Description
An account of the resource
William Adams (1564-1620) was the first Englishman to reach Japan, arriving on a Dutch ship at Bungo (a principality containing present day Usuki City) in May 1600. After a summons by the Emperor at Osaka, imprisonment and interrogation, he was released. The Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu took a liking to Adams and he eventually became an important trade adviser and interpreter. A status and name change from Adams the English sea pilot to Miura Anjin the samurai enabled him to marry a Japanese woman and reside on a large estate at Hemi, near Yokosuka. His first communication to his European wife and friends was in 1611 where he noted: "The people of this Island of Japan are Good of Nature, courteous above Measure, and Valiant in War ...". His account of Japanese life was first published in Purchas his Pilgrimes (1625) the account in Harris is a later printing. James Clavell's novel Shogun (1975) was based loosely on Adams' life and adventures.

Description
An account of the resource
Surgeon James Johnson (1777-1845) was on board the 36 gun ship Caroline, commanded by B. W. Page. Dedicated to Henry Lord Viscount Melville, this work contains a topographical and picturesque sketch of all the places annually visited by the British East India and China fleets, including Madeira, Ceylon, Madras, Bengal, Malacca, Sumatra, Macao and Canton. After sailing through a typhoon, the Caroline eventually arrived at Canton, in early December 1804.
According to Johnson, 'Hog-lane' was the sailor's pleasure-spot, where they would lose their money and get drunk. Anecdotes abound of incidents between the Chinese and the English 'tars'.

At the age of seventeen, the Venetian Marco Polo (1254-1324) travelled with his merchant father, Nicolo, and his uncle, Maffeo, to the court of Kublai Khan. Polo was away from Venice for twenty-four years. His account of his travels and of the Peking (Beijing) court and its riches afforded the European world its first knowledge of the East. To some his stories were so fantastic that he was dubbed Marco Millioni, 'man of a million lies'.

'I consider it a singular plan of the fates that human cultivation and refinement should today be concentrated, as it were, in the two extremes of our continent, in Europe and in Tshina (as they call it), which adorns the Orient as Europe does the opposite edge of the earth.' So wrote G. W. Leibniz (1646-1716), the German philosopher and mathematician, in his preface to Novissima Sinica (News from China), a collection of missionary reports and letters on China. Two questions from the text highlight the practical nature inherent in the book: 'Whether nothing is known of the sea between North Asia and North America' and 'whether there were any artificial economic devices of the Chinese for toiling the field and garden, which are of worth and useful to be described?' This is the second edition of 1699.

"In Mr Heine's notes we find the following in reference to this bird: 'I found this species in various places around Macao. Like nearly all the other birds, it had retired to the rocky hills, where it hopped gaily from bough to bough, or flitted from rock to rock, sometimes solitary, but frequently in pairs. Its movements were short, and sometimes eccentric. When anything unusual attracted its attention, it raised its crest, and looked at the object with an expression of intense curiosity.' The figure in our plate is of the size of life, and represents the adult male" (Perry, 1856, v.II, 241).

Description
An account of the resource
From the middle of the seventeenth to the beginning of the nineteenth-century, Japan, through the Tokugawa Shōgunate, was successful in rigorously enforcing a policy of seclusion. No Europeans were allowed into Japan except the Dutch who were allowed to land a ship every yEar In July 1853 Commodore Matthew Perry, with a squadron of four ships-of-war entered Uraga Bay, just south of Yokohama. He returned the next year and a treaty was signed to allow the opening of Shimoda (south of Numazu and Mishima) and Hakodate (on Hokkaido) to ships seeking provisions. This contact represented the 'opening' of Japan (Dai Nippon) to the modern world.

Description
An account of the resource
This detail shows "two of the vessels made use of by the Chinese. The first of these marked (A), is a junk of about a hundred and twenty tons burthen, and was what the Centurion hove down by; these are most in the great rivers, though they sometimes serve for small coasting voyages. The other junk, marked (B), is about two hundred and eighty tons burthen. ... its head, which is represented at (C), is perfectly flat; and when the vessel is deep laden, the second or third plank of this flat surface is oft-times under water. The masts, sails and rigging of these vessels are ruder than the built; for their masts are made of trees, no otherwise fashioned than by barking them, and lopping off their branches. Each mast has only two shrouds of twisted rattan; which are often both shifted to the weather-side; and the halyard, when the yard is up, serves instead of a third shroud. The sails are of matt, strengthened every three feet by an horizontal rib of bamboo; they run upon the mast with hoops, as is represented in the figure, and when they are lowered down, they fold upon the deck" (Anson, 1776, 414-415).

Description
An account of the resource
Between 1630 and 1830 Japan's borders were virtually closed to western visitors. The only Europeans allowed into Japan were the Dutch. Atlas Japannensis: being remarkable addresses by way of embassy from the East-India Company of the United Provinces to the Emperor of Japan (1670) was based on the writings of Arnoldus Montanus (1625-83), a Dutch missionary. The map publisher John Ogilby "English'd, and Adorn'd" this large folio book, the earliest major work written on Japan. It contains over sixty black and white engravings and is packed with detail, including such subjects as murder in Japan, Japanese baths, Japanese tortures, wines and Whaling The engraving depicts the city of Yedo or Edo (now Tokyo). Dr Thomas Hocken visited Japan; his visit is noted on the title-page 'T.M. Hocken, Yokohama, March 1904.'

An account of the resource
"The Society of Jesus was founded in 1539 by St Ignatius of Loyola. From their base at Goa, India, the Jesuits ventured forth to Japan and China: their goal to spread Christianity and promote the work of the Society. Over the years, their written accounts of Chinese life and customs grew. Athansius Kircher (1601-1680), a Jesuit mathematician, produced the wonderfully illustrated China Monumentis (1671). His work reached a wide audience, and promoted much that was new about China and her people. Kircher was also one of the first Europeans to alert the West to Egyptian hieroglyphics. Here he contrasts them with Chinese characters.

An account of the resource
Chirimen books are thought to have been invented in August 1885, when a Japanese fairy tale series was published by Hasegawa Takejiro (1853-1936). The books were illustrated by Sensei Eitaku. Thirty-one popular Japanese folktales were translated into English. Under special contract with Griffith, Farran & Co., the first 16 books of the fairy tale series were printed by Kobunsha with the Griffith, Farran & Company imprint. The special printings for Griffith, Farran & Company were published ca 1888. Pictured is the cover for no. 9. 'The Serpent with Eight Heads' showing the top half of the huge Eight-Headed Serpent - the other half spans the back cover of the book.
