Rework[edit]

I have extensively reworked the previously (unreferenced) article on this topic, added a lot of information, split it into sections, added references, images, supporting articles and a navbox. I intend to fill in the gaps over the coming weeks in the history, economy, religion and education sections, while expanding others. Also on the way are articles on the Guo Huaiyi Rebellion and the Pacification Campaign against the aborigines. Taffy (talk) 02:33, 11 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Question[edit]

So Dutch ruled Taiwan before Chinese? --Korsentry 02:23, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, the Dutch were the first outsiders to rule (part of) Taiwan. Then came Koxinga's Kingdom of Tungning, which counts as the first Chinese government of Taiwan (even though Koxinga was half-Japanese himself). Taffy (talk) 03:08, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

References[edit]

I realise there are books in the references section which are not yet referenced - this will be fixed shortly. Taffy (talk) 17:24, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into History of Taiwan?[edit]

Should this be merged into History of Taiwan, or is it a preferred practice to have it separate since it was formerly Dutch colony and seemed to have official administrative status? Mistakefinder (talk) 14:00, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading Image Caption[edit]

The image "18th century Dutch map of the Pescadores" is clearly a modern watercolor, done on commercial watercolor paper . . . it seems wrong to pass it off as historical material. (Graffiacane (talk) 16:10, 7 December 2010 (UTC))[reply]

The Dutch were militarily defeated by China which forced them to withdraw from their fort on Penghu[edit]

The article is portraying history as though the Dutch kindly listend to the Chinese suggestion to move from the Pescadores to Taiwan. That is not how it happened. The Dutch refused to move and tried to force China into submitting by raiding Chinese coastal cities in Fujian. The Dutch were defeated in both their raids, Chinese forces took Dutch Captains prisoner, and when Chinese fleets took the fight to the Pescadores themselves and forced the Dutch to surrender and leave to Taiwan.

As for the Dutch depredations along the coast of Fukien in the 1 620's and early 1630's, the 'Red-haired barbarians' were effectively chased away and in 1633 soundly beaten at Liaolo by the legendary smuggler- turned-admiral, Zheng Zhilong.

Records of Dutch women held captive as concubines by Koxinga[edit]

Dutch language Primary Sources

R ij s s e n, geboren te Haarlem, hertrouwde op Formosa in Dec. 1658. Maar van hen, die vermoord zijn, heeft Hambrouck altijd het meest de aandacht en de belangstelling getrokken 1). En niet zonder reden. Hij was de Hollandsche Regulus. Zijn edel gedrag is zoowel in proza als in poëzie door een aantal schrijvers met lof vermeld, en zijne edelmoedigheid, standvastigheid en onbevreesdheid door de schilderkunst vereeuwigd. Toen het eiland door den Chineeschen zeeroover Coxinga ten deele bemachtigd werd, was Hambroeck, met zijne vrouw, een zoon en eene dochter, in 's vijands handen gevallen, terwijl twee zijner dochters2) gevlucht waren op het fort Zeelandia, dat nog tegenstand bood. Terwijl op het eiland alles in de macht van Coxinga was en men aldaar de afschuwelijkste wreedheden3) pleegde, ') Nieuhof, t. a. p., bl. 45, 46.

  • ) De dochter van Hambroek, genaamd Helena, was in Jan. 1659 te Mattauw getrouwd met Johannes van der Burch, en zijn andere dochter, Henica, in Mei van hetzelfde jaar insgelijks op Formosa gehuwd met Dominicus van Vorster. — Herport dwaalde alzoo, toen hij schreef: »Zwey Töchteren, deren die einte in der Ehe, die andere aber noch ledig war," (bl. 46, 74 en 75). En eveneens Wouter Schouten. Deze zegt: »de eene gehuwd, de andere noch vrijster," (I, 167). Dit is fout, beide dochters waren getrouwd op Formosa, beiden geboren te Schipluiden, bij Delft, waar hun vader vijftien jaren lang, van 1632 af, predikant was geweest. Hambroek was geboren te Rotterdam in 1607 en te Leiden als student opgenomen in het staten-college. Over de historische waarde van het verhaal zijner zelfopoffering is indertijd een belangrijke strijd gevoerd tusschen prof. L. G. Visscher, Dr. Wap en prof. Lauts.

