| 研究実績の概要 |
The main purpose of my research is to study the Sephardic converted Jews (Conversos) involved in Asian slave trade between 1550 and 1639 and to understand in particular the Jewish presence in East Asia in the Early Modern Period. At the same time, I intend to study the cultural exchanges involving these communities in Macau, Manila, Nagasaki, Acapulco and Mexico City who have yet to be studied.
