It represents a complete collection, provided by the Yokohama Archives of History and other institutions. Playing an important role for the Meiji Japan’s exchange with the western society, the journal contains articles on politics, commerce, and economics, and also on the cultural activities of early Japanologists and the Asiatic Society of Japan. Contributors include George Aston, Ernest Satow, Basil Hall Chamberlain, F. V. Dickins, Henry Dyer, William Anderson, and many others. It is an indispensable primary source for any scholar of Modern Japan.
