DESCRIPTION;ALTREP="CID:<FFFF__=0ABBE548DFE235B58f9e8a93d@coffeebean.com>":
 Maarten Manse will present his talk at&nbsp\;Hans Blix Centre for the Hist
 ory of International Relations\, Stockholm University.&nbsp\;This talk exa
 mines how Southeast Asian rulers navigated and influenced their political 
 relationships with European powers during the era of imperial encroachment
  (eighteenth to twentieth centuries)\, with a particular focus on treaty-m
 aking\, translation\, and diplomatic interaction. It elucidates specific v
 ocabulary in the indigenous versions of original (bi- and trilingual) trea
 ties\, tracing how specific terms reflect local indigenous ideas about dip
 lomacy\, governance\, and political organisation\, drawn from rich manuscr
 ipt traditions of Southeast Asian courts—fluid genres blending theological
 \, philosophical\, and political themes from local (Malay\, Javanese) and 
 foreign (Islamic\, Hindu-Buddhist\, European) origins.\nIn doing so\, the 
 presentation highlights the often-overlooked intellectual engagements betw
 een Southeast Asian rulers and European colonisers\, showing how local rul
 ers may have inadvertently inscribed their values and norms into the diplo
 matic lexicon of treaty-making to safeguard their interests and traditions
 \, and thereby potentially cocreated the legal and diplomatic frameworks o
 f colonialism in the region\, leaving enduring legacies within Southeast A
 sia’s pluralistic and multi-centric geopolitical context.\nTo participate\
 , please register in advance via: felix.gomez@ekohistory.su.se\n\nSerat Se
 la Rasa 1804. British Library MSS Jav 28 ff. 105v-106r.
