Description

Explore a significant era of Japanese history with Japan: The Dutch Experience from the Bloomsbury Academic Collections. This scholarly work by Professor Goodman provides a detailed look at the Dutch influence on Japan during the closed centuries between 1640 and 1853. This edition serves as a revised and updated version of the original 1967 text, The Dutch Impact on Japan. It incorporates new information to address the renewed interest in how European ideas shaped the nation. The book examines the specific circumstances of the Dutch presence in the seventeenth century and the intellectual environment that allowed Dutch studies to grow. Readers will follow the history of how the Shogun government first engaged with European astronomy and medicine. The text tracks the development of these connections and the lasting impact of this unique period of contact. It is an essential resource for students and historians interested in business, economic history, and the intellectual evolution of Japan during its period of isolation.
