Consequently, nautical fiction as a category of writing can hardly be traced in the history of Indian literature. Nautical fiction as a substantial body of writing emerged from Anglo-American history of maritime experience. This paper is an attempt to perceive Amitav Ghosh’s novel, Sea of Poppies as an Indian response to the sub-genre.

  • Traversing the Nautical Gothic in the Touching and Melancholy Narrative of Marian Moore (1853)
    Dearly Departed, Yet, Returned: Traversing the Nautical Gothic in The Touching and Melancholy Narrative of Marian Moore (1853) Danielle Cofer Abstract: Scholars have explored the genres of Shipwreck narratives, women’s writings about life at sea, and the nautical Gothic. Bringing these fields together in conversation with Marian Moore’s The Touching and Melancholy Narrative of Marian Moore, the Shipwrecked Female Sailor (1853) reveals tensions between horrifying experiences with shipwreck and subsequent cannibalism at sea and life on land for women in the mid-nineteenth century. Moore details her encounters with death throughout, which ultimately prepare her for the prolonged social death she endures once back on land ensnared in class and gender conventions. The irony of Moore’s narrative is that the threat of the sea proves to be far less harrowing than the entrapment of static domesticity. Instead of being the place of danger and death, the sea becomes a source of knowledge and a sanctuary from the true horror of the social conditions Moore contends with back on land. ____________________ Nautical fiction and narratives of sea travel resonated with nineteenth-century American audiences because they carried with them the fulfillment of flights of fantasy and the romance of exploration that could be read from the safety of one’s home. Indeed, “a desire for the physical and mental freedom of open ocean experience” permeates many sea narratives, fulfilling “the blue-water fantasies of men and women who ride ferries or sail yachts alongshore.”1 Yet, even beyond escapism and the promise of experiencing a different lifestyle or landscape amongst the waves and ocean swells, audiences sought much more than just knowledge of a mariner’s or seafarer’s firsthand account of maritime life.

    RICE UNIVERSITY Maritime Networks: The Oceanic Imaginary in the British Long Nineteenth Century by Mark Celeste A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE Doctor of Philosophy APPROVED, THESIS COMMITTEE Helena Michie, Chair Agnes C. Arnold Professor in Humanities, Professor of English Betty Joseph Associate Professor of English Leo Costello Associate Professor of Art History HOUSTON, TEXAS April 2019 Copyright Mark Celeste 2019 ABSTRACT Maritime Networks: The Oceanic Imaginary in the British Long Nineteenth Century by Mark Celeste This project argues that maritime history and culture shape both the form and the content of the nineteenth-century British novel. Each chapter takes up a different historical genre of maritime writing—the shipwreck tale, the steamship story, the logbook, the sea chantey, and the ship surgeon’s manual—as a heuristic for oceanic reading. In recovering these maritime contexts, I track what I call the “oceanic imaginary”: not only how novels literally represent life on and around the ocean, but also how novels draw upon oceanic circulations and exchanges to imagine and craft complex literary systems. Specifically, I chart how novels incorporate historically specific maritime styles, allusions, and structures and how those texts, in so doing, register the flows and frictions of a radically networked world—a world connected and divided, more often than not, by water. As I show, we can read any novel as maritime fiction— regardless of whether the action takes place on land or at sea—if that novel registers the influence of maritime history upon its textual world. My project merges the historicist concerns of oceanic studies with the renewed critical attention to form.

  • Core Competencies: Collection Knowledge (PDF)
    Readers’ Advisory @ Your Library Core Competencies Toolkit Introduction One of the principal functions of OPLA‘s Readers‘ Advisory Committee is to raise the standards and strengthen the guidelines for readers‘ advisory services province-wide through the development of a toolkit elaborating areas of ―core competencies.‖ Each area of competency is intended to outline the knowledge and skills needed for public library staff to provide readers‘ advisory services to adult readers. What is a core competency? A core competency is defined as: the skills, know-how, and attributes that enable library staff to effectively deliver knowledgeable and appropriate reading suggestions, in both direct and indirect ways, so readers are encouraged to explore library collections and services. The Committee has established the following four areas of core competencies: 1. Collection Knowledge, 2. Reader Service Skills, 3. Readers‘ Advisory Conversation and, 4. Reader Development The work of the Committee on further elaborating each of these competencies is ongoing and evolving. The four sections of the toolkit will be posted on the website as they are completed. The Committee hopes that the competencies toolkit will be valuable to readers‘ advisors as they: write public service job descriptions; hire and evaluate staff; and plan training opportunities that ensure staff develop (or enhance) the specific skills and behaviours associated with successful service provision. 1 Collection Knowledge Definition: Understanding of, and familiarity with, the depth and breadth of materials and resources in the branch and/or system, including material in all formats and media, both fiction and non-fiction. This involves: 1. Using reading lists, suggestions from the media, schools and community groups, and personal knowledge of current culture; 2.

  • Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America
    “The Test of Salt Water”: Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America Bryan Charles Sinche A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English. Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by Advisor: Philip F. Gura Reader: William L. Andrews Reader: Joy S. Kasson Reader: Timothy Marr Reader: Eliza C. Richards © 2006 Bryan C. Sinche ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Bryan C. Sinche: “The Test of Salt Water”: Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America (Under the direction of Philip F. Gura) In “The Test of Salt Water”: Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America, I argue that fictional and non-fictional antebellum sea literature offers a valuable lens through which to critique authorial responses to race, social class, and economic mobility. The antebellum sailor populating the pages of the sea narrative was often celebrated as a representative American figure and a source of national pride despite the fact that, as a member of the antebellum working classes, he was a living testament to the limits of economic and social advancement in a nation where such limits were supposedly nonexistent. Authors used this disconnect, as well as the extra-national settings and generic conventions unique to the sea narrative, both to illuminate foundational American ideals and expose the failure of those ideals to improve materially the lives of sailors. In first section of The Test of Salt Water, I draw on writings by common sailors as well as well- known narratives authored by upper-class former seamen such as James Fenimore Cooper and Richard Henry Dana to map the rhetorical battles that helped to define the sailor within antebellum class hierarchies.
