Then he may be threading his dangerous way through reefs and islands, heaving his lead, consulting his chart, and calculating his reckoning, at every moment. Then the risks of war and piracy, and in un known seas, of hidden banks and shelves - every where of fogs, which hide his course, and storms that drive him from it. So like the vicissitudes of a whole life, are all his v0yages, that we read the details of his route, even his dry log-book, with a fellow-feeling of interest and anxiety. Then we have the enjoyment of his adventures, without their dangers. It is pleasant to listen to perils we do not share - Qto feel our hearts beat, not from fear, but from interest and excite ment. It is pleasant, when the winds are rousing the waves, to look out, from the shore, on the Open sea, and see another's peril: not because we are pleased that another suffers.

Download or read book Art and the Sea written by Emma Roberts and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2022-04-15 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection re-examines the relationship between art and the sea, reflecting growing interest in the intersections between art and maritime history. Artists have always been fascinated by and drawn to the sea and this book considers some of the themes and approaches in art that have evolved as a result of this captivation. The chapters consider how an examination of art can provide new insights into existing knowledge of port and maritime history, and are representative of a ‘cultural turn’ in port and maritime studies, which is becoming increasingly visible. In Art and the Sea, multiple perspectives are offered as a result of the contributors’ individual positions and methodologies: some museological, others art historical or maritime-historical. Each chapter proposes a new way of building upon available interpretations of port and maritime history: whether this be to reject, support or reconsider existing knowledge. The book as a whole is a timely addition, therefore, to the developing body of revisionist texts in port and maritime history. The interdisciplinary nature of the volume relates to a current trend for interdisciplinarity in art history and will appeal to those with an interest in art history, geography, sociology, history and transport / maritime studies.
Download or read book A Sea of Misadventures written by Amy Mitchell-Cook and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2013-11-30 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Sea of Misadventures examines more than one hundred documented shipwreck narratives from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century as a means to understanding gender, status, and religion in the history of early America. Though it includes all the drama and intrigue afforded by maritime disasters, the book's significance lies in its investigation of how the trauma of shipwreck affected American values and behavior. Through stories of death and devastation, Amy Mitchell-Cook examines issues of hierarchy, race, and gender when the sphere of social action is shrunken to the dimensions of a lifeboat or deserted shore. Rather than debate the veracity of shipwreck tales, Mitchell-Cook provides a cultural and social analysis that places maritime disasters within the broader context of North American society. She answers questions that include who survived and why, how did gender or status affect survival rates, and how did survivors relate their stories to interested but unaffected audiences? Mitchell-Cook observes that, in creating a sense of order out of chaotic events, the narratives reassured audiences that anarchy did not rule the waves, even when desperate survivors resorted to cannibalism. Some of the accounts she studies are legal documents required by insurance companies, while others have been a form of prescriptive literature—guides that taught survivors how to act and be remembered with honor. In essence, shipwreck revealed some of the traits that defined what it meant to be Anglo-American. In an elaboration of some of the themes, Mitchell-Cook compares American narratives with Portuguese narratives to reveal the power of divergent cultural norms to shape so basic an event as a shipwreck.
