Title: Atlantic History: Definitions, Challenges, and Opportunities.
Authors: Games, Alison
Source: American Historical Review. Jun2006, Vol. 111 Issue 3, p741-757. 17p.
Subjects: World history, Historical analysis, Historians, History, Ocean
Geographic Terms: Atlantic Ocean
Abstract: The article explores the history of the Atlantic Ocean and discusses the opportunities such a study presents. Atlantic history is a slice of world history. It is a way of looking at global and regional processes within a contained unit. The Atlantic, moreover, is a geographic space that has a limited chronology as a logical unit of historical analysis: it is not a timeless unit. Atlantic history is more than simply the study of a geographic unit; it is also a style of inquiry that reflects the impulse that drew historians in specific fields to Atlantic history in the first place.
