SUBTITLE: Giving an Account of the Ancient and Present State of government of that Empire of its Temples Palaces.of the chronology & Succession of the Emperors.Together with a Description of the Kingdom of Siam.Kaempfer 1651-1716 was a German doctor with a passion for traveling. He went to Nagasaki in 1690-91. His work covers Japanese history & a very reliable & lucid description of the political social & physical state of the country in the 17th century. For upwards of 100 years this work remained the chief source of reliable and primary information for the rest of the world. Kaempfer was essentially stationed in Nagasaki harbor on the prison-like island of Dejima the entrance of which was controlled by the Japanese. There he performed his medical duties as Dutch East India Company physician. Once a year a representative of the Company was allowed to go to Edo under very strict military guard to be observed by the Shogun. The entourage went by way of Nagasaki to Kokura Osaka Miaco Kyoto Fammamatz Hamamatsu to Edo basically up the Tokaido highway. Kaempfer was sent to the Shogun's palace in Edo he was ordered to dance sing & eat while being scrutinized by the Shogun who shielded himself behind a Sudare or bamboo curtain. The Shogun secretly watched the Oranda-jin a Dutchman. Kaempfer was a very open & free-thinking educated man who was also an intellectual. The Shogun took to him & granted the favor of free travel throughout Japan unheard of during this period of Japan's & fear of Westerners and isolation to the rest of the world. The Dutch were allowed just so many vessels to visit annually & trade with their "window to the world" at Dejima. Nagasaki became a gathering place for curious Japanese as well as would-be Ran-gaku-sha Japanese Scholars of Dutch Learning who studied science medicine astronomy geography cartography and the Western art of copper plate printing. From this very tiny island "window" Japan's curious intellectuals made a school & began to teach Western style knowledge to an elite Japanese intelligentsia. WHO WAS DR. ENGELBERT KAEMPFER: Kaempfer was one of the scant few who gave favor to the rise of such Japanese and taught them what he could. This most famous primary resource has been celebrated since its publication as THE single most important book on Japan in the 18th century. Over the past two centuries & a half this work has maintained its position as one of the three most important books on Japan done in English in the West. Highly collectable and coveted by connoisseurs historians & librarians renders this a magnificent primary resource with fabulous etchings. The addition of the appendices in 1728 on the Tea Camellia is the first appearance of this in English. Also the first discussion of acupuncture & the use of Moxa Mogusa as a medical remedy. The West is still learning about effectiveness of these two medical treatments to this day. Kaempfer's influence on the Japanese is difficult to assess except that some of Japan's most intellectual scientists physicians reformers and scholars got their Rangaku from Deshima after Kaempfer arrived. Shiba Kokan the "Da Vinci of Japan" Matsukawa Hanzan and a host of others led Japan through the halls of innovation for the next two hundred and fifty years. Even today medicine is still considered as "Rangaku" in Japan. The roots of Japan becoming a modern well educated nation emanates from its first introduction of European learning via Deshima. This book documents the beginning of that era. In just two years' stay in Japan Dr. Kaempfer began Japan's long voyage of equality with the West. RARE in either edition. Kaempfer 1740-1812 was the director of the Deshima factory in 1779-1780 and 1781-1784 in Nagasaki. BIBLIOGRAPHY: . E. Cox: A REFERENCE GULIDE TO THE LITERATURE OF TRAVEL p.332 M.
