15854676<p>ENTRY NO. 1 IN BOSCARO<br />THE FIRST REFERENCE TO THE JAPANESE EMBASSY OF 1585 PRINTED ON THE TITLE-PAGE</p><p>Venice I Gioliti 1585.</p><p>Small 8vo 15.3 x 10 cm 103 pp. Bound in old vellum. Discrete former ownership stamp on title. Gutter margin of title reinforced; inconsequential toning otherwise excellent.</p><p>Rare early edition of this Jesuit letter containing news of missions and activity in Japan from the year 1582 the only edition of 5 printed that year to contain a title-page advertising the famous Japanese embassy of 1584-86. Significantly the work also discusses the embassy the participants and their noble lineage and expresses the hope that the embassy will prove a convincing sign of the Jesuit's spectacular success in Japan p. 7. The present imprint of this edition comprises the first entry in Boscaro's bibliography of printed works related to the embassy. It thus stands at the head of nearly 50 works printed in 1585 alone to record and commemmorate an event that-in addition to providing a public relations coup for the Jesuits-became a watershed moment in cross-cultural exchange between the Orient and the West: "no Japanese emissaries to Europe either before or since aroused comparable interest or enthusiasm" Lach.</p><p>In the annals of international relations between Europe and Japan in the 16th C it is particularly noteworthy "how the physical presence of the Japanese in Europe stimulated an unexpected number of typographical presentations" Boscaro of which this particular Gioliti edition with the titlepage advertising the embassy-Portata de Novo Dal Giapone Dai Signori Ambasciatori-is the very first. Boscaro notes that there were four other editions of Coehho's letter published in Italy in 1585 around the time the embassy arrived in Venice on June 25 including another by Gioliti but none of these uses the embassy as a way to market itself.</p><p>The report itself is also a significant document of the embassy's genesis: Coelho composed it in February 1582 the month that the embassy of four Japanese Christian converts departed from Nagasaki. In it he describes the ongoing missionary activity across the country: e.g. in Hirado Amasuka Bungo and especially Funai Oita City the home of a thriving Jesuit college. Presumably the contents of this letter as the title suggests were "brought from Japan by the eminent ambassadors" as the latest news on the Jesuits current success in that faraway land.</p><p>Though the embassy did not reach Lisbon until August 1584 it eventually was as Coelho had hoped a resounding success: from 1584-86 the four young Japanese nobles were the object of intense curiosity wherever they traveled and they were treated to lavish receptions in Lisbon Madrid Florence Rome Venice and other cities throughout Catholic Europe.</p><p>Provenance: Alfred Hamy 1838-1904 French Jesuit historian and prolific author of books relating to the history of the members of the Company of Jesus.</p><p>OCLC: Cornell NYPL HU and Newberry.
