Terra Nova
A bottom-up story of the fishworkers, whalers, First Nations, merchantwomen, oceans, and animals who together made a new colonial world in the early Atlantic In the early decades of the sixteenth century, mariners from across Europe forged a vast seasonal fishery along the coasts of the northwest Atlantic. Long before there was Newfoundland or Canada, Europeans called this floating colony Terra Nova, and they laid the foundation for a history of …
Colonizing Condiments
In seventeenth-century Britain, two authors engaged in a furious debate over colonization, nutrition, and geopolitics. Their great cause for conflict? flavored sauces and pastes. John Floyer, a university-trained physician, celebrated that people in Britain were "invent[ing] new Sauces and Pickles . . . [such] as Mangoes, Olives, Capers, Chatchops, and an Indian liquor." 1 As Floyer argued, these foods were not only tasty, but could also make peo…
Fishwork Is for the Birds
The history of the northwest Atlantic in the sixteenth century is often a story of people searching for sea life: the quest for cod, the hunt for whales, the conquest of the waters of what European mariners called Terra Nova. But while historians and archaeologists have focused on the water’s surface and what lay below, it is striking how much mariners cared about what flew above. Birds of all kinds appear early and consistently in European accou…
Terra Nova
In the early sixteenth century, European mariners established a commercial fishery and site of permanent occupation in the northwest Atlantic. What are we to call this place? This article argues that mariners developed their own concept of space through the creation of the fishery, reflecting mental maps that evolved via the practice of fishwork. It contends that rather than modern terminology like “Newfoundland,” scholars should utilize this dis…
Litus Ignotus
What do we do with coasts that have been lost? What are we to do with places and stories large and small which once embodied the lived experience of life and work on the fishing coats of North America? This essay, following the work of the historian John Gillis, explores lost coasts from the sixteenth-century European fishery in the northwest Atlantic, a place known as Terra Nova to the mariners who went there. The essay dwells upon imagined isla…
Beyond Bacalao
In the early sixteenth century, Europeans occupied the northwest Atlantic at Newfoundland and the Caribbean islands in a set of parallel colonial processes. Yet historians have been reluctant to write about Newfoundland and the Caribbean together, enforcing a north-south divide in the historiography. There is nonetheless reason to believe that a comparative-connective approach, considering both historical interconnections and important difference…
Casting the net
This article explores the role played by commercial, oceanic fisheries in European expansion into the Atlantic basin across the 15th-16th centuries. The article uses the examples of Iceland, Rio do Ouro and Terra Nova as representative of the new fishing operations, and explains how they functioned as resource extraction systems. In looking at this history, it argues that these fisheries served as crucial food production centers, forms of colonia…
Making the leap
This article is a brief response to Leonardo Marques’ essay “Commodity Chains and the Global Environmental History of the Colonial Americas.” It focuses on the practical and theoretical limitations of commodity-chain histories as away to address our political and environmental moment. It argues that commodity-chain histories must overcome the complexity of their subjects, and leap the theoretical gap between local and global scales without losing…
Shetland Sheep and Azorean Wheat
This essay examines the role of Atlantic islands as food production and maritime provisioning centers during early European expansion into the Atlantic basin, roughly 1400-1550. It offers an overview of what we know about the intentional settling and exploitation of islands for food production, and how this fit wider patterns of food security and colonialism. It departs from previous work in considering both the mid-Atlantic (Azores, Madeira, Can…
The Slow Rush of Colonization
As you near the end of Thomas Peace’s The Slow Rush of Colonization: Spaces of Power in the Maritime Peninsula, 1680–1790, the full meaning behind the evocative title becomes clear. In Peace’s tell
