Sea Narratives: Cultural Responses to the Sea, 1600-Present
explores the relationship between the sea and culture from the
early modern period to the present. The collection uses the concept
of the 'sea narrative' as a lens through which to consider the
multiple ways in which the sea has shaped, challenged, and expanded
modes of cultural representation to produce varied, contested and
provocative chronicles of the sea across a variety of cultural
forms within diverse socio-cultural moments. Sea Narratives
provides a unique perspective on the relationship between the sea
and cultural production: it reveals the sea to be more than simply
a source of creative inspiration, instead showing how the sea has
had a demonstrable effect on new modes and forms of narration
across the cultural sphere, and in turn, how these forms have been
essential in shaping socio-cultural understandings of the sea. The
result is an incisive exploration of the sea's force as a cultural
presence.
