- Title
The labours and golden apples of maritime history: Large-scale national and international research projects in Greece.
- Authors

- Abstract
Over the last decades, maritime history has evolved into one of the most dynamic, self-standing disciplines among Greek historical studies. The production of books and papers that probe the multilevel human interaction with the sea has been prolific, while Greek maritime historians exhibit an ever-growing presence in the international fora. This paper argues that the roots of this unprecedented boom lie in a series of large-scale research projects funded both by international and national agencies. It underlines the common features of these schemes that formulated a methodology, or rather a 'school' of maritime history, and introduces to a wider audience the most significant projects that are currently underway.
