Subject Description | This subject is run in two places: Malta and Tunisia. At each site we will trace similar themes in order to provide a comparative framework for the study of corsairing. These themes include the development of religious and ideological commitments in the context of the confrontation between the Ottoman empire and its European enemies; the change in the economic relationships between raiding and trading at sea; and the evolution of naval techniques of warfare. Finally, students should come to understand the relationship between religion and more general questions of culture in two centres that were both multicultural and religiously singular. |
