Gunn profiles Nagasaki's historic role in mediating the Japanese bullion trade, especially silver exchanged against Chinese and Vietnamese silk. Founded in 1571 as the terminal port of the Portuguese Macau ships, Nagasaki served as Japan's window to the world over long time and with the East-West trade carried on by the Dutch and, with even more vigor, by the Chinese junk trade. While the final expulsion of the Portuguese in 1646 characteristically defines the "closed" period of early modern Japanese history, the real trade seclusion policy, this work argues, only came into place one century later when the Shogunate firmly grasped the true impact of the bullion trade upon the national economy. 650 0 $a Precious metals $z Nagasaki-shi $z Nagasaki-shi $x History. 651 0 $a Nagasaki-shi (Japan) $x History. $x History. 651 0 $a Asia $x History. $x History. 650 7 $a Commerce. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00869279 650 7 $a Precious metals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01074884 651 7 $a Asia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01240495 651 7 $a Japan $z Nagasaki-shi. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01211968 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Gunn, Geoffrey C., author. $t World trade systems of the East and the West $d Leiden : Boston : Brill, [2018] $z 9789004358560 $w (DLC) 2017050557 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214021044.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=91BED20E580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