3) Een Hollandscn predikant werd gekruisigd, terwijl hij den vijfden dag daarna aan het kruis nog leefde en eindelijk stierf Een onderwijzer werd jammerlijk omgebracht, nadat zijne vrouw voor zijn oogen geschoffeerd was. (herport, bl. 73, 74). Te Sakam waren bij de honderd personen gevangen. Sommigen hunner hebben 22 jaren gezeten. Vele Hollandsche vrouwen hadden als slavinnen der Chineesche njonja's een ondragelijk lot. Herhaalde, vergeefsche expeditiên tot de herovering van het eiland werden ondernomen. De 1ste met 12 schepen, vertrok van Batavia 1 Juli 1663 onder Bort; de 2de met 16 schepen; de 3de weer met 12 bodems, 7 Juli 1664. (Borts Voijagie, naer de kuste van China en Formosa. Bijeengestelt, en Berijmt door Matthijs Cramer. 't Amsterdam, gedrukt bij Pieter Dircksz Boeteman, op de Negelantiersgraft, voor den Auteur, 1670, kl. 8°, bl. 46,50, 60, 78, 103, 106 en 107). » Het overblijfsel dezer ellendige gevangenen .... hebben eindelijk het geluk gehad van door den Tartarischen Veldheer, die dat eiland den Sinezen afgenomen heeft, in volle vrijheid gesteld te worden, en zijn met hun elven in Siam aangekomen, van waar wij dezelve met d'eerste gelegenheid te gemoet zien." (Brief van Batavia aan cl. v. Amst., 30 Nov. 1684; Dalrymple, Oriental Repository, Vol. II, p. 179 sq.).[1][2]


Coxinga had na Zeelandia's val het zwaard tot kouter doen omsmeden, van Formosa eene bloeiende, vooral eene productieve kolonie gemaakt. De nijvere chineesche landbouwer was reeds tijdens het beleg aan 't werk getogen, de rijstvelden, de suiker- en de theetuinen vermenigvuldigden zich alom. Het scheen zijn streven ieder teeken, ieder aandenken van het hollandsche regiment te doen verdwijnen en duur had hij, in de maanden des belegs, het verlies van zoovelen der zijnen gewroken aan den westerling en den inboorling beide. Ook het bloed zijner landgenooten, ten jare 1652 door deze christenen in eene barbaarsche rechtspleging vergoten, vond in hem een wreker. Een deerlijk lot was ten deel gevallen aan de gevangen Comp. dienaren en hnnne gezinnen, aan predikanten, schoolmeesters, soldaten en burgers. Coyet had gelegenheid gehad den koopman Loenius, drie hollandsche vrouwen en eenige christen-inboorlingen van een der bedreigde kuststations te doen afhalen en overbrengen naar Desima. Meerdere europeesche vrouwen en kinderen waren uit Zeelandia vooruit gezonden naar Batavia, zoodra de draden strak begonnen te staan. De predikanten Cruyf en Masius waren den algemeenen doodendans ontsprongen door de vlucht. Zij vormden als 't ware de eerste geredden van een zinkend schip.

Maar de hoofden van Hambroek en de zijnen waren gevallen, terwijl zestienhonderd mannen ongeveer, door het zwaard en door ziekte, in dit noodlottig beleg waren omgekomen. Een der predikanten werd aan het kruis genageld; hij leefde nog tot den vijfden dag. Enkele slachtoffers moesten voordat de chineesche beul hen kwam onthalzen, „getuygen zijn van het godloos schenden hunner vrouwen." Een tolk en een schoolmeester waren beschuldigd geworden van opruiing der Formosanen tegen de Chineezen en deswegen veroordeeld. Hambroek leefde toen nog en had de gunst verworven om voor deze ongelukkigen een gebed te doen. ,,'t Welk gedaen zijnde wierden zij elk aen een bysonder kruys gehecht, de handen kruyswys over 't hoofd en over malkander geleydt en met een spijker vast gemaekt; door yder hiel en kuyt wierd mede een spijker geslagen, als ook door de armen. Zij hingen alzoo drie dagen lang zonder eten en drinken onder de bewaring van ons eygen volk, die met bloote houwers daerbij mosten zitten; ende zijn daerna, noch niet heel dood zijnde, nae Sincan gevoert en aldaer mede ten toon gestelt, ende na haer overlijden ook begraven."


