[KineJapan] a book on Chinese-Japanese animation in the 1940s and 1950s

[Daisy Yan Du]

Dear colleagues,

My first monograph, Animated Encounters: Transnational Movements of
Chinese Animation, 1940s-1970s, was recently published by the
University of Hawaii Press. Thank you all for providing generous
community support over the decade!

Chapter 1 discusses the Japanese connection of Princess Iron Fan
(1941), the first animated feature film of China and Asia.

Chapter 2 examines the role of Mochinaga Tadahito, a wartime Japanese
animator, in animated filmmaking in postwar and early socialist China
(1945-1953).

Chapter Epilogue touches upon the influence of Japanese animation
(especially Astro Boy, 1963) on Chinese animated filmmaking in the
1980s.
