Taiwan is an island located off the east coast of southern China. It is the largest piece of territory under the jurisdiction of the “nation” known officially as the Republic of China. Taiwan is a place of contradictions. Its successful economic and political modernization have stimulated the imaginations of most observers. Still its nation-state status has been constricted and weakened. It covets and pursues peace; yet it is a vortex actor in global strategic/military competition. It is small; yet its importance far exceeds its size. It has long occupied a critical place in history; even though it has not sought this it appears inevitable that it will continue to be so. This fourth edition of Historical Dictionary of the Taiwan (Republic of China) covers its history through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 600 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Taiwan.

The book, Europe Meets Formosa, 1510-1662, two Historical Studies, comprises two parts. They both cover some aspects of the history of East-West encounters on the Island of Formosa (as it was callled by the Europeans, better known today as Taiwan), and each can be read as a stand-alone study. It looks at the Island's history after it became known to the Europeans and before Taiwan's population became predominantly Chinese, following large-scale immigration, initially encouraged by the Dutch colonizers. Part I investigates the story of Portuguese "discovery" and "naming" of Formosa in the sixteenth century, in the context of conflicting claims and recent scholarly debates in Taiwan which challenged these conventional wisdoms. Relying on Portuguese rutters (sailing instructions), maps and other first-hand documents, it aims at eliminating historically erroneous claims and moving the readers to an informed consensus on this matter. Earlier and shorter versions of this study, related but different, have appeared in peer-reviewed journals in Europe (Anais de história de além-mar, Lisbon, in English) and in Taiwan (臺灣史研究 Taiwan Historical Research, Taipei, in Chinese), respectively. Part II deals with the history of Dutch efforts to educate, civilize and convert the aborigines of Formosa between 1624 and 1662, drawing on a large body of mostly Dutch primary sources. It revisits the stories of mission schools for Formosan aborigines, examines what motivated the colonizer to devote resources to this objective; how differentiating identities of the colonized such as race, age, gender, language, and faith, had influenced school policies over time; and what were some of the native responses. This study is published here for the first time. This publication is available as an e-book, an environmentally responsible and less costly alternative recommended by this author; and, if preferred by the readers, in print form (the latter with greyscale instead of full-colour illustrations). All citations and additional comments are included as endnotes (e-book) or footnotes (print), and the cited works of the two parts are listed separately in the bibliography.