Bij de vermeestering van het fort Provincia had Coxinga ongeveer een honderdtal der inwonenden gevangen en tot slaven gemaakt; voor sommigen zou de ellende der chineesche slavernij tweeëntwintig jaren lang gerekt worden, meerderen nog daarin den dood vinden. De vrouwen van omgebrachte godsdienstleeraars, van nederlandsche ambtenaren en militairen werden onder de chineesche officieren verdeeld. Hambroeks derde dochter kwam in Coxinga's „vrouwen-huys" terecht. Het zwaarst woog dit slavinnenlot op degene, die in het huis van gehuwde officieren kwamen, d. i. onder den voet hunner „jaloersche en bittere wyven." De minnenyd van chineesche njonja's wist voor hen kwellingen uit te vinden, feller dan het woeden van den krijg hen reeds had doen uitstaan. Sommigen werden ten doode toe mishandeld en bestierven het ten leste, „na onuitdrukkelijke spijt, hoon, smaadheden en onlijdelijke pijn uitgestaan te hebben."[3][4][5][6]


M A A T Z U I K E R. Daar was ook niemand in het kafteel die genegen was om op de fchoone beloften van een Zeerover ftaat te maken ‚ maar ieder wilde zich licver dood vechten. Men zocht zelfs Hambroek te bewegen om in het kafteel te blyven , maar zyn vrouw en kinderen in dien flaat niet begeerende te verlaaten, omhelsde alle zyne vrienden en bloedverwanten ‚ en hen het laatfte vaarwel gezegd hebbende keerde hy met dit antwoord na het vyandlyk leger te rug; doch dit manmoedig antwoord vertoornde Coxinga zodanig dat hy hem het hoofd deed afflaan De andere gevangene Nederlanderen trof geen beter lot; want nadat men derzelver vrouwen voor hunne oogen op de beeftachtigfte wyze gefchonden had , wierden zv , zo mannen als vrouwen, in ftukken gehakt.[7]


Van ons volk, die aen Saccam ende ten platten lande en in des vyands banden gevallen zyn, schryft de commandeur, Caeu, met generale termen, dat bet zeker is, dat meest alle de soldaten in 't fort, Provincia, benevens de meeste polityken ende alle de predicanten (uytgesondert d' Leendertsz) ende andere, die te lande waren ende die haer op het ernstig aenschryven van den drost aen Coxin op Saccam overgegeven bebben, zyn onthoofd en andersints om 't leven gebragt; ende dat de Duytse vrouwen noch hier en daer onder zyn volk zwerven, waer van de moyste door zyn officieren tot hyzitten worden gebruykt ende een jonge docbter van d' Hambroek in 't vrouwen-buys van Coxin is genomen. De gouverneur ende raed schryven, dat Coxin, nae 't zeggen van eenige overloopers, korts nae het gevecht, op den 16'n September voorgevallen, den drost, Valentyn, den predicant, Leonardis, en de landmeter, Brummer, met hare huysgesinnen, nae China zoude hebben gesonden, hehoudende aen Provincia 2 harbiers, een land-meter en 5 of 4 andere persoonen, daer onder een schipper ofte stierman; hebbende alle de andere mans-persoonen in verscheyden dorpen gevoert, ook eenige omtrent Provincia gedoodt, mitsgaders de vrouwen zeer ellendig hier en daer onder zyn volk verstroyt. Heeft ook van de gevangens, in de Piscadores bekomen, 10 persoonen elk d'eene hand, mitsgaders de neus en ooren afgesneden en alsoo bebloedt nae Tayoan gesonden. De vervoering van den landdrost en an lere nae China schynt noch nader bevestigt te worden uyt zekere missive, door den zelven drost aen Saccam in date den 26'n July lestleden aen den gouverneur geschreven ende den eersten Augusti ontfangen, waer by gesien wordt, dat Coxinja bem alsdoen heeft laten aenzeggen, dat hy die reyse eerlang zoude moeten aenveerden. De brief luyd, als volgt: [8] Toch keerde Hambroek naar de legerplaats terug (*). De Sinees was over den uitslag van de zending ten hoogste vergramd, doch offerde den edelen man niet dadelijk aan zijne verbolgenheid op. Niet lang evenwel duurde het of, hebbende doen uitstrooijen dat de gevangen Nederlanders zich beijverden de Formosanen tegen hem op te hitsen, deed hij ruim vijfhonderd menschen, onder welken onderscheidene onderwijzers, alsmede eenige predikanten, ook Hambroek en zijn' zoon ombrengen, doende hunne vrouwen en dochters openlijk verkrachten en onder de zijnen voor slavinnen uitdeelen.[9][10]


Werden de mannen wreedaardig omgebracht, niet veel beter was het lot der Hollandsche vrouwen. Dezen werden onder de Chineezen verdeeld, waarbij zij er het best aan toe waren, die aan ongehuwden ten deel vielen. Maar zij daarentegen, die door dezen of genen gehuwden »Overste” genomen werden, konden wegens hun jaloersche en bittere »Wijven” haar leed niet overzien. Vele van haar werden‚ als de verachtelijkste slavinnnen tot de meest vernederende diensten gebruikt, en »zijn eindelijk, onder dien last gesmoord, en, na onuitdrukkelijke spijt, hoon, smaadheden en onlijdelìjke pijn nitgestaan te hebben, aan een droevig einde geraakt” 2).

