Recenzii
"It is this story of Rangaku (Dutch Studies in Japan) which is the central topic of Christopher Joby’s masterful new book, published in January by Brill [...].
The many interesting results Joby has produced in the pursuit of this new, multidisciplinary approach to the case of Rangaku, are underpinned by a formidable scholarly apparatus. [...].
Great praise, then, for Joby’s wide ranging, solid and impressive new study – for its clarity of structure, its thoroughness of substance and apparatus, its innovative combination of disciplines and the depth of analysis this has made possible; for his exemplary grip on this complex subject matter, with its multitude of data, detail, sources, languages and speakers; for the force of his conclusions on the impact this contact with the Dutch has had on Japanese culture and society; and last but not least, for the quality of his many well-chosen and beautifully reproduced illustrations. Page after page, one encounters the same delightful scholarship, with which Joby sets a standard that will last long. His book is a major contribution to Japanese and Asian Studies, and will strongly appeal also to scholars in many other fields, such as Dutch studies, book history, translation studies, European expansion, colonial lexicography, multilingualism, and above all contact linguistics." ~ Reiner Salverda, University College London, UK, in Dutch Crossing (June 2021), DOI: 10.1080/03096564.2021.1937780.
“[…]Joby’s comprehensive approach – combined with an eye for the telling detail – makes The Dutch Language in Japan an extremely worthwhile read. There is much to savor and learn here for Dutch historians.” ~ Martine van Ittersum, University of Dundee in BMGN — Low Countries Historical Review, (Vol. 136, 2021), review 41.
"Dit werk zal ontgetwijfeld een belangrijke bron van informatie en referentie worden voor onderzoekers in een breed domein. [...] Dit boek is een aantrekkelijk gepresenteerde, waardevolle en rijke bijdrage, niet alleen aan de geschiedenis van culturele en wetenschappelijke uitwisseling tussen Japan en Nederland, maar ook aan bredere taalkundige en interculturele studies. Ik heb het met plezier en interesse doorgenomen en zal het zeker nog regelmatig van de plank halen." ~ Henk de Groot, Professor Emeritus, in Neerlandia (126/3, 2022), pp. 44-45.
