This study has led to a re-evaluation of that maritime culture, showing...

The Life of the Red Sea Dhow: A Cultural History of Seaborne Exploration in the Islamic World
ISBN: 9781848858060 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For centuries the waters of the Red Sea have been amongst the most hazardous and feared in the world.

Many seafarers have been terrified by the capricious genies of the ocean, and only by prayer and ritual might crew members hope to ward off any disaster or evil that might befall their ship.
Central to this archetypal and perilous maritime scene has been the dhow, the versatile sailing craft that survives to this day... For centuries the waters of the Red Sea have been amongst the most hazardous and feared in the world. Strong or erratic winds have taken lives and bro...
