Assoc.Prof.Dr. Hoang Anh Tuan “Regionalizing” national history: Vietnam's position in the East Asian maritime trade network in the pre-modern period
|
Historians of empires who study the sea or coastal areas tend to view their subjects from the mainland, assuming that the coastal and maritime areas should be treated as part of the continent. The sea is therefore often seen as peripheral and, in terms of function, subordinate to the political and cultural centres of the continent. Maritime historians use their own approach. Metaphorically speaking, maritime historians sit at the sea to view the coastal areas; they look from the sea to the shore, not from the shore to the sea. |
