For over
3,000
years, the Mediterranean Sea has
been one of the great centres of world civilization.
From the time of Troy until the middle of the
nineteenth century, human activity on and around
the sea has decisively shaped much of the course
of world history. David Abulafta
s
The Great Sea is
the first complete history of what has happened on
and immediately around the Mediterranean, from
the erection of the mysterious temples on Malta
around
3500
ВС
to the recent reinvention of the
Mediterraneans shores as a tourist destination.
The focus of the book is on places and individuals,
showing the degree to which human beings have
aflccted this extraordinary environment. Abulafia
describes the teeming port cities that have
been particularly influential or representative
during particular periods
—
cities such as Amalfi,
Alexandria, Venice, Trieste and Salonika
—
which
he argues have prospered because of their ability
to allow many different peoples, religions and
identities to co-exist, sometimes within very
confined spaces, right up to the twentieth century.
He also brilliantly populates the book with
identifiable individuals whose lives illustrate with
great immediacy the wider developments he is
describing
—
Muslim and Jewish pilgrims heading
east from Spain in the twelfth century AD, a
deluded Messiah in seventeenth-century Smyrna,
as well as the kings of Norman Sicily, Ottoman
sultans and naval commanders from Britain, France
and Tsarist Russia.
The Great Sea ranges stupendously across time and
the whole extraordinary space of the Mediterranean,
from Gibraltar to Jaffa, Genoa to Tunis. Rather
than imposing a false unity on the sea and
the human activity it has sustained, the book
emphasizes diversity
-
ethnic, linguistic, religious and
political
-
and traces how it became probably the
most vigorous place of interaction between different
societies on the face of the planet . Readers will
leave it with their understanding of those societies,
their histories and their connections enormously
enriched.
