Search for the Real Christian Daimyo Takayama Ukon ( Kirishitan Daimyoh Takayama Ukon o Oe )

Toshio Takahashi

The direct or indirect testimony of 25 contemporaries brings into sharp relief the image of Takayama Ukon, the Christian feudal lord who was exiled from Japan to Manila rather than renounce his faith. They include 15 other lords, 4 missionaries, 2 evangelists, a tea master, a Buddhist monk opponent, Gracia Hosokawa, the wife of a lord, and Will Adams, the foreign advisor of the shogun. He is shown to be a man who gave up his domain to keep his faith, hope and love for Christ. Forest Books. B6 size, 144 pp.
