Crow's Directories Data (1935)

<p>This set of two files contains the data extracted from Carl Crow&#39;s <em>Newspaper Directory of China</em> (1935&nbsp;edition). The first file contains the raw extraction from Freizo (Crow_1935_raw). The second is a clean version of the same dataset&nbsp;after correcting, cleaning,&nbsp;and standardizing the data initially extracted (Crow_zenodo_1935). Each line corresponds to a unique title. For each title, we provide the following information: name (full name, English, Wade-Giles, Chinese, pinyin transliteration), place of publication (city, province), year of establishment, circulation, publisher&#39;s name and profile, number&nbsp;and size of pages, number and size of columns.&nbsp;</p> <p>In the cleaned version, the first tab contains the data (list of the periodicals). Additional tabs describe the variables and the classification used for analytical&nbsp;purposes (period, format, etc).&nbsp;</p>
