The ''Harvard Journal of Asiatic Studies'' (HJAS) is an English-language scholarly journal published by the Harvard-Yenching Institute. ''HJAS'' features articles and book reviews of current scholarship in East Asian Studies, focusing on Chinese, Japanese, and Korean history, literature and religion, with occasional coverage of politics and linguistics. ==History== Serge Elisséeff founded the ''Harvard Journal of Asiatic Studies'' in 1936 under the auspices of the Harvard-Yenching Institute, an independent, non-profit organization founded in 1928 to further the spread of knowledge and scholarship on East and Southeast Asia. Elisséeff's wide range of knowledge came to be reflected in the diverse character of the journal during the twenty-one years he served as its editor (1936-1957).〔In 1912, Serge Elisséeff received a degree from Tokyo Imperial University, making him the first Westerner to do so. Fluent in eight languages, including Chinese and Japanese, Elisséeff was renowned as one of the foremost Japanologists of his time, both in the West and in Japan. He had close personal ties to many of the greatest literary names of the first half of the century and wrote occasional articles for the ''Asahi Shimbun''.〕 Since the days of Elisséeff, the journal has been guided by: * John Bishop (editor), 1958-1974 * Timothy Connor, 1975 * Donald Shively, 1976-1983〔Maclay, Kathleen.
