5 We shall always play PUNCH, for we consider it best to be merry and wise And laugh at all things, for we wish to know, What, after all, are all things but a show! Byron. The Moral of Punch, inaugural editorial, Punch, 17 July 1841.

7 Preface This book is the outcome of a conference on the transcultural aspects of Punch magazine, held in November 2009 at Heidelberg University. The event was convened by a research group called Gauging Cultural Asymmetries: Asian Satire and the Search for Identity in the Era of Colonialism and Imperialism, working under the auspices of the Heidelberg Cluster of Excellence Asia and Europe in a Global Context: Shifting Asymmetries in Cultural Flows. Asian Punches attempts to bring together for the first time research on late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century versions of the Punch, and similar satirical journals from various parts of Asia (including Cairo, which is, of course, North Africa, and Istanbul on the border between Asia and Europe). Many satirical periodicals of the time were directly inspired by the British Punch magazine and often even adopted the name Punch. It is hoped that this overview of Ottoman, Egyptian, South Asian, Chinese and Japanese Punch versions and other Punch-inspired satirical periodicals will add a new dimension to research on Punch, and Victorian satirical journalism generally. We also hope to show the necessity of adopting a transcultural perspective when dealing with such phenomena, as well as making some headway towards providing clues for what such a perspective might entail. Assembling materials from a number of different Asian languages, this book uses their respective conventions for the transcription of terms, quoted passages or bibliographic references. The transliteration of Ottoman Turkish is based primarily on that found in the Redhouse dictionaries: James W. Redhouse, A Turkish and English Lexicon, and Redhouse Yeni T urkçe-ingilizce S ozl uk. 1 For Arabic, transliteration is restricted to the indication of long vowels, hamza and ʿayn. For the South Asian languages, conventional diacritics are used, with some additions suggested 1 James W. Redhouse, Redhouse Yeni T urkçe-iṅgilizce S ozl uk (Istanbul: Redhouse Press, 1986); James W. Redhouse, A Turkish and English Lexicon (Istanbul: Çağr{ Yay{nlar{, 2001). vii

8 viii Preface by Rahul Peter Das. 2 Chinese is rendered into Latin script in accordance with the Hanyu Pinyin system and Japanese is transcribed into Rōmaji. We are grateful, first of all, to the Cluster and its sponsor, the German Research Foundation, for funding this project. We would like to thank all contributors for sharing our enthusiasm for this endeavour by writing and rewriting chapters for this book. Some of them agreed at very short notice to compose additional chapters: Ritu Khanduri, who rewrote an article on Indian versions of Punch for us, and Marilyn Booth, who contributed an additional article on The Cairo Punch. Last but not least, we would also like to thank those without whose help it would hardly have been possible to put this book together: Verena V ockel, who did an excellent job organising the conference; Jessica Fischer for very prompt copyediting; Emily Mae Graf and Anne Moßner for producing the typescript, the latter especially for coordinating unified transliterations and assembling the images; Judit Árokay for her support with the Japanese titles; Eliane Ettmueller for the transliteration of the Arabic citation in Marilyn Booth s first chapter; Nasir Abbas Nayyar for his help with the transliteration of several Urdu titles, Richard Littler for graphics restoration of the illustrations; and Andrea Hacker for supervising the publication on behalf of the Cluster of Excellence and Springer-Verlag. Hans Harder Barbara Mittler 2 See Rahul Peter Das, Review of Dušan Zbavitel, Bengali Literature (Wiesbaden: Harrassowitz, 1976), Indo-Iranian Journal 27 (1984): 51 69; 66, n. 2. In the following chapters, there are, however, a few deviations from this system. For example, the vocalic -r- is written as r, the retroflex -r- as ṛ, and -b- as the last part of a Bengali conjunction is written as -v- wherever Sanskrit-derived words are concerned.
