SoSe 17: Oceans in Global History

Nadin Heé

Kommentar

In global history, interconnectedness seems to be one of the magic words. As one of the interactive spaces that facilitated exchange, trade, and communication across national boundaries and over extended periods of time, the great oceans have received considerable attention by scholarship.
This is an established area of research within historiography, beginning with Fernand Braudel’s classic work on the Mediterranean, first published back in 1949. Following in his footsteps, many scholars have focused on different oceans as regions, so there are a broad range of existing studies to draw on, often focusing in particular on the Atlantic and the Indian Ocean, but also on other seas. While the main body of this research is still dealing with entanglements in the pre-modern period, there are more and more studies arguing that oceanic spaces continue to be important well into modern times.
This seminar will give an overview on this growing body of historiography. We will ask what are the advantages and limitations inherent within this perspective on global history. Can this approach be used to overcome Euro- or Ethno-centric narratives? Are we able to overcome container-based thinking when we focus on ocean spaces? If not interconnectedness, what else can we reveal through the oceanic lens? Schließen
