Muut tiedot

The Confucian scholar Sekisu Nagakubo (1717-1801) was greatly inspired by the world map published in China in 1602 by the Jesuit missionary Matteo Ricci (1552-1610) for the Emperor of China Ming Shenzong.

From about 1614 onwards, Japan increasingly established a policy of seclusion from the rest of the world - carefully controlling trading contacts - which lasted to the mid-nineteenth century; knowledge of the outside world ossified, so Japanese cartographers had to rely on early seventeenth century maps to portray their world-view.
