Singapore&#8217;s history has frequently been summarised as being a booming trading port due to its strategic geographical position in the 14th century and becoming a British colony in 1819. Yet in the gap between these time periods lies a lull in trade, a puzzling phenomenon many historians continue to try to explain.<\/p>\n<p>While some authors have turned to ancient and early modern texts for references to Singapore, others have tried to string narratives bridging pre- and post-1800 perceptions of Singapore. Adjunct Associate Professor Kwa Chong Guan and Associate Professor Peter Borschberg (NUS Department of History) have compiled a volume of studies that brings together various 20th century attempts by academics to reconstruct Singapore&#8217;s &#8220;missing years&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><i>Studying Singapore Before 1800<\/i> (NUS Press, 2018) seeks to answer the question of what happened to Singapore before British colonial rule. The volume is an ambitious effort at building a richer understanding of pre-1800 Singapore. It offers insights into the relevance of classics such as the <i>Sejarah Melayu<\/i> in imagining Singapore&#8217;s past, as well as presenting many hard to find articles, two of which have been translated from Dutch to English for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Find out more about <em>Studying SIngapore Before 1800 <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/nuspress.nus.edu.sg\/products\/studying-singapore-before-1800\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 29 January 1819, Sir Stamford Raffles landed in Singapore, marking an important moment in the island&#8217;s gradual development into a nation.
