Since the earliest stages of human development, the sea has fascinated and entranced us. It feeds us, sustaining communities and providing livelihood, but it also holds immense destructive power that threatens to destroy all we have created. It connects us to faraway places, offering the promise of new lands and voyages of discovery, but also shapes our borders, carving divisions between landmasses and eroding the very ground beneath our feet. In this lyrical meditation on what it is that draws us to the waters #39; edge, author Wyl Menmuir tells the stories of the people whose lives revolve around the coastline and all it has to offer. In twelve interlinked chapters, Menmuir explores the lives of local fishermen steeped in the rich traditions of a fishing community, the beachcombers who wander the shores in search of the varied objects that wash ashore and the stories they tell, and all number of others who have made their lives around the sea. In the specifics of these livelihoods and their rich histories and traditions, Wyl Menmuir captures the universal human connection to the ocean’s edge. Into this seductive tapestry Wyl weaves the story of how the sea has beckoned, consoled and restored him.The Draw of the Sea is a meaningful and moving work into how we interact with the environment around us and how it comes to shape the course of our lives. As unmissable as it is compelling, as profound as it is personal, this must-read book will delight anyone familiar with the intimate and powerful pull which the sea holds over us.

Praise for the previous edition: ⠜A complete overview of the subject which does not intimidate the reader but rather spurns interest and understanding in the subject.⠝European Energy and Environmental Law Review ⠜⠦(the book is) scholarly yet accessible and very readable; thoroughly recommended.⠝Law Institute JournalDescriptionThe law of the sea provides for the regulation, management and governance of the ocean spaces that cover over two-thirds of the Earth⠙s surface. This book provides a comprehensive assessment of the foundational principles of the law of the sea, a critical overview of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and an analysis of subsequent developments including many bilateral, regional, and global agreements that supplement the Convention.The third edition of this acclaimed text has been thoroughly revised and updated, and now incorporates a dedicated chapter on natural and artificial islands. All of the main areas of the law of the sea are addressed including the foundations and sources of the law, the nature and extent of the maritime zones, the delimitation of overlapping maritime boundaries, the place of archipelagic and other special states in the law of the sea, navigational rights and freedoms, military activities at sea, marine scientific research, and marine resource and conservation issues such as fisheries, marine environmental protection and dispute settlement.The book also takes stock of contemporary oceans governance issues not adequately addressed by the Convention. Overarching challenges facing the law of the sea are considered, including how new maritime security initiatives can be reconciled with traditional navigational rights and freedoms, the need for stronger legal and policy responses to protect the global ocean environment from climate change and ocean acidification, and work on a new agreement for the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction.

Filled with the myths and legends of the deep, this new illustrated edition of the cult classic folklore collection reveals the stories that swirled on the open seas, and the customs that remain part of maritime life.The vivid, often eerie, superstitions, tales and rituals of the sea were the sailors ‘response to danger — immediate and uncontrolled. As a sailing-ship beat for weeks across the Southern Ocean, domain of the albatross, meeting no one in the lonely wastes, her crew felt an urgent need to appease the sea-gods. Even today, with engines, iron or fibreglass hulls, and less credulous seamen, much traditional sea lore has survived, especially in the fishing fleets.Stories of phantom ships and crews (from the Flying Dutchman onwards), of the perennial sea-serpent, of lonely lighthouses; rituals such as the crossing-the-line ceremonies or blessing the fishing fleet; old weather lore, sailors’ chanties and sea language, taboos and talismans, precautions taken at keel-laying or launching — all these are recorded and interpreted here.For everyone who enjoys strange stories and the chilly fascination of the unconquered sea, or thrills to watch man pitting himself against merciless elements, this book is a delight and a mine of information. Margaret Baker is unrivalled at collecting traditions of the past and showing the part they have played for generations of men in their daily lives. With brand new illustrations by Philip Harris.

In The Edge of the Sea Rachel Carson introduces us to the strange and beautiful place where the sea meets the land. She explores a tide pool, an inaccessible cave, and watches a lone crab on the shore at midnight. From these, and other, encounters she offers us not just a scientifically accurate study of the ecology of the seashore, but also a hauntingly beautiful account of the fragile balance of life found at the edge of the sea.The Edge of the Sea, like all her writing, sounds a prophetic alarm for the damage mankind is doing to the natural world, but also offers us inspiration: here is beauty, here is something worth saving.

