In The Chinese Annals of Batavia, the Kai Ba Lidai Shiji and Other
Stories (1610-1795) Leonard Blusse and Nie Dening open up a
veritable treasure trove of Chinese archival sources about the
autonomous history of Chinese Batavia. The main part of this study
is devoted to the annotated translation of a unique historical
study of the Chinese community of Batavia (Jakarta) written by an
anonymous Chinese author at the end of the 18th century, the Kai Ba
Lidai Shiji. This historical document and a selection of other
Chinese contemporary sources throw new light on a tragic event in
the history of Southeast Asia's overseas Chinese: the massacre of
Batavia's Chinese community in 1740.
