This ground-breaking book provides the first study of naval
ideology, defined as the mass of cultural ideas and shared
perspectives that, for early modern states and belief systems,
justified the creation and use of naval forces. Sixteen scholars
examine a wide range of themes over a wide time period and broad
geographical range, embracing Britain, the Netherlands, France,
Spain, Sweden, Russia, Venice and the United States, along with the
"extra-national" polities of piracy, neutrality, and international
Calvinism. This volume provides important and often provocative new
insights into both the growth of western naval power and important
elements of political, cultural and religious history.
