<span style="font-family:"New serif",serif; color:black">The “Aftermath of the East Asian War of 1592-1598” project is a five year, European Research Council Starting Grant project (2018-2023) run by ICREA professor Rebekah Clements at the Autonomous University
of Barcelona. The project seeks to understand the legacy of the East Asian War of 1592-1598, also known as the Imjin War and Toyotomi Hideyoshi’s invasions of Korea. Aftermath will be the first large scale investigation to combine Japanese, Korean, and Chinese
sources in order to understand, not the war itself, but something which is arguably even more important: the aftermath and its implications for early modern East Asia. Our research focuses on three themes; Social change / Environment and economy / Diffusion
of Technology. <span style="border:none windowtext 1.0pt; padding:0cm">For more information about the “Aftermath of the East Asian War of 1592-1598” project, please go to our website </span> </span><span style="color:black"><a href="https://aftermath.uab.cat/news/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:"New serif",serif; color:blue; border:none windowtext 1.0pt; padding:0cm">https://aftermath.uab.cat/news/</span></a></span><span style="font-family:"New serif",serif; color:black"> <span style="border:none windowtext 1.0pt; padding:0cm">.</span> <span style="border:none windowtext 1.0pt; padding:0cm"> </span> </span><span style="font-size:11.5pt; color:black"> </span><span style="color:black"> </span></p>
