| 研究実績の概要 |
The results of my study were published in a new book. The main purpose of this book was to present the Japanese slave trade and the Japanese Diaspora and to understand in particular the Japanese presence in Europe and America in the Early Modern Period between 1550 and 1639. At the same time I also presented several biographies of Japanese individuals living in Europe, China, India and America.
I'm know publishing a new article, where I study the presence of Iberian Judeo-Conversos in China and Japan, making visible the Jewish Diaspora and their economics dynamics regarding slave trade. In this study I pay particular attention to the Judeo-converso communities concentrated in Macau and Nagasaki, and I explain how they organized their commercial networks using as agents, not just family members of Jewish origin; but also commercial agents without Jewish ancestry. I also prove that the communities herein mentioned also cannot be characterized as harmonious and cohesive, and that the idea of the Diaspora as an endogamous community, featuring commercial cooperation based on an idea of Jewishness, is not verifiable in Macau as well as in Nagasaki.

| 次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
I will have my works translated into English and Korean to be published in International Journals and I will use the other part of the funds for my research in Europe and in Asia. I intend to collect more historical materials regarding my object of study and also purchase several books.
|
| 次年度使用額の使用計画 |
I intend to study documentation deposited in the Historical Archives of Granada, the Inquisitorial records of Coimbra and Evora deposited in Lisbon, and Jewish documentation at the Etz Hayim library in Amsterdam. For this year, my aim is to research references to Jewish slave traffickers who lived in East Asian ports contained in papers belonging to these merchants and their agents, or in records about such owners or their property. Although a part of these papers may still be in the possession of the families of such traffickers, many of them are deposited in local archives or libraries.
Through such material, which is yet unpublished, I will try to identify and reconstruct the lives of some of the Jewish merchants and slave owners engaged in the East Asian Commerce.
