All in all, this is a commendable work and a great resource for students of medieval Japanese history and Portuguese “expansion.”” – Geoffrey C. Gunn, Nagasaki University, in: Monumenta Nipponica 74\/2 (2019)    \"With no significant primary sources specifically on the Portuguese slave trade, the author has clearly made a prodigious effort to comb through documents at archives in Macau, India, Portugal, Italy, and Spain for references to Asian slaves and to compile an important account of a significant part of Portugal’s trade with Japan. The result is a comprehensive study in English on a topic that has received little attention but will be of interest to a wide range of scholars.\" – Jan Leuchtenberger, University of Puget Sound, in: The Journal of Japanese Studies 47\/1 (2021)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents    Acknowledgments  List of Figures and Tables  List of Abbreviations    Introduction    Terminology    The Book’s Structure  1 The Chinese Stage    The Chinese Stage    Macao, Kurofune, and the Slave Trade in Japan: The Earliest Evidence    Examples from the Chinese Diaspora  2 The Japanese Stage    The Japanese Stage    The Iberian Union: The Opening of Private Trade between Macao and Manila and Financial Restructuring in Macao    Toyotomi Hideyoshi and the Liberation of Macao Ship Slaves  3 The Korean Stage    The Macao Ship and Korean Slaves    European Missionaries and Traders and the Invasion of Korea by Hideyoshi  4 Reorganization of the Portuguese Slave Trade    The End of Korean and Japanese Slavery in the “Nau De Macau” and Its Replacement with Chinese Slavery in the Philippines (1600–14)    The Last Chapter of the Portuguese Presence in Japan  5 The Structure of Portuguese Slavery in Japan    Capture    Other Origins of Japanese Slaves Purchased by the Portuguese    Sale    Transportation    The Society of Jesus and the Ballot System    Price and Number of Slaves  6 Case Studies: Crossing Diasporas    The Chinese Slave Victoria Diaz and the Jewish Conversos    The Japanese slave Gaspar Fernandes and the Jewish Conversos    The 1640 Delegation and the “Korean” Miguel Carvalho    From Slave of the Society of Jesus to Franciscan Priest: The Case of Jerónimo Iyo (伊予)\/Geronimo de la Cruz  7 The Iberian World and the Japanese Diaspora    Macao    The Philippines    Goa    Japanese Mercenaries Serving the Habsburgs in Asia    Mexico    Peru    Argentina    Portugal    Spain  8 Japanese Slavery and Iberian Legislation    From the Reconquista to    Japanese Slavery and Iberian Legislation: 1550–80    Japanese Slavery and Iberian Legislation: 1580–1600  Conclusion    Bibliography    Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210749960535,"sku":"9789004365803","price":189.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-portuguese-slave-trade-in-early-modern-japan-merchants-jesuits-and-japanese-chinese-and-korean-slaves-9789004365803","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
