De aankomst van vier Nederlandse schepen in de haven van Banten op Java in 1596 was het begin van een intensieve Nederlandse bemoeienis met Azië. Zonder het te beseffen gaf deze handelsexpeditie tevens het startschot voor de wetenschappelijke studie van de gebieden waar de VOC, en later de Nederlandse staat, actief zouden zijn. De eerste leerstoel Arabisch in Leiden werd al in 1613 gevestigd, maar hoogleraren Javaans, Maleis en Chinees en Japans volgden pas midden-19e eeuw. Sanskriet moest wachten tot 1865. Ondanks deze wat trage start is de studie van Azië in Leiden daarna exponentieel gegroeid en inmiddels is zij niet meer weg te denken uit de Leidse Universiteit. Deze rijk geïllustreerde wandelgids biedt enkele hoogtepunten en hoofdlijnen van deze geschiedenis en laat zien hoe de studie van Azië verbonden is met de stad Leiden.
Tweetalig: Nederlands en Engels.
De wandelgids kan via Nederlandse boekhandels besteld worden.
The arrival of four Dutch vessels in the harbour of Banten, Java, in 1596 formed the beginning of the intensive Dutch involvement in Asia. Unintendedly, this trade expedition was also the kick-off for the study of the areas where the Dutch East India Company, and later the Dutch state, would be active. The rst professorship in Arabic was created as early as 1613, but Javanese, Malay, Chinese, and Japanese would only follow in the mid-19th century. Sanskrit would have to wait until 1865. Despite this somewhat slow start, however, Asian studies subsequently grew exponentially, and at present it would be impossible to imagine Leiden University without them. This richly illustrated walking guide presents some highlights and outlines of that story, and gives insight into the close relationship between the study of Asia and the city of Leiden.
Bilingual: English and Dutch.
The walking guide is available via Dutch book shops.
