Indische jeugdliteratuur : Geannoteerde bibliografie van jeugdboeken over Nederlands-Indië en Indonesië, 1825-1991 /
:
In deze geannoteerde bibliografie van jeugdboeken, waarin Nederlands-Indië en Indonesië een rol spelen, worden 1244 titels gerangschikt. Deze oorspronkelijk Nederlandstalige titels verschenen tussen 1825 en 1991. Van elke titel is een volledige bibliografische beschrijving op genomen, aangevuld met gegevens over eventuele herdrukken en vindplaatsen. Van elke uitgave wordt tevens een samenvatting gegeven, waarin ook informatie is opgenomen over plaats, streek of land waar het verhaal is gestitueerd en onder welke bevolkingsgroep (Indonesisch, Indo-Europees, Nederlands) en sociale klasse het zich afspeelt. Registers op auteurs, illustratoren, uitgevers, titels en onderwerpen ontsluiten de bibliografie en de annotaties. Een inleiding verantwoordt de werkwijze en signaleert een aantal grote lijnen in de Indische jeugdliteratuur. Deze unieke bibliografie is het resultaat van vele jaren speur-en verzamelwerk van Dorotheé Buur (1938) die als documentaliste/archiviste is verbonden aan de afdeling Documentatie Geschiedenis Indonesië van het KITLV. Haar bibliografie maakt een onbekend en onderschat genre lectuur en literatuur toegankelijk, waarin geschiedenis en actualiteit, alsook opvattingen, mentaliteit en vooroordeel alle hun weerslag vinden. Deze bibliografie is in zijn indrukwekkende omvang en diepgang een onontbeerlijk hulpmiddel bij de studie van de Indische jeugdliteratuur met al de daarin vervatte feiten en meningen, voor geïnteresseerden uit historisch, sociologisch en literair oogpunt.

Dutch Filipiniana /
:
Until recently the Philippines were hardly known in the Netherlands. In academic circles the focus was on Indonesia, and publications on the Philippine part of the Malay archipelago tended to be inspired by matters of economy and state in the former Netherlands East Indies. The 1970s and 1980s showed a substantial broadening of scope and increase in research as well as popular interest in the Philippines, as is evidenced by the large majority of the 349 titles mentioned and annotated in this publication. Many early publications contain interesting information and views as well, however. Pre-war authors who are mainly known for their work on Indonesia, such as Valentijn, Van Hoëvell, Kern, Abendanon, E.F.E. Douwes Dekker, Van Vollenhoven, Van Mook, and Holleman, at one or more stages of their careers also devoted attention to the Philippines. The primary aim of this bibliography is to offer the international and Filipino scholarly public access to articles and books written by Dutch authors on the history, sociology, anthropology and to a lesser extent the geography, languages, economy, and culture of the Philippines. About two hundred of them appeared in the Dutch language. The bibliography proper is preceded by an introduction on the history of relation between the Philippines and the Netherlands and the Netherlands Indies and on shifts in the subjects of Dutch scholarly research as well as popular interest. Access to the titles is facilitated by a geographical and a subject index.

The mission of the Portuguese Augustinians to Persia and beyond (1602-1747) /
:
In The Mission of the Portuguese Augustinians to Persia and Beyond (1602-1747), John M. Flannery describes the establishment and activities of the Portuguese Augustinian mission in Persia. Hopes of converting the Safavid ruler of the Shi'a Muslim state would come to naught, as would the attempts of Shah 'Abbas I to use the services of the missionaries, as representatives of the Spanish Habsburgs, to forge an anti-Ottoman alliance with the papacy and the Christian rulers of Europe. Prevented from converting Muslims, the Augustinians turned their attention to Armenian and Syriac Christians in Isfahan, later also establishing new missions among Christians in Georgia and the Mandaeans of the Basra region, all of which are described herein. The history of the Augustinian Order is generally under-represented by contrast with other Orders, and this study breaks new ground in existing scholarship.

