| contents | The Library Catalogue of Diogo Valente is Book Collection in Macao (1633). A Philological and Bibliographical Analysis Noël Golvers Historia Among the sources on Western books in the Jesuit mission in China and Macao, the 1633 inventory of the collection of Diogo Valente, bishop of Japan, is one of the most striking documents. Investigation of the ca. 280 different titles most of them identified shows Valente is major interest in religious topics and church organization,and an almost inexistent presence of books on science. The inventory reflects a rather chaotic library organization, with several duplicates and triplicates; other books were apparently incomplete. This may be due to the different sources of the book supply, partly by Valente himself, partly by Trigault (both arriving in Macao almost simultaneously), whereas other items may have been received in deposito from the Macao Procura, and new acquisitions kept arriving from Europe until the late 1620s/early 1630s. One may suppose that these books, after Valente is death, returned to the Procura, whereas most of them entered the main library of the Colegio Madre de Deus, and were consulted there by the next generations of Jesuit residents and novices, preparing their passage to China. 2006 artículo científico 0874-8438 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=36101301 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=361 Bulletin of Portuguese - Japanese Studies application/pdf Universidade Nova de Lisboa Bulletin of Portuguese - Japanese Studies (Portugal) Vol.13 |
