La tesi di ricerca ha portato alla realizzazione di un'edizione critica del Giappone di Daniello Bartoli (1660): per la prima volta la «seconda parte» dell'Asia trova, in questo lavoro, una trascrizione integrale condotta con moderni criteri filologi. Quanto all'esegesi la ricerca ha visto la compilazione di tre «Schedari»: un «Indice dei nomi», che vede l'identificazione dei personaggi storici citati esplicitamente nell'opera, ne traccia un rapido profilo biografico e ne fornisce precisa e aggiornata bibliografia. Per quanto riguarda i missionari evocati dall'autore nel testo, questa sezione indica se (e dove) si tratta di personaggio o di fonte (registrando, nel caso, il luogo o i luoghi in cui Bartoli ricorre a tale testimonianza); un «Indice dei luoghi», che dà l'indicazione moderna del luogo citato e ne fornisce il riscontro con i repertori più aggiornati; un «Lessico» riservato ai termini giapponesi presenti nel testo che vengono spiegati e, là dove possibile, studiati nella loro storia, nella loro presenza nella coeva letteratura di viaggio e corredati di utili riferimenti bibliografici. Le pagine introduttive inquadrano l'opera di Bartoli sia nell'orizzonte biografico dell'autore sia nel milieu gesuitico barocco, fornendo puntuali coordinate storiche grazie alle quali recuperare il più ampio contesto delle missioni gesuitiche nell'Estremo Oriente tra Cinque e Seicento. Particolare attenzione è stata riservata al modo di intendere il compito dello storico da parte di Bartoli: una storiografia la sua che s'intreccia in modi affatto peculiari alle diverse forme stilistiche e dinamiche retoriche richieste dalle altre due grandi attività a cui egli dedicò impegno e passione: l'insegnamento e la predicazione.

This research thesis is the accomplishment of the critical edition of Giappone, by Daniello Bartoli (1660): for the first time "the second part" of Asia is fully transcribed through modern philological criteria. About the exegesis, the research work consisted in compiling three "Schedari": - An "Index of names", where historical figures explicitly mentioned in the text are identified with their biographies (that provides the identification of the historical figures explicitely mentioned in the work, tracks their biographical profile and provides a precise and up-to-date bibliography). Concerning the missionaries recalled by the author in the text, this section specifies if (and where) they consist in real figures or sources, reporting the place or the places where the evidence is used by Bartoli; - An "Index of locations (site) that gives a modern indication of the place mentioned in the text and provides a crosscheck with the most up-to-date references; - A "Lexicon" devoted to the Japanese terms found in the text. Here they are explained and, wherever possible, studied in their history (historical meaning), in their presence in the contemporary travel literature and enriched with useful bibliographical references. The introductory pages set the work of Bartoli in the biographical horizon of the author and in the Jesuit Baroque milieu, providing precise historical coordinates through which to retrieve the widest context of the Jesuit missions in the Far East between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Particular attention has been reserved to the way Bartoli proceeded with the assignment of the historian: his historiography is interlaced in a quite peculiar way to the different stylistic forms and to the rhetorical dynamics required by its two other great activities, to which he devoted commitment and passion: Teaching and Preaching.

"In The Martyrs of Japan, Rady Roldán-Figueroa examines the role that Catholic missionary orders played in the dissemination of accounts of Christian martyrdom in Japan. The work combines several historiographical approaches, including publication history, history of missions, and "new" institutional history. The author offers an overarching portrayal of the writing, printing, and circulation of books of 'Japano-martyrology.' The book is organized into two parts. The first part, "Spirituality of Writing, Publication History, and Japano-martyrology," addresses topics ranging from the historical background of Christianity in Japan to the publishers of Japano-martyrology. The second part, "Jesuits, Discalced Franciscans, and the Production of Japano-martyrology in the Early Modern Spanish World," features closer analysis of selected works of Japano-martyrology by Jesuit and Discalced Franciscan writers"-- Provided by publisher.
