Abstract
This bibliography records Australian literary responses to Asia in poetry, short-stories, novels and plays, from the beginnings of the colony to 1995, and forms the basis for an on-going bibliographic study. Oral and visual narratives depicting indigenous pre-1788 perceptions of Asia are beyond the province of this investigation, however the work of contemporary Aboriginal writers is included. Entries are restricted to writings in English. Translations from languages other than English and writing in other generic modes (like diaries, biography, life-writing, travel narratives, ethnographies and criticism) represent further research potential.