An immersive dive into the meaning and mystique of shipwrecksThe sea is the largest museum on earth, with more than a million lost ships resting in its depths. Those shipwrecks date back thousands of years, some from civilizations long vanished, others from more recent history. Some are famous, others obscure and unremembered but each has a story to tell. In The Great Museum of the Sea, archaeologist, museum director, television host, journalist, and award-winning author James Delgado takes the reader on a personal tour of the world s wrecks, including many of the more than a hundred lost ships he has personally discovered and investigated, including Titanic, USS Arizona, and the slave ship Clotilda. The Great Museum of the Sea vividly explains how and why ships experience catastrophe at sea, and why their remains have captured our imagination for millennia. Shipwrecks engage us in many ways--we treat them as tombs, but also recover them for museums and memorials, and salvage them for treasure. Authoritative and informed by decades of shipwreck expeditions, Delgado s account offers an insider s perspective, taking the reader into the deep and behind the scenes.

A powerful collection written on the eve of the destruction of Europe by the Second World War, by the great Joseph RothHaving fled to Paris in January 1933, on the very day Hitler seized power in Germany, Joseph Roth wrote a series of articles in that hour before the end of the world , that he foresaw was coming and which would see the full horror of Hitler s barbarism, the Second World War and most crucially for Roth, the final irreversible destruction of a pan European consciousness. Incisive and ironic, the writing evokes Roth s bitterness, frustration and morbid despair at the coming annihilation of the free world while displaying his great nostalgia for the Hapsburg Empire into which he was born and his ingrained fear of nationalism in any form.

Told through powerful allegory, Shadows of the Sea is a story about grief and the winding path to healing, with help from friends, loved ones, and a little magic. On the lonely road meet two outcasts - Doris, a small but spitfire woman and Stanwick, a shy and sensitive dog. Each of this unlikely pair harbours grief, and must decide whether to stay with the pain or run from it. On their journey, the two travel through lush forests, to the eerily abandoned town of echoes, clear to the mudder sea, where they finally confront the unbearable trauma of their pasts. Cartoonist Cathy Malkasian s graphic novels are known to be crafted with layered, affecting allegory and metaphor, and Shadows of the Sea is no exception. In this story, shadows become characters themselves, weighed down with painful truth. They cannot be released until their owners acknowledge, reflect, and heal. Charged by the magic of the mudder sea, the shadows reveal the loss Doris and Stanwick have been carrying - a husband and a child - and sets them free at last.

Toilers of the Sea (1866) is a novel by Victor Hugo. Written while Hugo was living in exile on the island of Guernsey, Toilers of the Sea is a story of adventure that expresses the everyday struggles of a fool in love while capturing the changes wrought by political and economic revolution in Europe. ⠜Gilliatt lived in the parish of St. Sampson. He was not liked by his neighbours; and there were reasons for that fact.⠝ Viewed as an outsider by the seafaring community of Guernsey, Gilliat lives alone in a house deemed haunted, though no one would dare visit him anyway. Despite his skill as a fisherman, the townspeople claim he is a malevolent sorcerer, all but condemning him to a life of total seclusion. In love with the niece of a prominent shipowner, he volunteers to salvage what he can from a vessel that was wrecked some distance from the coast. Braving the elements and coming face to face with a vicious octopus, Gilliatt seizes his only chance at escaping his lonely circumstances, at finding love at last.Since our inception in 2020, Mint Editions has kept sustainability and innovation at the forefront of our mission.

As they pulled alongside they saw piles of bones in the bottom of the boat, at least two skeletonsâ ™ worth, with two survivors â “ almost skeletons themselves â “ sucking the marrow from the bones of their dead ship-mates.

These accounts give a unique perspective on the histories of societies and cultures around the world, taking in significant events like the Age of Sail, the Enlightenment and Darwinian evolution.With their excess size, claws, tentacles and bloodlust, monsters represent our greatest fears: the unknown, the dark, the natural world and even ourselves. As stories passed from generation to generation, they were analogues for dangerous weather events, foreign invaders, enemy nations, physical phenomena and real animals.Prema Arasu brings together excerpts from Beowulf, Moby-Dick and many other works by authors such as Homer, HP Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, Jules Verne, HG Wellsâ ¦ Each is brought to life with an introduction and beautifully gory artwork, making this a gorgeous book thatâ ™s sure to draw you in and drag you downâ ¦

⠜Brave and vivid.⠝⠔New York Review of BooksThese enchanting stories from early modern Bengal reveal how Hindu and Muslim traditions converged on timeless themes of human morality, social culture, and survival.  The Bengali stories in this collection are first and foremost tales of survival. Each story in Needle at the Bottom of the Sea underscores the need for people to work together⠔not just to overcome the challenges of living in the Sundarban swamps of Bengal, but also to ease hostilities born of social differences in religion, caste, and economic class.  Translated by award-winning scholar of early modern Bengali literature Tony K. Stewart, Needle at the Bottom of the Sea brims with fantasy and excitement. Sufi protagonists travel through a world of wonder where tigers talk and men magically grow into giants, a Hindu princess falls in love with a Muslim holy man, and goddesses rub shoulders with kings and merchants. Across religion, class, and gender, what binds these fabulous stories together is the characters⠙ pursuit of living honorably and morally in a difficult, corrupt world.

