| Outline of Research at the Start |
本研究は、イエズス会宣教師が書いた書簡や報告書などの史料の分析を通じて、彼らが見た日本の建築及び都市空間を明らかにする。若い時に来日し、30年以上滞在し、日本語が流暢に話せることが出来る宣教師も存在した。彼らは日本の文化や習慣などを深く理解し、記録を残した。書簡や宣教活動の報告書からその時代の建築の特徴や都市空間、一般市民の暮らしを読み解くことが出来る。日本史のような有名な史料は翻訳があるが、他の報告書や書簡は、語訳はない。本研究は電子化されたイエズス会史料を収集し、史料に書かれている建築や都市空間に関する記述を抽出し、他の史料や南蛮屏風のような同年代の映像史料と比較し、分析と考察を行う。

| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Jorge Alvarez (??-1552) was a Portuguese merchant and ship owner who met Francisco Xavier (1506- 1552) in Malaca in the Autumn of 1545 while Xavier prepared for his trip to Japan. Xavier asks him to gather information about the people and the land of Japan, which he later uses to convince his superiors to evangelize Japan. Alvarez departed for Japan in January 1546 and returned to Malaca in December 1546. Still, he only met Xavier after returning from Sanshoan in December 1547, when he gave Xavier his written report on Japan. His report was the first description of Japan written by a European, and he provides a detailed description of Japanese architecture and the urban environment of the port towns he visited on the coast of Kyushu island. How he describes Japanese architecture is more objective than the later descriptions made by the Jesuits priest. However, Alvarez didn't have access to major cities and was allowed to go up to 10km from the port. Therefore, part of the description of the buildings was based on what he had heard about and not only what he had seen.
Xavier later based his letter on Alvarez's report to ask permission to evangelize Japan. Still, he focused on the Japanese people and did not include descriptions of the architecture and urban landscape. Xavier's letter became famous and was printed and translated into several languages. However, only 20 years after Alvarez's reports, text that contains descriptions of Japanese Architecture was written by Luiz Frois and later by Joao Rodrigues, who described the tea culture and architecture.
