H-ASIA December 12, 2010 A bibliographic note on the late Sidney DeVere Brown (1925-2010) ********************************************************************** Ed. note: My friend and colleague on the Bibliography of Asian Studies has prepared this tribute to Professor Brown and his career. I am most grateful to him for this gracious--and enlightening--gesture. FFC ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Frank Joseph Shulman [fshulman@umd.edu] Selected Writings of Sidney DeVere Brown (January 29, 1925 - December 8, 2010) The following bibliography has been prepared as a tribute to some of the scholarly accomplishments of the late Sidney DeVere Brown (Professor Emeritus of Japanese History at the University of Oklahoma) and as a personal expression of my appreciation of his friendship over the past forty years. The bibliography is selective rather than comprehensive. In order for it to be made available in a very timely manner, its coverage has been limited primarily to information found in selected secondary sources.
