| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I identified in several Asian, European, and American archives news individuals who were in transit in Japanese ports and the seas of China and who were sold to the Portuguese, from the early 16th century until the definitive closure of Portuguese andJapanese trade relations in 1640. The documents analyzed are predominantly religious correspondence, inquisitorial processes, correspondence of merchants, wills, marriage records, death records, baptismal records, notarial records, censuses, journals, travel registers, merchandise registries, and legislation. In addition to handwritten documentation, I have also analyzed numerous printed documents produced at the time as well as more recent sources.
Some of the new results will be published in Palgrave Macmillan series "Palgrave Studies in Comparative Global History".
