Negotiating Waters: Seas, Oceans, and Passageways in the Colonial and Postcolonial Anglophone World
Year: 2019 Language: english Author: André Dodeman, Nancy Pedri Genre: Maritime History Publisher: Vernon Press Edition: July 9, 2019 ISBN: 9781622737581 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 214 Description: This book examines how seas, oceans, and passageways have shaped and reshaped cultural identities, spurred stories of reunion and separation, and redefined entire nations. It explores how entire communities have crossed seas and oceans, voluntarily or not, to settle in foreign lands and undergone identity, cultural and literary transformations. It also explores how these crossings are represented. The book thus contributes to oceanic studies, a field of study that asks how the seas and oceans have and continue to affect political (narratives of exploration, cartography), international (maritime law), identity (insularity), and literary issues (survival narratives, fishing stories).
