- Floor, Willem "The Persian Gulf: The Economic and Political History of Five Port Cities, 1500-1730"

The Persian Gulf: The Economic and Political History of Five Port Cities, 1500-1730

This book provides the most comprehensive overview to date of the Persian Gulf at a time of major political change, including the successive
arrival of the European 'trading companies'. The study emphasizes the role of the local elites and how its members manipulated and used the
administrative structures for their own gain. It also delves into various aspects of the governance of the ports. Based on a large variety of
sources in ten languages, including unpublished information from Dutch and Portuguese archives, it makes clear that the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman were an integrated part of the Indian Ocean network in terms of trade, culture, migration and politics. Despite that interconnectedness there were significant differences between the various competing Persian Gulf ports. These differences (as well as the similarities) in the political economy of each of the five major ports of the period (Hormuz, Bandar `Abbas, Masqat, Bandar-e Kong and Basra) are highlighted. The pattern of the local administration, the socio-economic and political structure, the morphology of each port as well as what that meant for the development and nature of trade that was carried on in each of the ports are discussed in detail. The controlling influence of the hinterland on each of these ports is stressed, while many prevailing wrong notions about the role and importance of Europeans, the nature of trade and what drove political developments in the Persian Gulf are corrected.

- Hood, Jean "Marked for misfortune"

Marked for misfortune

xv+288 pp. Conway Maritime Press, 2003, London, UK.

Language: English.

Price: 14.99£

An epic tale of shipwreck, human endeavour and survival in the age of sail.

In the August of 1792 the East Indiaman Winterton, with her precious cargo of 300,000 silver dollars, was wrecked on a reef off Madagascar. As the ship broke up, the 300 crew and passengers clung to pieces of wreckage, eventually to be washed up, exhausted, on the beach. More than 40 of them perished in the surf.

John Dale, the second senior surviving officer, rigged up the ship’s yawl and set off with six officers to fetch help. But his efforts were marred by tragedy and misfortune. By the time he returned, alone, seven months later malaria had wiped out almost half the original survivors. And their ill luck did not stop there. War had since broken out between England and France, and on route to Madras the group was captured and imprisoned on Mauritius before finally gaining passage to India, while Dale himself was impressed into service on a French privateer, liberated by the Dutch and then taken prisoner again by the French, before reaching English shores more than two years after he had first set sail.

Jean Hood has chronicled a fascinating episode in maritime history, which has all the more resonance for being rooted in the quiet heroism, the dignity, the suffering and courage of the sailors and passengers, men, women and children whose fate it was to board the ‘doomed’ Winterton.

- Hugo Schuchardt Manuscript
- Hugh Nevill Manuscript
- Tense, mood, aspect markers and comparison with the prototypical Creole
- Grammatical variation
- Lexical borrowing and lexical exchange
- Phonological borrowing and phonological rules
- Reduplication

This work draws attention to the survival of a Portuguese based Creole which served as the lingua franca for three and a half centuries in Sri Lanka. It has survived not only Dutch and British colonial rule but also half a century of post-colonial self-determination. A previously unexplored issue is how music and dance have contribuited to the survival of this contact language.

Subjects: Sri Lanka; Indo Portuguese Creole Language 16th century-21st century.