Het voorgevallene met Hambroek is bekend; de dichter heeft den naam van het eiland Formosa en van den Hollandschen Regulus tot het nageslacht overgebracht en in den mond des volks bewaard 3). Ter staving van het verhaal van Valentijn omtrent het gedrag van dien moedigen evangeliedienaar bij de verovering van Zeelandz'a is het verhaal van Herport niet onbelangrijk 4). Deze was Zwitsersch soldaat in dienst der O.-Ind. Compagnie en tegenwoordig bij het verlies van Formosa 5). Dezelfde bijzonderheden worden door verschillende schrijvers soms met bijna dezelfde woorden verhaald. Herport zegt van de dochters vanHambroek: »....hat aber noch zwei Töchteren allda in der Festung, deren die einte in der Ehe, die andere aber noch ledig war"‘6). Wouter Schouten verhaalt van haar, dat de eene dochter was gehuwd, de andere »noch vrijster”7)‚ [11]

Wives and daughters of Dutch taken as concubines—Sold to soldiers[21]

After our people had been murdered, the Dutch women who remained were divided among the Chinese; the most fortunate being those who were assigned to unmarried men. Those who were claimed by chiefs already married suffered greatly at the hands of their jealous and vindictive wives. Some of them were compelled to do the work of the meanest slaves, and after enduring unspeakable grief, injury, and reproach, died of broken hearts in shame and wretchedness.[22]


Koxinga received his answer sternly: then causing it to be rumoured that the prisoners excited the Formosans (Aborigines) to rebel against him, ordered all the Dutch prisoners to be killed; this was accordingly done, some being beheaded, others killed in a more barbarous manner, to the number of 500, their bodies stripped quite naked, and buried fifty and sixty in a hole; nor were the women and children spared, many of them likewise being slain, though some of the best were preserved for the use of the commanders, and the rest sold to the common soldiers. Happy was she that fell to the lot of an unmarried man, being thereby freed from vexations by the Chinese women, who are very jealous of their husbands. Among the slain were Messrs. Hambrocock, Mus, and Winshaim (or Winshem or Wenshain), clergymen, and many schoolmasters, who were all beheaded."[23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36]

Koxinga received his answer sternly; then, causing it to be rumoured that the prisoners incited the Formosans to rebel against him, ordered all the Dutch male prisoners to he slain. This was accordingly done; some being beheaded, others killed in a more barbarous manner, to the number of five hundred; their bodies stripped quite naked, and buried fifty and sixty in a hole. Nor were the women and children spared, many of them likewise being slain, though- some of the best were preserved for the use of the commanders, and the rest sold to the common soldiers. Happy was she that fell to the lot of an unmarried man, being thereby freed from vexations by the Chinese women, who are very jealous of their husbands. Among the slain were Messrs.

"His wife and two children were detained as hostages; and he had no hope but that death would be his portion, if he failed in his uegociations. Yet instead of urging surrender, this noble man cheered the garrison on to make a gallant defence, by hopes of relief, assuring them that Koxinga had lost many of his best ships, and soldiers, and began to weary of the siege. Two of his daughters who were within the fort, flung themselves upon him, and implored him to remain ; their entreaties were seconded by the council of war, but with unselfish devotion he roplied that, unless he returned, his wife and children would perish, and that, he hoped to be of service to his poor fellow prisoners. So saying he left with the Governor's refusal to surrender. Koxinga listened sternly to the answer, and then ordered all the Dutch male prisoners, to the number of five hundred, to be put to death. This was done, many of the women and children were also slain, though it is stated, "some of the best, were preserved for the use of the commanders, and tho rest sold to the common soldiers." Messrs Hambrocock Mus, and Winshaim, clergymen, and several sohoolmasters, perished in this massacre."[54]



"The daughter of the Rev. A. Hambroek, a very sweet and pleasing maiden, Koxinga took to be one of his concubines, and she had, consequently, been placed in his harem." [55][56][57][58][59]


"Contemporary records unite in singling out the case of Rev. Antonius Hambroek, who was sent by Koxinga into the castle, under a flag of truce, to propose terms of surrender, and told to back these up with threats of most terrible vengeance. Mr. Hambroek was forced to leave his wife and two children (one of them described as a sweet and comely maiden of eighteen) in the invader's camp as pledges, which sufficiently proved that any failure of his undertaking would be a most ominous signal for those poor defenceless ones...Koxinga received his answer sternly, and without further delay issued an order for the massacre of all Dutch captives, and of every native who persisted in the profession of Christianity; Hambroek himself was put to death by decapitation, and the before-mentioned daughter compelled to become a member of his murderer's harem."[60][61]

