520 |a This book brings together a group of noted contributors to evaluate the different ways in which seas have served as subjects in historiography and asks how this has changed - and will change - the way history is written. The essays in this volume provide exemplary demonstrations of how a sea-based history - writing that focuses on connectivity, networks, and individuals - describes the horizons and the potential of thalassography - the study of the world made by individuals embedded in networks of motion. As the editor contends in his introduction, writing about the sea is a way of partaking in the wider historiographical shift toward microhistory; exchange relations; networks; and, above all, materiality, both literally and figuratively. This book focuses not on questions of discipline and professionalization as much as on the practice of scholarship: the writing, and therefore the planning and organizing, of histories of the sea. -- Publisher's website.
