs of them.
Volunteers pored over twenty-seven rolls of microfilm that had been scanned by Ancestry.com
in an effort to determine the actual detention time, exclusions, and appeals for Chinese
applicants at Angel Island (see tables 1 and 2 in the appendix). The bibliography
is updated, a map showing the emigrant districts in Guangdong has been added, as well
as a glossary of Chinese names and terms mentioned in the book. - Includes bibliographical references (pages 349-360) and index
Bilingual text in English and Chinese.
