Making a Descriptive Catalogue of Historical Documents in European Languages Relating to early modern Japan

历史研究所一直在收集大量用欧洲语言撰写的有关近代日本早期的历史资料的缩微胶片复制品。该研究所已经出版了详细的目录，涵盖了很大一部分。在这个项目中，我们审查收集从文本的关键和结构的角度来看。我们试图对一些尚未编目的部分进行描述性编目，并在现有编目的基础上增加一些编目信息。1.修会档案：（1）我们正在对保存在里斯本阿茹达公共图书馆的《亚洲耶稣会》手抄本中有关日本使命的耶稣会信件进行描述性编目。（2）其中一位成员访问了位于马德里的伊比利亚美洲方济会档案馆，并列出了有关日本方济会的文献。2.荷兰东印度公司档案：（1）我们正在建立一个数据库，其中包含“巴达维亚的Uitgaand Brielboek 1621- 1792”中所包含的文献，现在大约有42500条记录。其中一部分可通过研究所网站（http：//www.hi.u-tokyo.ac.ip/tokushu/DacEnglish/index.）查阅。html）。(2)We重新排列了“Dagregisters gehouden door opperhoofden货车de Nederlandse factory in Japan”的列表。在这个列表中，我们可以看到不同档案组中的不同文本。(3)We 3.其他荷兰档案馆：我们收集了一些关于取代东荷兰联合公司的机构（如Comite Oost-Indische Handel en Bezittingen，Ministerie货车Kolonien）制作的文件的信息，并收到了一些复制品。我们的一位成员还访问了印度尼西亚的Arsip Nasional Republik，并调查了“Algemeene Secretary”的文件。4.英国东印度公司（EIC）：我们收到了一些保存在大英图书馆的EIC文件的微缩胶片复制品。

The Historiographical Institute has been collecting a large quantity of microfilm reproductions of historical source materials written in European languages concerning early modern Japan. The institute has published detailed inventories covering a good portion of them.In this project we review the collection from a text critical and structural view point. We tried to make a descriptive catalogue for some part which were not yet catalogued and add some inventorial information to the existing ones. We also collected some new reproductions.1.Archives on monastic orders :(1)We are making a descriptive catalogue of Jesuit letters relating to the mission in Japan in the codex "Jesuitas na Asia" preserved in Biblioteca Publica da Ajuda, Lisboa.(2)One of the members visited Archivo Franciscano Ibero-Americano, Madrid and listed the documents about the Franciscan in Japan.2.Archives on Dutch East India Company (VOC) :(1)We are making a database of the documents contained in "Batavia's Uitgaand Brielboek 1621-1792', now about 42500 records. Part of it can be accessed via the institute's website (http://www.hi.u-tokyo.ac.ip/tokushu/DacEnglish/index. html).(2)We rearranged the list of the "Dagregisters gehouden door opperhoofden van de Nederlandse factory in Japan". In this list we can see variant texts in different archival groups.(3)We received new reproductions of the archives of the Huydecoper family, preserved in the national archives in Utrecht, which included some documents relating to Japan.3.Other Dutch Archives : We gathered information about the documents produced by the institutions replacing VOC, such as Comite Oost-Indische Handel en Bezittingen, Ministerie van Kolonien and received a few reproductions. One of our members also visited Arsip Nasional Republik Indonesia and investigated the documents of "Algemeene Secretarie".4.British East India Company(EIC) : We received some microfilm reproductions from the documents of the EIC preserved in the British Library.
