Zhibao
直報
The Tianjin daily Zhibao was founded in January 1895 in Tianjin by the
German businessman and military advisor to Li Hongzhang Constantin von Hanneken
(1854-1925). Together with the Shibao 時報, published by the influential Tianjin
Commissioner of Customs Gustav Detring (1842-1913) from 1886 to 1891, which is
also in our institute, the Zhibao was one of Tianjin's earliest Chinese language
newspapers. During the year 1895, the Zhibao under its Chinese editor Yang
Yinting 杨荫庭 rallied for the war faction in the Chinese-Japanese war and served
as an early forum for the post war reform movement in Northern China. Yan Fu
published some of his articles in the paper before he founded his own Guowenbao
國聞報 in 1897. The Zhibao closed down in 1904, when Yuan Shikai banned all sales
outside the foreign concessions.
Our institute holds a paper reprint of
this newspaper for the years 1895 to 1896 (24 Jan. 1895 - 5 Sept. 1896;
N=19.9.1895 - 17.10.1895, 14.3.1896 - 12.4.1896) and 1898 (21.4. - 13.10.1898,
incomplete), as well as several numbers from the years 1899, 1901, and
1904.
Thanks to Elisabeth Kaske for the above
introduction!
