His uncle Antonio Francesco Cardim (1596–1659), travelled for a few years as a missionary in China, Japan and other areas in the Far East. He was the Jesuit superior in Macau when the shogun of Japan forbade all voyages from Macau to Japan. “Cardim ... sent to Lisbon a report that was printed in 1643 of the execution at Nagasaki in 1640 of four Portuguese emissaries sent to Japan from Macau.Translations of this account quickly appeared in French, Italian and Dutch. ... In 1645 he published at Rome his Relatione of Japan in which he also deals at length with the missions in Macao, Tongking, Cochin-China, Hainan, Cambodia, and Siam, placed within the Jesuit Province of Japan where he had worked from 1623–1638” (Lach & Van Kley). The other uncle, Fernão Cardim (d. 1625), was an influential Jesuit in Brazil, one of the first who went to the mission posts there. He became director of a college in Rio de Janeiro and was made “provincial” of the local area. Lacking final endpaper and the bookblock partly detached from the binding. Some of the red paint from the sprinkled edges is found in the margins of the title-page and the engraved portrait and a few leaves are slightly browned. Otherwise still in very good condition.

Contemporary half morocco. € 125 First edition of the French translation of a work on New Guinea by the Italian explorer and naturalist Luigi Maria d’Albertis (1841–1901). D’Albertis was one of the first Europeans to explore New Guinea, visiting the island for the first time in 1871 to study birds, beetles and reptiles, and discovering some new species. On his other trips during the years 1871 to 1877, he mainly studied the then largely unknown Fly River. During his stay he took many native artefacts, which led to serious tensions with the natives. Many of these artefacts are shown in the wood engravings, along with portraits, views and illustrations of birds and other animals, and were eventually taken to Europe to be shown in museums. The work was first published in 1880 in Italian and in English, titled New Guinea: what I did and what I saw, in two volumes with several colour plates not included in the present French edition. With library stamp on half-title and title-page, and some spots on half title. Binding slightly rubbed along the extremities and with a partly cracked hinge. Good copy.

  • Russo-Japanese Relations: Opportunity for a Rapprochement?
    Russo-Japanese Relations: Opportunity for a Rapprochement? PEGGY FALKENHEIM MEYER ince the end of the cold war, only limited progress has been made in Russo- SJapanese relations. Ties between Russia and Japan have been strained by strong, historically rooted mistrust and by failure to resolve their territorial dis- pute over three islands and a small archipelago near Hokkaido. The disappoint- ingly low level of economic ties between the two countries has not provided a strong incentive for better relations. Recently, however, there have been signs of progress between Russia and Japan. In a speech in late July 1997, Japan’s prime minister, Ryutaro Hashimo- to, adopted a significantly new approach to Russia. The early November 1997 summit between Hashimoto and Russian President Boris Yeltsin at Krasnoyarsk confirmed their intention to bring about a radical improvement in Russo-Japan- ese relations. In this article, I explore the obstacles that impeded an improvement in Russo- Japanese relations after the end of the cold war. I then analyze the recent incen- tives for change and evaluate how far-reaching that change is likely to be. I argue that incremental improvement is taking place in Russo-Japanese relations and that there now is a possibility of greater change. However, there still are a number of serious obstacles to a full rapprochement. Mistrust Strong, historically rooted, mutual mistrust is one reason for the lack of progress in post–cold war Russo-Japanese relations, which have been embittered by a his- tory of conflict going back to tsarist times. Russians resent Japan’s encroachment on what they consider their rightful spheres of influence in Manchuria and Korea; Japan’s victory in the 1904–05 Russo-Japanese war; its seizure of territory as a fruit of victory; and its military intervention in Siberia after the Bolshevik revo- Peggy Falkenheim Meyer is an associate professor of political science at Simon Fraser Uni- versity in Burnaby, a suburb of Vancouver.

