A New Naval History brings together the most significant and
interdisciplinary approaches to contemporary naval history. The
last few decades have witnessed a transformation in how this field
is researched and understood and this volume captures the state of
a field that continues to develop apace. It examines - through the
prism of naval affairs - issues of nationhood and imperialism; the
legacy of Nelson; the socio-cultural realities of life in ships and
naval bases; and the processes of commemoration, journalism and
stage-managed pageantry that plotted the interrelationship of ship
and shore. This bold and original publication will be essential for
undergraduate and postgraduate students of naval and maritime
history. Beyond that, though, it marks an important intervention
into wider historiographies that will be read by scholars from
across the spectrum of social history, cultural studies and the
analysis of national identity. -- .
