从阿根廷的黎巴嫩政治家到瑞典的伊拉克移民，今天可以在世界各地找到中东基督徒。然而，这种全球移徙往往被视为纯粹的现代发展，是中东当代政治和宗教紧张局势造成的。事实上，这种类型的流动性在近代早期就有了更早的表现。从16世纪开始，奥斯曼帝国的基督徒开始向遥远的世界和异国他乡进发，远至欧洲、印度、俄罗斯甚至美洲，在无数欧洲和中东的档案馆、大教堂和图书馆中留下了他们的足迹。本文提出了一个框架，以了解运动在早期现代世界的方式，尽可能多地关注移民如何理解自己的旅行，以当代欧洲的想法，东方基督教的流动性。关注两种来源传统的交叉点，我在这里探讨欧洲和东方基督教关于移民的观点如何相互借鉴，以强大的，相互构成的方式相互加强和喂养。在这样做的过程中，本文试图为我们理解早期现代世界的流通和流动的日常经验做出贡献。
ABSTRACT From Lebanese politicians in Argentina to Iraqi immigrants in Sweden, Middle Eastern Christians can be found today scattered across the entire world. Too often, however, this global migration has been seen purely as a modern development, one arising from contemporary political and religious tensions in the Middle East. In fact, this type of mobility had earlier manifestations in the early modern period. From the sixteenth century onwards, Christians from the Ottoman Empire set out for distant worlds and foreign lands, travelling as far as Europe, India, Russia and even the Americas and leaving traces of themselves in countless European and Middle Eastern archives, chanceries and libraries. This paper lays out a framework for understanding movement in the early modern world in a way that pays as much attention to how migrants understood their own travels as to contemporary European ideas about Eastern Christian mobility. Focusing on the intersection of two traditions of sources, I explore here how European and Eastern Christian perspectives about migration drew from one another, reinforcing and feeding on each other in powerful, mutually constitutive ways. In doing so, this paper seeks to make a contribution to our understanding of the everyday experience of circulation and mobility in the early modern world.
