Oceanic Histories is the first comprehensive account of world
history focused not on the land but viewed through the 70% of the
Earth's surface covered by water. Leading historians trace the
history of the Indian, Pacific, and Atlantic Oceans and seas, from
the Arctic and the Baltic to the South China Sea and the Sea of
Japan/Korea's East Sea, over the longue duree. Individual chapters
trace the histories and the historiographies of the various oceanic
regions, with special attention given to the histories of
circulation and particularity, the links between human and
non-human history and the connections and comparisons between parts
of the World Ocean. Showcasing oceanic history as a field with a
long past and a vibrant future, these authoritative surveys,
original arguments and guides to research make this volume an
indispensable resource for students and scholars alike.