I was born in the sea.On the night Mum gave birth, the waves rolled towards the beach like giants, and my mother cried like the gulls. She cried out for the sea, long enough for my father to give in and carry her labouring body outside. There, she lay in a white gown on her back in the mud, her legs open in the surf. The waves carried me forth. Before even my father could grab hold of me, I had made my first acquaintance with the salty waters. Nimue knows her mother only from stories.

Throughout Britain s history, one factor above all others has determined the fate of the nation: its navy. N. A. M. Rodger s definitive account reveals how the political and social progress of Britain has been inextricably intertwined with the strength - and weakness - of its sea power, from the desperate early campaigns against the Vikings to the defeat of the great Spanish Armada. Covering policy, strategy, ships, recruitment and weapons, this is a superb tapestry of nearly 1,000 years of maritime history. No other historian has examined the subject in anything like the detail found here. The result is an outstanding example of narrative history Barry Unsworth, Sunday Telegraph

Claire goes missing the night her father agrees to give her up for adoption. Her mother died when she was born. In the tiny fishing town of Ville Rose, Haiti, she and her father are not the only ones to have experienced loss. As the poor townspeople search by moonlight for the seven-year-old girl, each remembers what death has stolen from their own lives: a forbidden love cut down by slum gangsters; a mother whose rare affluence could not save her child. In prose that shimmers with folkloric imagery, Danticat intertwines their stories to reveal a deep connection between locals of distinct classes and creeds. Her vision of modern Haiti makes the unknowable familiar; like the townspeople, the reader shares a common humanity - always caught between the darkness and the light.

Plátěná taška Paperblanks. Kolekce Irish Folklore Trilogy inspirovaná keltskou mytologií. Motiv byl vytvořen ve spolupráci s irským animačním studiem Cartoon Saloon. Rozměr 380 x 380 x 90 mm Originální umění: Původní ilustrace ze série Irská folklórní trilogie od Cartoon Saloon Období: 2008–2020 Region: Irsko Keltská mytologie a dechberoucí animace ožívají v této jedinečné kolekci papírenských produktů, vytvořené ve spolupráci s irským animačním studiem Cartoon Saloon. Silné příběhy a podmanivá vizuální stránka studia si získaly srdce diváků všech věkových kategorií. Díky působivému originálnímu umění a fascinujícím scénám je spojení, které cítíme s těmito emotivními příběhy, naprosto jedinečné.Obzvláště blízká nám je oslavovaná Irská folklórní trilogie, série pohádek nominovaných na Oscara, které diváky přenášejí do bohatých a podmanivých světů plných univerzálních témat a emocí.Studio Cartoon Saloon dává přednost tradičnímu ručně kreslenému stylu animace, a tak v jeho filmech ožívají propracované, vířivé vzory starověkého irského umění. Tento přístup jej odlišuje od současného animačního světa, který se téměř zcela přesunul do digitálního prostředí. Sdílené hodnoty a vášeň pro umění učinily tuto spolupráci zcela přirozenou. Máme obrovskou radost, že Tomm Moore, režisér několika nejúspěšnějších filmů studia, pro nás exkluzivně vytvořil originální ilustrace na přebaly této kolekce.Na tomto produktu je reprodukováno umění z filmu Píseň moře (Song of the Sea, 2009), druhého dílu Irské folklórní trilogie. Tomm Moore chtěl vytvořit moderní pohádku inspirovanou tradičními irskými vypravěči známými jako seanachai. Film čerpá z několika keltských mýtů a lidových příběhů, které jsou citlivě vetkány do jeho vyprávění.Píseň moře je jediným filmem trilogie zasazeným do moderní doby. Hlavní zápletka se inspiruje mytologickými selkiemi, kouzelnými bytostmi z irského folklóru, které žijí jako tuleni v moři, ale na souši se mění v lidi. Příběh sleduje osud malého irského chlapce, jenž zjistí, že jeho němá sestra Saoirse, kterou viní ze smrti jejich matky, je ve skutečnosti selkie. Aby zachránila kouzelné bytosti před keltskou bohyní Machou, musí se vydat na neobyčejnou cestu.Píseň moře je nádhernou a nadčasovou poctou irské vypravěčské tradici a moudrosti, která přetrvává po generace.
