The chapters in the volume catalog and analyze representative plays which were produced in the hundreds all over Europe, from the Iberian Peninsula to present-day Croatia and Poland.      Taking full account of existing scholarship, but also introducing a large amount of previously unknown primary material, the contributions by European and Japanese researchers significantly expand the horizon of investigation on early modern European theatrical reception of East Asian elements and will be of particular interest to students of global history, Neo-Latin, and theater studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Figures    Part 1: Preliminaries  Introduction   Maria Maciejewska, Haruka Oba, Florian Schaffenrath and Akihiko Watanabe    1 Found in Translation: The Jesuit Japan Letters as a Source of Early Modern European Images of Japan   Patrick Reinhart Schwemmer    2 Christianomachia Iaponensis: The Japanese Martyr on Stage   Mirjam Döpfert    Part 2: Geographical Overviews  3 Japanese Martyrs in French Jesuit Drama (Late Seventeenth–Early Eighteenth Century): Between Violence and Bienséance   Hitomi Omata Rappo    4 Titus Iapon on the Jesuit Stage in the Provincia Flandro-Belgica: Neo-Latin Intertextuality and the Economics of Jesuit Drama   Nicholas De Sutter and Goran Proot    5 Japan and the Japanese in Jesuit School Plays from the Bohemian Province of the Society of Jesus   Kateřina Bobková-Valentová and Magdaléna Jacková    6 Traces of Japan in Croatian Latin School Drama, 1600–1800   Nina Čengić and Neven Jovanović    7 Not Only Titus the Japanese: Japan and the Japanese on the Jesuit Stage in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries   Monika Miazek-Męczyńska    8 Early Christian Japanese Sources of Jesuit Theater in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth   Justyna Łukaszewska-Haberkowa    Part 3: Case Studies  9 Majesty and Silence: An Honorable, Bald Old Man Named Japan   Margarida Miranda    10 The Development of Jesuit Drama on Japan in Bavaria: The Historical Context of the Play Victor, Staged in Munich in 1665   Haruka Oba    11 The Japanese Senex Iratus: The Munich Victor Play   Akihiko Watanabe","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210805535063,"sku":"9789004436183","price":111.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/japan-on-the-jesuit-stage-transmissions-receptions-and-regional-contexts-9789004436183","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
