Tremml-Werner, Birgit,
Spain, China, and Japan in Manila, 1571-1644 Local Comparisons and Global Connections - Amsterdam Amsterdam University Press 2015 - 1 online resource - Emerging Asia .
This book offers a new perspective on the connected histories of Spain, China, and Japan as they emerged and developed following Manila's foundation as the capital of the Spanish Philippines in 1571. Examining a wealth of multilingual primary sources, Birgit Tremml-Werner shows that crosscultural encounters not only shaped Manila's development as a "Eurasian" port city, but also had profound political, economic, and social ramifications for the three premodern states. Combining a systematic comparison with a focus on specific actors during this period, this book addresses many long-held misconceptions and offers a more balanced and multifaceted view of these nations' histories.
