Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the idea of privacy at sea, from early sixteenth-century maritime expansions to nineteenth-century naval developments. In this period, the sea became a focal point of political and economic ambition as technological and cultural shifts enabled a more extensive exploration of maritime spaces and global coexistence at sea. The exploration of the sea and the conflicts arising from establishing control over maritime routes demanded a more nuanced distinction and negotiation between State and private efforts. Privateering, for example, became a bridge between the private enterprises and the State’s warfares or trade struggles, demonstrating that the sea required public control at the same time as it enabled private endeavours. Although this tension between private and public interests has been explored in military and economic studies, questions of how the private appeared in maritime history have been discussed only through a particularly merchantile lens. This volume adds a new dimension to this discussion by focusing on how privacy and the private were perceived and created by the historical agents at sea. We aim to move beyond the mercantile “private” as a direct opposite to the “public” or the State, thereby opening the discussion of privacy at sea as a multiplicity of lived experiences.

Download or read book A South African Convivio with Dante written by Sonia Fanucchi and published by Firenze University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a collection of South African university students’ written responses to the Commedia and scholars’ commentary on them. The students’ collection includes writings of all genres and subjects: prose, poetry, personal reflection, dialogue, non-fiction based on the first two cantiche of the Commedia. Some are autobiographical and others are fictional stories, but they all have in common a very personal (and South African) approach to Dante’s text. The scholarly essays of the second part are concerned with the unusual way in which Dante is appreciated by our youth: not as a remote figure only encountered in the hallways of the literature department, but as an intimate presence, a guide, a friend whose language is familiar and invites a response.

Download or read book Space Time and Language in Plutarch written by Aristoula Georgiadou and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Space and time' have been key concepts of investigation in the humanities in recent years. In the field of Classics in particular, they have led to the fresh appraisal of genres such as epic, historiography, the novel and biography, by enabling a close focus on how ancient texts invest their representations of space and time with a variety of symbolic and cultural meanings. This collection of essays by a team of international scholars seeks to make a contribution to this rich interdisciplinary field, by exploring how space and time are perceived, linguistically codified and portrayed in the biographical and philosophical work of Plutarch of Chaeronea (1st-2nd centuries CE). The volume's aim is to show how philological approaches, in conjunction with socio-cultural readings, can shed light on Plutarch's spatial terminology and clarify his conceptions of time, especially in terms of the ways in which he situates himself in his era's fascination with the past. The volume's intended readership includes Classicists, intellectual and cultural historians and scholars whose field of expertise embraces theoretical study of space and time, along with the linguistic strategies used to portray them in literary or historical texts.
Download or read book Gefangenenloskauf im Mittelmeerraum written by Heike Grieser and published by Georg Olms Verlag. This book was released on 2015-01-30 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der Loskauf von Sklaven und Gefangenen hat den Mittelmeerraum von der Antike bis in die Frühe Neuzeit geprägt. Er stellt, eng verbunden mit der Geschichte der Sklaverei, nicht nur verschiedene Facetten des Bemühens um deren Beseitigung dar, sondern ist darüber hinaus auch selbst ein entscheidender Bestandteil verschiedener Konflikt- und Beziehungsgeschichten. Die vierzehn Beiträge dieses Sammelbandes, die auf eine von der DFG geförderte internationale Tagung im September 2013 in Paderborn zurückgehen, betrachten die Thematik erstmalig unter der vorrangigen Fragestellung nach der Bedeutung von Religion. Sie untersuchen epochenübergreifend und aus jüdischer, christlicher und muslimischer Sicht Praxis und Begründungen des Loskaufs aus den Händen der jeweils Andersgläubigen. Dadurch werden zum einen die in den drei abrahamitischen Religionen jeweils geführten theologiegeschichtlichen Diskurse analysiert und nach Möglichkeit miteinander in Beziehung gesetzt. Zum anderen gelingt es, die bislang dominierende wirtschafts- und sozialgeschichtliche Betrachtungsweise des Loskaufs um die religionsgeschichtliche Perspektive zu ergänzen und damit ein neues, vielversprechendes Forschungsfeld zu präsentieren. Slave redemption and prisoner redemption characterised the Mediterranean region from antiquity to the early modern age. Closely connected with the history of slavery, these phenomena not only represent different facets of the efforts to end slavery but are also in themselves a decisive part of various histories of conflict and relationships. The fourteen essays in this volume, originally presented at an international conference in Paderborn sponsored by the DFG in September 2013, examine the theme for the first time in terms of the fundamental question of the significance of religion. Taking a broad chronological sweep they examine, from Jewish, Christian and Muslim perspectives, the practice and justification of redeeming slaves from the hands of those of other faiths. Thus the theological and historical discourses in each of the three Abrahamic religions are analysed and the links between them established where possible. The approach also adds the perspective of religious history to the previously dominant social and economic approaches to slave redemption, opening up a new and greatly promising field of research.