"But nothing more is needed to settle the question under discussion than a reference to what took place between this chieftain and the Rev. Mr. Hambroek. The latter was sent into Castle Zeelandia to advise his countrymen against a continuance of the struggle, but he rather exhorted them to hold on, and then took his life in his hand with the message to Koxinga that the besieged would on no account allow the subject of surrender to be mentioned, although they were quite prepared to make every honourable attempt to meet the wishes of His Highness; which reply so enraged Koxinga that he soon after ordered Hambroek to be beheaded. Meanwhile the daughter of this brave Christian martyr, who is described as having been a very sweet and pleasing maiden, was chosen by Koxinga himself and made a member of his harem."[62][63]

"Many of these wretched people, including the dauntless Hambroek and some of the women and children, were beheaded. Some, more unhappy still, were crucified. One of Mr. Hambroek 's daughters Koxinga took into his own harem, while the remainder of the women were divided amongst his officers."[64]

Meanwhile, the love and good-will of the inhabitants gradually decreased, owing to their having received a letter from the Governor of Fort Provintia —written by command of Koxinga—which stated that if they would submit to the authority of the invading Chief, he would grant them the same terms as he had given to the garrison of that place. These terms the inhabitants —except a few who remained to the north of Zant river, probably with the intention of proceeding later on to Kelang and Tamsuy—considered it most advantageous for them to accept, seeing that the position was now a very lamentable one, especially for theirwives and children, and that there prevailed among the soldiers a spirit of disobedience and discord. Moreover, one hundred and sixteen persons, among whom were four clergymen and five judicial officers, had joined the Dutch inhabitants near Provintia. One and all were suffering from want of provisions, and the enemy were also in much the same condition.[65]


Modern sources


The Dutch women were used for sexual pleasure by Koxinga's commanders.[66]


A teenage daughter of the Dutch missionary Anthonius Hambroek became a concubine to Koxinga, she was described by the Dutch commander Caeuw as "a very sweet and pleasing maiden".[67][68]

Some Dutch physical looks like auburn and red hair among people in regions of south Taiwan are a consequence of this episode of Dutch women becoming concubines to the Chinese commanders.[69]

The Chinese took Dutch women as slave concubines and wives and they were never freed: in 1684 some were reported to be living, in Quemoy a Dutch merchant was contacted with an arrangement to release the prisoners which was proposed by a son of Koxinga's but it came to nothing.[70]http://books.google.com/books?id=oaP2UFZVGDoC&pg=PA96&dq=dutch+concubines+koxinga&hl=en&sa=X&ei=oi10VMyTOoq_sQTq0ILABA&ved=0CB4Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=dutch%20concubines%20koxinga&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=oaP2UFZVGDoC&pg=PA96&dq=dutch+wives+zeelandia&hl=en&sa=X&ei=uCp0VPKGE4zGsQSB_IDABQ&ved=0CDoQ6AEwBQ#v=onepage&q=dutch%20wives%20zeelandia&f=false


The Chinese officers used the Dutch women they received as concubines.[71][72][73]

This event of Dutch women being distributed to the Chinese soldiers and commanders was recorded in the daily journal of the fort.[74]




During the Siege of Fort Zeelandia, Chinese Ming loyalist forces commanded by Koxinga besieged and defeated the Dutch East India Company and took Dutch women and children prisoner. The Dutch missionary Antonius Hambroek, two of his daughters, and his wife were among the Dutch prisoners of war with Koxinga. Koxinga sent Hambroek to Fort Zeelandia demanding he persuade them to surrender or else Hambroek would be killed when he returned. Hambroek returned to the Fort, where two of his other daughters were. He urged the Fort not to surrender, and returned to Koxinga's camp. He was then executed by decapitation, and in addition to this, a rumor was spreading among the Chinese that the Dutch were encouraging the native Taiwan aboriginals to kill Chinese, so Koxinga ordered the mass execution Dutch male prisoners in retaliation, in addition to a few women and children also being killed. The surviving Dutch women and children were then turned into slaves. Koxinga took Hambroek's teenage daughter as a concubine,[75][76][77] and Dutch women were sold to Chinese soldiers to become their wives, the daily journal of the Dutch fort recorded that "the best were preserved for the use of the commanders, and then sold to the common soldiers. Happy was she that fell to the lot of an unmarried man, being thereby freed from vexations by the Chinese women, who are very jealous of their husbands."[78] In 1684 some of these Dutch wives were still captives of the Chinese.[79]
