"This volume brings together for the first time a collection of twelve articles written
both jointly and individually by Peregrine Horden and Nicholas Purcell as they have
participated in the debates generated by their major work, The Corrupting Sea: A Study
of Mediterranean History (2000). One theme in those debates has been how a comprehensive
Mediterranean history can be written: how an approach to Mediterranean history by
way of its ecologies and the communications between them can be joined up with more
mainstream forms of enquiry - cultural, social, economic, and political, with their
specific chronologies and turning points. The second theme raises the question of
how Mediterranean history can be fitted into a larger, indeed global history. It concerns
the definition of the Mediterranean in space, the way to characterise its frontiers,
and the relations between the region so defined and the other large spaces, many of
them oceans, to which historians have increasingly turned for novel disciplinary-cum-geographical
units of study. A volume collecting the two authors' studies on both these themes,
as well as their reply to critics of The Corrupting Sea, should prove invaluable to
students and scholars from a number of disciplines: ancient, medieval and early modern
history, archaeology, and social anthropology"