  • Japanese Economic Growth During the Edo Period*
    Japanese Economic Growth during the Edo Period* Toshiaki TAMAKI Abstract During the Edo period, Japanese production of silver declined drastically. Japan could not export silver in order to import cotton, sugar, raw silk and tea from China. Japan was forced to carry out import-substitution. Because Japan adopted seclusion policy and did not produce big ships, it used small ships for coastal trade, which contributed to the growth of national economy. Japanese economic growth during the Edo period was indeed Smithian, but it formed the base of economic development in Meiji period. Key words: Kaimin, maritime, silver economic growth, Sakoku 1.Introduction Owing to the strong influence of Marxism, and Japan’s defeat in World War II, Japanese historians dismissed the Edo period (1603–1867) as a stagnating period. Japan, during this period, was regarded as a country that lagged behind Europe because of its underdeveloped social and economic systems. It had been closed to the outside world for over two hundred years, as a result of its Sakoku (seclusion) policy, and could not, therefore, progress as rapidly as Europe and the United States. This image of Japan during the Edo period began to change in the 1980s, and this period is now viewed as an age of economic growth, even if Japan’s growth rates were not as rapid as those of Europe. Economic growth during the Edo period is now even considered to be the foundation for the economic growth that occurred after the Meiji period. In this paper, I will develop three arguments that demonstrate the veracity of the above viewpoint.

The arrival of America in Japan had initiated the ‘wind of change’ to new era towards Japan culture albeit its contribution to Japan proffers other values at all cost. The study aims to emphasize the importance of history in globalization era by learning Japan's process in accepting western culture. By learning historical occurrences, cultural conflicts can be avoided or minimized in global setting.

  • The Martensz Collection on Sri Lanka at the National Library of Australia
    ALRA Newsletter No. 74 (July 2019) A Diplomat’s Gift: the Martensz Collection on Sri Lanka at the National Library of Australia Introduction Today the Martensz Collection is little remembered, though it is described briefly in that invaluable source on the National Library of Australia’s holdings, the Burmester guide (1). Its donation in 1955 was also covered in some detail in the Canberra Times (2). Presentation of the Collection On 2 June 1955 the High Commissioner for Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), Mr J. Aubrey Martensz, CBE, presented his personal collection of books about his homeland to the National Library (2). The island nation then called Ceylon is now known as Sri Lanka. For convenience the current name Sri Lanka has been used in this article, except for proper names and in book titles. The gift was formally accepted by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr Archie Cameron, in his role as Chairman of the Library Committee. Those attending the ceremony in the Speaker’s Chambers of Parliament included the Prime Minister, Robert Menzies, the Minister for External Affairs, Richard Casey, and the National Librarian, Harold White. It is hard to imagine a book donation attracting a prime minister and other senior politicians nowadays. Life and career of J. Aubrey Martensz (2)(3) James Aubrey Martensz (1885-1963), was born into a Burgher family in Colombo, the island’s capital. The Burghers, a minority community of mixed Sri Lankan and Western heritage, generally have Portuguese, Dutch, British or other European surnames, the name Martensz being of Dutch origin.

  • Travels Into and out of the Record
    MAURICE BOND MEMORIAL LECTURE 2013 TRAVELS INTO AND OUT OF THE RECORD By Eric Ketelaar1 The paper discusses some features of journals and travel accounts. They are, as any record, a repository of meanings, some to be read in the record or inferred from the intertextuality that connects it to other documents. Other meanings have to be deducted from the context of the record’s creation and use. Therefore, historicizing the social and cultural practice of archiving and understanding the archival consciousness of society are important. Keywords: journals, maps, archiving, Tasman, Dutch East India Company, William of Orange Introduction Travels into and out of the record: please join me on my time travel to the 17th century, where we will meet travellers like William of Orange, the Amsterdam burgomaster Nicolaes Witsen, and the captains Willem de Vlamingh and Abel Tasman, who explored the coast of Australia.
