    Among Ships of Thieves on Waves of Change Mike Thomin Over the past few decades maritime historians have focused on pirates operating in the Caribbean Sea during the early eighteenth century. Historians such as Marcus Rediker, David Cordingly, Peter Leeson, and Angus Konstram examined pirates during this “Golden Age of Piracy.”1 They popularized the idea that the shipboard life of these maritime predators was quite egalitarian and democratic, especially when contrasted with contemporary Western social and cultural structures in ports as well as on board naval and merchant ships. This era of piracy has captivated popular culture throughout the last century and a half through the ever expanding matrix of literature and film. However, another period of major pirate activity in the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea that reverberated across the Atlantic world during the first decades of the early nineteenth century has largely been neglected both by maritime historians and the public. To date some scholars have explored the economic, political, military, legal, and systematic aspects of Atlantic world privateering, piracy, and the Anglo-American naval response to it during the early nineteenth century.2 Nevertheless, much work still remains to be done to more fully understand this complex period of nautical crime and the sailors who contributed to it.3 A better understanding of these maritime criminals might be found in examining the sociocultural structures on board pirate vessels in the early nineteenth century from the perspective of these pirates. The definition of the term “structures” varies, but it is nonetheless one of the most fundamental concepts in the social sciences.4 William Sewell’s use of the term structures incorporates both cultural and social aspects keeping it from being too rigid and constant.

  • Abstract Corsairs in Drain Pipes an Examination of the Submariner Folk
    Abstract Corsairs in Drain Pipes An Examination of the Submariner Folk Group in The United States Navy During the Second World War By Zachary T. Mason October, 2014 Director: David Stewart Department of History During the Second World War, United States submariners were isolated from the rest of the Navy. Submariners faced a higher level and different type of danger than the rest of the Navy. They developed their own way of speaking, a unique worldview, and their own traditions. Although it is widely recognized, especially among contemporary sources, that submariners shared a unique bond, nothing has been published that examines submariners as a cultural group. This project will examine submariners as a distinct sub- culture within maritime culture. In doing so, the author hopes to identify and examine the reasons for its formation. This project will focus on the United States Navy during World War Two. This project utilizes firsthand accounts of submariners and an examination of actual submarines, submarine memorials, and submariner material culture to identify, explain, and define submariner culture.

  • Northwest Region Speaker's Bureau
    Northwest Region Speaker’s Bureau FPAN can help facilitate speakers for meetings of your civic group, community organization, youth club, or heritage society, and for lecture series and special events. In addition to staff, we also can draw on the expertise of University of West Florida professors and graduate students as well as on local professional historians and archaeologists. Most presentations last about 30-45 minutes with additional time for questions, although programs usually can be tailored for your needs. Specific topics are dependent on speaker availability, so book early! There is no charge for presentations, although donations are gratefully accepted to support FPAN educational programs. Take a look at our offerings below, then contact us at [email protected] or [email protected] and let us know what you’d like to learn about! If you don’t see what you’re looking for, ask us and we’ll do our best to accommodate you. Della Scott-Ireton, PhD, RPA Della is the FPAN Associate Director. Her research interests are in nautical and underwater archaeology, public interpretation of maritime heritage, and involving the public in the understanding of the past. Della can speak about: Shipwrecks of Northwest Florida The Panhandle of Florida is the site of hundreds of historic shipwrecks, the result of centuries of maritime commerce, conflict, and travel. Three of these wrecks are featured in this presentation: USS Massachusetts, the nation’s oldest battleship sunk for target practice off Pensacola; SS Tarpon, a merchant vessel famous for its weekly trips between Mobile and Panama City until it was lost in a gale; and Vamar, sunk at Port St Joe under mysterious circumstances during World War II.
