The Chinese Australian Herald and the Shaping of a Modern ‘Imagined’ Chinese Community in 1890s Colonial Sydney
(Centre for the Study of the Chinese Southern Diaspora, The Australian National University, 2008) Kuo, Mei-Fen
This article discusses the development of the first Sydney Chinese newspaper, the
Chinese Australian Herald, showing how it rapidly cultivated an effective place for itself as a
technically sophisticated moral, social and organizational nexus linking Chinese daily life with
larger-scale systems like the political structure of colonial society. It also argues that two
major Chinese ceremonial processions conducted in 1897 illustrate the paper©s power to help
shape new leadership and a new social imaginary, and thus to help reconfigure the Chinese©
Australian community to partake in the broader Australian colonial community of the time.
The narratives and social networks of the Chinese Australian Herald provide insights into the
complex process of constructing a modern ©imagined© Chinese community in turn of the
twentieth-century Sydney.
