Recent Pubs, 30 Jan 2023

This week’s New Pubs is a bit different than usual. It only includes two texts, but they are both doozies: first, we feature a unique scholarly object – the website Yangon Stories – that visualizes and describes the violence of dispossession in Yangon over the years; second, we bring your attention to a special issue of Mānoa edited by several Burma studies scholars and artists (Penny Edwards, ko ko thett, Kenneth Wong), featuring the work of several Burmese poets and singers, including Aung Khin Myint, Thida Shania, Kyaw Zwa Moe, and Saw Phoe Kwar, and including Greg Constantine’s photography of the Rohingya genocide.

As ever, see our Recent Publications page for all of the citations and for past weeks.