The Hadhrami diaspora in Southeast Asia : identity maintenance or assimilation? /
:
This volume originates from the proceedings of an international conference convened by the Department of History and Civilization, International Islamic University Malaysia, in collaboration with the Embassy of the Republic of Yemen, in Kuala Lumpur, from 26 to 28 August 2005. Twelve out of thirty-five papers presented at the conference have been reviewed, thoroughly revised and published in this volume. The introduction and the twelve chapters address the question of Hadhrami identity in Southeast Asia from various perspectives and investigate the patterns of Hadhrami interaction with diverse cultures, values and beliefs in the region. Special attention is paid to Hadhrami local and transnational politics, social stratification and integration, religio-social reform and journalism, as well as to economic dynamism and the cosmopolitan character of the Hadhrami societies in Southeast Asia.

Transpacific Peru, 1570-1613 : Connections with Mexico, the Philippines, and China /
:
Classic studies have highlighted the significance of colonial Peru from a transatlantic and European perspective. Transpacific Peru, 1570-1613 expands this view by exploring its pivotal role in transpacific trade. It examines the agency and networks of peruleros -silver-rich merchants-connecting China, the Philippines, and Mexico. The book exposes the tensions between their expeditions and the prohibitive laws of the Spanish Crown, revealing colonial Peru as a dynamic hub for the expansion of the Spanish Empire and the early globalization of the 16th century.

Christian Mission in Seventeenth-Century Taiwan : A Reception History of Texts, Beliefs, and Practices /
:
This is the first book-length study of the reception of Christianity and the epistemic outcomes of contact between Protestant and Catholic missionaries and Indigenous Austronesians in the contact zone of seventeenth-century colonial Taiwan. In the Age of European Expansion, Dutch Reformed and Spanish Catholic missionaries attempted to win the souls of Indigenous Austronesian people in Taiwan. Christopher Joby answers the question of how the missionaries tried to overcome the gap between their own cultures and languages and those of the Indigenous Austronesians or Formosans to communicate their versions of the Christian Gospel in the contact zone of seventeenth-century Taiwan, and he analyses the consequences of these encounters. As such, this book is a reception history of the texts, beliefs, and practices that Reformed Protestant and Catholic missionaries introduced to convert the Formosans to their mode of Christianity. Using many linguistic and non-linguistic examples, this approach allows for a 'complementary colour perspective' by comparing the epistemic outcomes of the Dutch Reformed and Catholic missions.

Persian pottery in the first global age : the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries /
:
Persian Pottery in the First Global Age: the Sixteenth and Seventeeth Centuries studies the ceramic industry of Iran in the Safavid period (1501-1732) and the impact which the influx of Chinese blue-and-white porcelain, heightened by the activities of the English and Dutch East Indies Companies after c. 1700, had on local production. The multidisciplinary approach of the authors (Lisa Golombek, Robert B. Mason, Patricia Proctor, Eileen Reilly) leads to a reconstruction of the narrative about Safavid pottery and revises commonly accepted notions. The book includes easily accessible reference charts to assist in dating and provenancing Safavid pottery on the basis of diagnostic motifs, potters' marks, petrofabrics, shapes, and Chinese models.

Ottoman-Southeast Asian Relations : sources from the Ottoman Archives /
:
Ottoman-Southeast Asian Relations: Sources from the Ottoman Archives, is a product of meticulous study of İsmail Hakkı Kadı, A.C.S. Peacock and other contributors on historical documents from the Ottoman archives. The work contains documents in Ottoman-Turkish, Malay, Arabic, French, English, Tausung, Burmese and Thai languages, each introduced by an expert in the language and history of the related country. The work contains documents hitherto unknown to historians as well as others that have been unearthed before but remained confined to the use of limited scholars who had access to the Ottoman archives. The resources published in this study show that the Ottoman Empire was an active actor within the context of Southeast Asian experience with Western colonialism. The fact that the extensive literature on this experience made limited use of Ottoman source materials indicates the crucial importance of this publication for future innovative research in the field. Contributors are: Giancarlo Casale, Annabel Teh Gallop, Rıfat Günalan, Patricia Herbert, Jana Igunma, Midori Kawashima, Abraham Sakili and Michael Talbot
