Abstract

The English government struggled for thirty years to receive restitution for the incident they had come to know as the Amboyna Massacre. This chapter traces the repercussions in the Indian Ocean and especially in Europe. In England, the English traders who had survived the conspiracy trial became the key witnesses for the East India Company. This chapter explores how these men created new lives for themselves in the wake of the trial. A central component to the success of the East India Company in securing restitution was the publication of old and new Amboyna pamphlets, as well as new illustrations, especially during the 1650s and the First Anglo-Dutch War. The Treaty of Westminster resolved all outstanding claims in 1654, but the animosities of the Amboyna crisis ensured that the English remained dissatisfied with a financial settlement alone and still looked for justice.
大灾变
英国政府花了30年的时间,争取得到他们后来所知的“阿姆博伊纳大屠杀”的赔偿。本章追溯了在印度洋,特别是在欧洲的影响。在英国,在阴谋审判中幸存下来的英国商人成为东印度公司的关键证人。本章探讨了这些人如何在审判之后为自己创造了新的生活。东印度公司成功获得赔偿的一个核心因素是出版新旧Amboyna小册子,以及新的插图,特别是在1650年代和第一次英荷战争期间。《威斯敏斯特条约》在1654年解决了所有悬而未决的索赔问题,但对安博伊纳危机的敌意使英国人仍然不满足于仅仅解决财政问题,仍然在寻求正义。
