  • The RMS Titanic: How Did the Disaster Impact Ordinary Civilians, Families and Communities? Essay: Started – 14.08.19 Completed – 01.03.20
    The RMS Titanic: How did the disaster impact ordinary civilians, families and communities? Essay: Started – 14.08.19 Completed – 01.03.20 On the night of the 14th April 1912, the sinking of the RMS Titanic became one of the largest marine disasters to ever be recorded. 1,500 passengers and members of crew died (Wikipedia), most of hypothermia, freezing in the bitter Atlantic waters. The story of this luxury cruise liners’ tragic maiden voyage is widely known, so much so that in 2012, the Smithsonian Museum in Washington declared ‘Titanic’ the third most recognised word in the world - after God and Coca Cola (Durkee, 2017). The Titanic is not just remembered today because it sank. It is also remembered for its intricate designs built on a colossal scale that still contribute to ship architecture. It is still today referred to as a ‘floating palace’ (Wilson, 2011) because of its grand interior features. Contemporary ships and hotels try to emulate the style that captured so many imaginations originally. My research has shown me that many historians don’t seem to consider the human side of the disaster, and the impact on families of their loved ones perishing at sea. Nor do they spend time looking at the psychological effect of the ordeal on the survivors. Often it is the disaster, beauty, design or scale of the ship that is concentrated on in many sources I have read. This essay shall focus on the different lives of the people on board and assess how the disaster impacted ordinary civilians, families and communities.
