I am an historian interested in Sino-British relations in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. I have broad research interests that include epistemologies, race relations, representation, comics studies, and visual and material cultures with particular focus on China in the British imagination. I hold a PhD in History from the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London and am a founding member of Asia Collections Network (ACN), a global platform for those with specialist knowledge of and involvement in collections of the arts and artefacts of Asia. I am Assistant Professor of History at the University of Birmingham.
I offer editing services specialising in academic dissertations, theses, and journal articles as well as creative non-fiction and corporate research and proposals. For services and fees, visit bespoke editor.com or email amy@amymatthewson.com.
