Full title: The Diplomatic Correspondence between Asian Rulers and Batavia Castle during the 17th and 18th centuries: The Digital Reconstruction of a lost Treasure.
By The Corts Foundation and ANRI, 2015
Abstract
The project about the 'Diplomatic Letters' has been part of the TCF-project 'Digital Archive Systems at ANRI' and resulted in articles that were written about these unique letters. The articles represent the nature of the more than 4300 letters that were sent to Batavia during several decennia, and some of the answers to these letters. The letters that were selected are documented extensively and introduced scientifically.
The Dutch texts in the original handwritings are translated into Indonesian and English to be accessible for a broad international audience. The articles are bundled in this publication. More information can be found on the Indonesian website of Sejarah Nusantara.
