Maritime Exploration und Expansion haben die eurasische Geschichte seit der Antike nachhaltig geprägt. Kapitäne, Händler und Eroberer verbanden lange vor Kolumbus den Atlantik, das Mittelmeer und den Indischen Ozean zu einem pulsierenden Netzwerk, das die Grundlagen bildete für die neuzeitliche Erschließung aller Meere des Globus. Der Band führt Experten verschiedener Epochen und Disziplinen zusammen. Sie erklären vergleichend und epochenübergreifend die Voraussetzungen, Verläufe und Folgen, die der Aufbruch über die Meere auf die Politik, Wirtschaft und kulturelle Entwicklung hatte. Dabei wird nicht nur die europäische, sondern auch die indische und chinesische Perspektive berücksichtigt. Während der erste Teil sich der Erschließung des Indischen Ozeans und des Atlantik widmet, zeigen die Beiträge des zweiten Teils, wie maritime Entdeckungen das geographische Weltbild veränderten und Nachrichten von fernen Kulturen Ethnographie und Reiseliteratur befruchteten. Die maritime Expansionsgeschichte ist dabei nicht nicht nur durch Brüche, sondern auch durch erstaunliche Kontinuitäten und Parallelen gekennzeichnet. Es eröffnen sich Perspektiven, die moderne Entwicklungen wie das Projekt der "Neuen Chinesischen Seidenstraße" gar nicht mehr so neu erscheinen lassen. The exploration of sea routes and distant shores has been a crucial aspect of Eurasian history since ancient times. Long before Columbus, seafarers, traders, and conquerors built a thriving network across the Atlantic, the Mediterranean, and the Indian Ocean. This is the first book to consider maritime exploration's conditions, processes, and effects on political, economic, and cultural developments.

This study aims to provide new insights into the connections between maritime history and global history. It demonstrates the significance of maritime activity as a conduit of global exchange by examining local, national, and international interdependencies and trade networks, and a broad range of time periods, geographical areas, and various sub-divisions of maritime historical research. It is composed of ten essays, with an introductory chapter and concluding chapter. The first five essays discuss the effects globalisation on shipping in the early modern period; the following three discuss maritime transportation and the economics of industrialisation from the nineteenth century to the present day; the next discusses the impact of global entrepreneurialism on maritime history; the penultimate discusses the connections and variables between maritime and global history; and the concluding chapter examines the theoretical assumptions surrounding the two disciplines, using the globalisation of Early Modern Spain as a case study to do so. The study demonstrates that the core strength of maritime history is its essential place in global history, and that the process of globalisation began at sea.
