| description | This article presents and contextualizes an excerpt from the work *Itinerário de las Missiones del India Oriental* (1649), authored by the Augustinian friar Sebastião Manrique (c. 1590-1669). The text focuses on the troubled voyage undertaken by the missionary between Manila and Macau in the period from 1637 to 1639, situated within the context of European "encounters and missed encounters" in the South China Sea. After his attempt to enter Japan was thwarted by the violent persecutions against Catholicism, Manrique undertakes a return journey marked by adverse conditions.
The account offers a vivid description of the perils of seventeenth-century navigation, highlighting the storm that forced his vessel to winter in Cochinchina (present-day Vietnam). Beyond its documentary value concerning maritime risks and missionary life, Manrique's narrative reveals fundamental aspects of seventeenth-century regional geopolitics. The author underscores the growing economic complementarity and the instinctive military alliance between the settlements of Manila and Macau, united by the need for resistance against the pressure and expansion of the Dutch East India Company (VOC). This anthology thus constitutes an essential primary source for the study of exchange networks, Iberian diplomacy in Asia, and the history of the Order of Saint Augustine in the Far East. |
