'British Small Craft': the Cultural Geographies of Mid-Twentieth
‘British Small Craft’: the cultural geographies of mid-twentieth century technology and display James Lyon Fenner BA MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2014 Abstract The British Small Craft display, installed in 1963 as part of the Science Museum’s new Sailing Ships Gallery, comprised of a sequence of twenty showcases containing models of British boats—including fishing boats such as luggers, coracles, and cobles— arranged primarily by geographical region. The brainchild of the Keeper William Thomas O’Dea, the nautical themed gallery was complete with an ocean liner deck and bridge mezzanine central display area. It contained marine engines and navigational equipment in addition to the numerous varieties of international historical ship and boat models. Many of the British Small Craft displays included accessory models and landscape settings, with human figures and painted backdrops. The majority of the models were acquired by the museum during the interwar period, with staff actively pursuing model makers and local experts on information, plans and the miniature recreation of numerous regional boat types. Under the curatorship supervision of Geoffrey Swinford Laird Clowes this culminated in the temporary ‘British Fishing Boats’ Exhibition in the summer of 1936. However the earliest models dated back even further with several originating from the Victorian South Kensington Museum collections, appearing in the International Fisheries Exhibition of 1883. 1 With the closure and removal of the Shipping Gallery in late 2012, the aim of this project is to produce a reflective historical and cultural geographical account of these British Small Craft displays held within the Science Museum. -

In Search of the Amazon: Brazil, the United States, and the Nature of A
IN SEARCH OF THE AMAZON AMERICAN ENCOUNTERS/GLOBAL INTERACTIONS A series edited by Gilbert M. Joseph and Emily S. Rosenberg This series aims to stimulate critical perspectives and fresh interpretive frameworks for scholarship on the history of the imposing global pres- ence of the United States. Its primary concerns include the deployment and contestation of power, the construction and deconstruction of cul- tural and political borders, the fluid meanings of intercultural encoun- ters, and the complex interplay between the global and the local. American Encounters seeks to strengthen dialogue and collaboration between histo- rians of U.S. international relations and area studies specialists. The series encourages scholarship based on multiarchival historical research. At the same time, it supports a recognition of the represen- tational character of all stories about the past and promotes critical in- quiry into issues of subjectivity and narrative. In the process, American Encounters strives to understand the context in which meanings related to nations, cultures, and political economy are continually produced, chal- lenged, and reshaped.

The Smacksmen of the North Sea
JOHN RULE THE SMACKSMEN OF THE NORTH SEA LABOUR RECRUITMENT AND EXPLOITATION IN BRITISH DEEP-SEA FISHING, 1850-90 The modern history of British deep-sea fishing begins with the railway expansion of the mid-nineteenth century. Rapid transport and the increasing use of ice as a preservative made it possible for fresh sea fish to enter the diets of the inhabitants of inland towns. Fresh sea fish was regarded as almost a luxury food before the railway age, yet by the third quarter of the nineteenth century, it had become a major protein source for the working classes of the industrial towns, and the fried-fish shop had become a working-class institution. The sea-fishing industry underwent a vast market-induced expansion. The census of 1841 enumerated only 24,000 males as being employed in fishing. By 1881 there were 58,000. If the inland consumer ever gave thought to the fishermen who supplied his table, he probably conjured up a picture of a weather-beaten village fisherman going daily to the fishing grounds to return in the evening to his waiting wife and children, bringing the silver harvest of the sea. While he had been at sea his family had busied themselves baiting lines, making and mending nets, and, in the case of the fish wives, performing their traditional function of selling the catch. Such a picture may have been broadly true of the fishing villages of Scotland, Cornwall, Northumberland or the South coast, but a feature of the second half of the nineteenth century was the creation of a new kind of fisherman who crewed the sailing trawlers of the North Sea. -

Lexique De Vieille-Marine
Lettre A • de Abordage à Aviso Abordage Le terme abordage dérive du mot bord, que l'on retrouve aussi dans tribord et bâbord. Il désigne en premier lieu la collision accidentelle entre deux navires. Par extension, il s'applique également à l'assaut donné par l'équipage d'un navire à un vaisseau ennemi. Il existe, sur le plan technique, deux méthodes d'abordage : - L'abordage de franc étable s'effectue en présentant son avant au navire ennemi. Procédé d'approche rapide présentant l'inconvénient de prolonger la lutte, les assaillants ne passant qu'en petits nombres par le mât de beaupré. - L'abordage en belle, plus efficace, consiste à placer le navire attaquant bord à bord avec l'ennemi, permettant de jeter à l'assaut une équipe d'abordage beaucoup plus fournie. Aborder Accrocher un navire pour le prendre à l'abordage. Accastillage Terme dérivé de castel, désignant les châteaux qui s'élevaient aux deux extrémités des navires à voile. Par extension, c'est le nom collectif donné aux superstructures, roofs, pavois situés au-dessus du pont principal d'un navire, puis aux pièces attenantes à ces parties. Accon ou acon. • Petit bateau à fond plat qui aurait été imaginé vers 1235 par un marin irlandais, Patrice Walton. Naufragé vers la Pointe d'Escale, près du port d'Esnandes (Charente Maritime), il aurait utilisé cette embarcation pour recueillir les coquillages qui l'empêchèrent de mourir de faim. L'accon était facile à manœuvrer et utilisé comme un véritable quai mobile de chaque côté des navires mouillant en rade, à une époque où les ports étaient trop exigus pour recevoir à quai tous les navires. -

Years of creative research by our crew of technical men have led to the great development of metal fish packages-of unique closing machines. These have made it possible to market a better product than was ever packed in the past. The sardine industry-the tuna industry-and the salmon in dustry-together with others vitally concerned with the packing and marketing of fish-will find unusual food for thought by getting the up-to-date facts from Canco.
