Maritime accidents in 18th-century Brittany

Abstract

The objective of this research is, from a Global History viewpoint, to look at Maritime Risk under a combination of factors (such as the weather, the maritime trade rhythm, crew training, the run-down state of the ship and navigation modes) in order to develop a view of an event as an indicator of a complex whole. This study is based on archives issued by various admiralties of coastal Brittany.
